Default That's not Estoril Blue... Car has been repainted with the wrong shade..

Estoril Blue has a less metallic finish even in the sun... That car has been repainted sometime in its life with the incorrect shade of blue... Also, whoever re-painted it, painted over all the plastic and rubber trim ie. door handles, side rockers, chin and rear spoiler..

Default Noticed that in the pics, but figured it was the camera/lighting..seller doesn't mention..

..mention anything about paintwork. Not that it's not possible.

Default probably salvage or former accident car to repaint it like that...

Also, no reputable bodyshop that repaints cars to OEM specs would paint over the plastic and rubber trim like that..
