ITGuyLevi@programming.dev 5 days agoActually it was 13 years old, it was one of the 2013’s that somebody absolutely loved. They installed the starlight headliner mod, ingen intake, and invidia exhaust. It’s got the bespoke radio (sadly the 2013 bespoke that didn’t have native apps, it was powered by zypher), and the optional bazooka sub in the trunk; when I bought it there was zero base because someone tried to wire in a kicker and ended up starving the signal so neither sub was working.
The only gripe I really have with it is the black velvet like stuff they covered the interior with and the insanely worn gear shifter.

Are the seats black velvet? That sounds rough in the summer. Hot and slipping across a smooth, sweat soaked surface is, perhaps, the least comfortable way to drive. In my opinion, anyway.
That is an incredibly sweet deal, though. It sounds like you got someone’s leisure car. I can’t think of another reason for all of the mods and mileage being as low as it was. It must have been tough for them to give up.

No the seats are normal, I guess they didn’t like the cheap plastic feel for the trim (like silver-grey accents around the radio/vents/door cards) so they glued on some sort of fabric. It really doesn’t look too bad, but I’ll probably bring that part back to stock, or swap it for nicer pieces meant for the BRZ.

I wish you luck, if you try another veneer. My friend ended up having his new pleather bubble up on him twice before swapping to cloth, which also bubbled up once before being fixed
