Need moar/better pix.

Looking for my phone I can't even tell for sure, but is it black?
 
It's still a feeler, but getting closer to be serious. Carfax and pics of last year's sideswipe attached. It was only cosmetic scuffs. Car is going to be serviced this Friday 11 September. Special BARFers get a special discount. And BARF gets a lil'sumthin'.
 
Car got serviced today. Oil, spark plugs, front brake discs and pads.

Special BARF price in the OP. BARF gets 1%.

New front tyres, all wheels balanced. Nearly $3,000 of new stuff in last week. This car is ready to put a thousand smiles on your face.
