As for the drivers seat, the left bolster was replaced a couple of years ago and more padding was added to the bottom end. Otherwise, it looks like a worn in, but very good looking baseball glove. 👍 Passenger seat hasn’t had too many users and looks almost factory fresh.
Also, headliner on targa top was replaced as well by same place that did the seat fix. Looks really good.

As expressed in the base post, I've been back in the states for a few months. Now that the weather is better, I want to get the car out and drive it.
As of this past week, all the fluids (except for the power steering) were professionally changed and the car was state safety inspected. Ready for driving again!
Also of note--and to be completely open about things--the left rear quarter panel unfortunately developed a few clear coat bubbles that have popped and the right side of the hatch below the glass developed some clear coat peel. (Ugh. Nice timing.
) This is original clear coat/paint (almost 22 years old from manufacture) and has never been worked on or covered with film as the front end has been protected. The paint underneath these affected areas seems fine.

It appears since I am new that the private messaging is not enabled yet. I just checked the intro message I received, and it's stated in there. Not sure how long that stays in effect.
