gotta be Matt’s car. Drive it, see if it pulls/shifts good and doesn’t make any clunks or humming. Just like any other car.

Check for all of these too, should be 4 of them.

Thats funny. My friend Matt was selling a white 04 rs with 60k on it. I doubt he traded it in since he has other cars. Could be on consignment though since I know he has an uncle that lends him a dealer plate.
