Features include a black vinyl removable hardtop, a cowl-induction hood, retractable headlights, chrome bumpers, side vents, and dual exhaust outlets. The rear luggage rack was installed in 2022. Paint imperfections are shown up close in the gallery. The silver-painted 15â?³ Rally wheels feature chrome hubcaps and trim rings and are mounted with 225/60 BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires that show sidewall cracking. The rear wheels and wheel studs were also replaced during the same service. Braking is handled by discs at each corner.
