Wow! I guess being so close to the water, the sunroof collected quite a bit of rust...

probably going to keep an eye on it. My dads looking for one of these and i wonder how hard it would be to manual swap these. worse comes to worst it may be a parts car, but hopefully someone saves a relatively clean one like this instead of junking it.

Manual swap is super straightforward as can be, see my W58 5-speed swap link in my sig :)
