Coming in hot! I didn’t photoshop any images. I darkened an image with my iphone to highlight the area I was discussing (per request mind you). You can critique my approach all you want, but the tail of that car has filler around it.
To each their own but the benefit of a forum like
this to to help buyers make an educated decision. They can use the info that I posted to seek clarification from the seller. Once they buy the car they get no critique from the forum, only support. There is probably enough body filler on the collective forum member cars to fill an olympic sized swimming pool. It doesn’t take away from the aesthetics but it is nice to know it is there and what might be underneath. You act as if expressing concerns of rust or accident damage is a taboo.
I’ll look at those CSL’s later to appease my curiosity. The first one is a highly modified basket case CSL batmobile tribute aimed to capitalize on the e9 price bubble. It went from asking $90K to $250K in 3 years. I don’t see evidence of a sunroof but like many profit-oriented sales the pics are few and far between.

Yes, a handful of CSLs came with factory sunroofs.

As far as your comments on the body, you state,
"I’m really not trying to judge, just inform buyers since they are looking at pictures on a keyboard. I am not a body guy or used car purchaser."
So you stated for the record that you are not an expert.
We all happen to be looking at the pictures on a keyboard. The difference is you are enlarging by 1000%, then photoshopping and then claiming you saw the Virgin Mary on the tail end of the car.
The listing states it was painted in the 90s, so it's possible the trunk lid was not adjusted properly? Maybe it did have some work, but your previous distorted photo work is very misleading.
We have to be careful with our opinions without actually seeing the car.
Just saying...
