I'm guessing you are talking about the rotors? Just like DJ said on the lugs - very normal for rust to show on the rotors if undriven. They'll clean up nicely when driven through the twisties....

Grizz, it's a grey top. Looks pretty nice. It has a couple rough spots, but doesn't leak. The plastic window needs some TLC. The car also had the windscreen.

Jeff, I'm on the north end of Austin, almost in Round Rock. Austin is a great place to live, but traffic sucks pretty bad if you have to go any distance during the normal hours. I work a late shift, so I miss traffic both ways. The Hill Country starts on Austin's west side... plenty of twisty roads out that way!

Smagerstein, looks like I got your car's twin! I really think it looks nice with grey on grey with a grey top!
