Its tuned. Did the car come with a programmer (SCT XCal 3, X3 or X4, for example)?
Measure the diameter of the front/rear sway bars. We'll be able to tell you if stock or not. Could also take a picture and we may be able to tell. For rear control arms, check to see if they are beefier billet style. Could also take pic and we can tell you right away.
For exhaust, most people remove the rear cats. or change mufflers. If only one set of cats, then there was exhaust work. I have pics from when I did this recently in the exhaust forum. The stock mufflers look ugly and I believe are "ribbed" on the outside. If there are smooth mufflers, then it has aftermarket mufflers. Usually aftermarket mufflers have the manufacturer printed right on them.
Here ya go............

Pics of the underside. Front control arm is about 4.5 inches in circumfrance
Not stock rotors and from the pic the C/A's look like Metco's. Hard to tell about the sway bars w/o knowing the dia. in mm. I don't remember if Addco is stamped on the bigger bars. Can't see the Watt's link but if the C/A's are Metco the Watt's link probably is as well if it was changed.

Those look like stock lower control arms
Look how thin they are
If they were metco, they would be billet aluminum not stamp steel
Maybe tell us how skinny the rear lower control arms are??

Agree with Bryan, the rear control arms look like the stamped stock ones.
Exhaust looks stock as those are the stock mufflers.
Can't tell on sway bars. Addco's aren't stamped with their name but everyone that I've seen usually have a white sticker with the part number. 690 for the rear and 2196 for the front. In doing a close up on one of the pics, the rear end links look stock, but that's not to say they weren't reused.

Looks like everything underneath is stock. Stupid clean stock.

Drive it nicely, I may want to buy it off you one day.
Looks clean. I bought mine last Feb. with 40k and I thought my miles were low! Congrats on the find and welcome to the site.
