There are some obvious issues, like the engine dress-up, the black hood hinges and inner-fender braces, the horrible tail-panel mismatch, etc. One could fix most of that during the repaint this car desperately needs; Sub Lime never looked good on an E-body and looks even worse on one that was never available in that color. The wheels and tires are just gross, and either it's not a Rallye or someone owes it a Rallye cluster. The fender scoops only came on cars with the tach cluster.

Also, there's probably another 100+HP in that engine with a proper tune, but I'm sure the owner believes in the "self tuning" fallacy. It should be putting down close to the number stated at the rear wheels.

Knock ten grand off the price for the needed repairs, repaint, and tuning, and now you're talking.
