That's exactly what my wife says too. I'm having a hard time coming up with a good answer.

It's an 86 with 108k miles. Seems to be well taken care of (new water pump, clutch, belts, motor mounts, hoses, bushings, shocks, and tires) It was repainted from burgandy to yellow and is nice except for chips on the bumper. The off white interior and seats are in good condition other than a few stains on the carpets in the back. No mods other than Autothority chips. My mother found it in the paper and it turned out to be a guy that lives about a mile from my parents house. I test drove it that night, after spending that afternoon pulling the engine swap that I just bought for my jetta, and bought it the next morning. $4900

Holy ****! Is that my car?! No wonder the dealership hasn't called for a week!

What kind of yellow is it? How about some more pics.
