The car has been modified with a stroker kit, aftermarket exhaust, and suspension upgrades. While it has a clean Carfax and many desirable features like European headlights and sport seats, it also has noted issues including an AC that doesn't blow cold, loose pillar fabric, blemishes in wood trim, and an intermittent fuel level gauge. The engine also has difficulty starting when hot and the transmission has a whining noise at low RPMs, indicating some reconditioning is required.
