I can't really tell from that pic, but is it a brownish color? I have only seen 1 that color, I think it was an 86. I almost bought it too. Maybe I would have if I had known how rare the color is, but I wasnt crazy about it and I think the car had a bum tranny-fluid was more brown than pink. Worked out, cause I got mine for half the price!
