    Nice-looking car. Price is not unreasonable, especially since it's a dealer. I like the black exterior with red leather interior.

    Rather low-optioned.

    Base A/C (which was standard equipment), no cruise control, no trip odometer, no economy gauge, base AM/FM stereo radio, no external antenna (only in the windshield). The most unusual here, I think, is the lack of cruise and the lack of a power antenna. It's rare to not see those.

    But it does have power seats, tilt wheel, and rear defogger. Power windows were standard.

    I wouldn't turn it down.

    I never liked the windshield-integrated antenna design. Mom's Silverado got a cold morning windshield crack at the bottom, and after that, radio reception sucked.
