A "classic" ebay listing. If you read what the seller says and what the pictures actually show, you find:

- It's both a "1982" and a "1983." Or maybe it's a 1986 or later, given the alloy wheels, headlights, and body side moldings that appear in some photos but not others.
- It's been pre-pimped for your cruzin' plezur with a complete overcoat of metallic blue paint.
- The dash is cracked in some photos but not in others; Photoshop or two different cars?
- Air filter has been safely removed to eliminate those pesky routine maintenance costs of a filter, housing bracket, and housing mounts. And the turbo compressor now has unimpeded access to combustion air from the engine compartment (not to mention dirt, leaves, water, etc.) to maximize power and efficiency.
- Best of all, when used in "downhill mode" (second photo), it might actually achieve 60+ mpg!
