I'd counter that early cars are more difficult. ( back to 94 ish when the 38 pin under hood connector came out ) With a star tester or a really good aftermarket tester you can access all systems just fine. And, you don't have to deal with CAN window modules failing.

There is a certain a** ho** attitude that goes along with "cold air intake" , modified exhaust on a non sporty car. If it has tinted windows in an area that isn't sunny much, license plate hiding cover and an ash tray filed with butts, . . run away. For examples of this kind of car, look at in the parking lot of a muscle head gym.
