The car left the factory finished in Fjord Blue Metallic, and various body panels were repainted between 1987 and 2003 following corrosion repair and installation of a replacement nose panel.

Silver-finished 13″ steel wheels wear bright covers and are mounted with 185/70 Kumho Solus TA11 tires. The car is equipped with Bilstein shocks and struts, and braking is handled by front discs and rear drums. The primary brake cylinder was replaced in May 2016, and recent work is said to have included replacement of the front wheel bearings as well as the rear drums, brake shoes, and wheel cylinders.
The cabin features front bucket seats that were fitted with replacement padding and black vinyl upholstery in May 2011 by G&L Auto Interiors of Eloit, Maine. The rear bench as well as the door and side panels are trimmed in blue vinyl. Features include a Concord cassette stereo, gray carpets, and blue carpeted floor mats. The clock and blower fan are inoperative, and the seller notes play in the shifter lever.
The three-spoke steering wheel fronts VDO instrumentation consisting of a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and a combination gauge. The speedometer and odometer were repaired in October 2019, and the turn signal indicator bulbs are inoperative. The five-digit odometer shows 3k miles, and is believed to have rolled over twice. True mileage is unknown.
The replacement 2.0-liter inline-four was installed in May 1985 by Clyde Bartlett BMW of Manchester, New Hampshire.

The battery is secured with a cable tie, and the cold start valve is wired to the starter solenoid. The car is equipped with aftermarket headers as well as an ANSA sport exhaust.
