It's the silver D pillars, surely they left the factory black and looked a million times better for it?
There’s 3 dots on each side on the back of them, screw on trim rather than resprayed?

So far I have four gradually increasingly desperate messages from him demanding my phone number :lol:

I’ll wait until late tonight and then tell him I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want to upset him too much.

Sounds like his wife is making him sell it due to the Covid struggles, 200 IQ plan of listing it at £1.5 million - "But honey no one wants to buy it, we better hold onto it" ;)

Same, I have a thing for Malaise era cars and that's a really interesting one. Shame about the front end though, the Pontiac beak can lead to some real unfortunate looking cars.
