$40,000 1985 Toyota Corolla....educate me?

[geeman237]

This dare I say shabby 1985 Toyota Corolla GT-S with 112,000 miles just sold in the US on Bring a Trailer for $40,000 (£30,000)....I must be too old to 'get it', anyone care to educate me why? I read the comments, seems the fact that it was never 'modded' makes it a unicorn.

At least that one appears in excellent condition with almost a tenth of the mileage.
