Opinions/Thoughts on a 2nd 7 purchase, please!

Hey everyone. This is going to be a bit meager of a first post, but I'm curious to see what you all think.

There is a black s4 'vert parked at a gas station/mechanic up the street from me. The top is in decent condition, but the body seems straight... The problem is, I think its been sitting for over a year. That obviously brings a whole set of problems into the picture, but do you think they would be huge issues? I was thinking about offering them a few hundred for it, but aside from oil change/changing spark plugs I'm completely inept under the hood... Sound like a bad investment?

My current 7 is an '86 base model, I love it, and I'd love to have a sister car to drive during the long summer season here in CA.
