they said it has been parked in the yard for a year? i'd definetely get the bushings checked, look for spiderwebs (seriously). bugs will tend to start building homes after about six months of non-movement. check the engine bay too for any signs of dried and cracked hoses. if it opens on the car, look in it.

well i got my 89 lxi with 140k on it for 800 and it was with a new tranny, new tires and the extra rims came with it too so yah 800 sounds about right depending on the condition of the car

no.... its a dx and its been sitting for a year which means the brakes are probably rusted solid you just shouldnt buy any car thats been sitting for more than 6 months.... find a nice lxi or sei

Since he's asking $800 for it, I was planning to offer him $700 which seems to me to be a fair price as long as he's not hiding anything.
