I used to own one in 1991 (my frist car!). Had to buy another, but was always picky about year (wanted 88+) and transimission (only wanted stick). I've owned many cars, but will say this one is TOUGH to find. Anyways, this one is a 1 owner car sold to me by a woman in Michigan. Funny to see the carfax at "1 owner 25 years" lol. It's obviously Silver, black interior, and it's a 5 speed, a little over 38k miles. I will post new videos later, I just got the car yesterday and these videos are right after I washed it post transport, I really want to detail it but that's for the weekend. Hope you like. I reallllllly love this car lol. Ahead of its time...

Thats a great find! It's almost exactly how my first car was back in 95. But I had the bergundy cloth int.

Good luck. Hope you have lots of fun with it.

Silver when it's right, is hard to beat.

yes:) I spoke to the owner and worked a deal outside of ebay. I had to have it! As I said, been looking a while. Wanted black, but this was too clean to pass up. Onlyyyyyyyyyy unfortunate thing is the seat bottoms have the shrink in the leather which have the typical flaw, but the seat backs and rears are supple!!!! i was joking with my boy as to what the possibility of just that section being dry...maybe a window to the barn directly above?

 

 

I need a shift boot (I have the old boot but it is decaying, I plan on getting new leather on the plastic base), and I already have a replacement for the seats (OEM).

 

The interior is amazingly clean, will update pics when i get her all cleaned up,I currently dont own an upright so I cannot vaccuum any of my cars!

lol!! yes that's it. the seats on that car are literally perfect (i had the seller send me a ton of pics). I didnt even pay attention to the rest of the car lol. Interior going into my silver car. BUT, little did I realize how clean the champagne one is. It was stored from 2003 on. My silver car was a summer car. so i have no rust just as the seller said (great people by the way), and the interior is beautiful and leather is supple, but the seat bottoms are dry!!! sun must have been beating down on it where it was situated. :)

 

i feel violated lol
