Thumbs up

Ok I went to look at an 88 Turbo. The body has some dents and scratches but nothing major. It has around 150000 miles but had a rebuilt 15000 ago. Rims, gauges, exhaust, and apexi safc I think, bigger injectors. Doesn’t have air condition or any type of music playing device, some rust on sunroof also the sunroof needs help. The clutch is hard to push down because something is broken. Should I buy this for 4800? Please keep in mind that I live in Hawaii so rotary cars are hard to find.

that's a lot of money for a car that has issues



tell the guy you want to take it to a mechanic to have the clutch looked at before you buy

What kind of rims and exhaust? That might change the overall value. But 4800 is a little steep.

Being in Hawaii may have a huge impact on the price. Isn't everything more expensive there?

Racing beat exhaust but I want to put in Apexi GTC I don’t know about rims but they look nice and yes most things in Hawaii cost more because of shipping also I found out that Hawaii has no emissions testing. He boosting 10 psi out of the 88 safely

If you're buying the car in the 48 states, and then shipping it to Hawaii for an additional $2k . . . . . . a dented, scratched, rusted S4 TII with a busted clutch, that's missing it's AC, and has a hole in the dash where the radio goes sounds a little high at $4800. But then again, I haven’t seen the car and the written description may not accurately represent the beauty that’s portrayed in person.
