In Reply To $5K For Slicktop with 120k? posted by Stoggs on November 30, 2006 at 03:05 PM
     
Message What year is it? I paid $8900 for my 92 with ~74k miles on it in 1998. If it is in very good condition I would say $5k is fair.

If it has 120k miles on it, has a recent 60K mile service been completed on it. Does the owner have service records for all work done on the car. Does the owner have compression test results?

Is the interior clean and has no rips in the seats?

If the car has truely been well maintained it could easily surpass 200k miles of service. I've seen non turbos with 240k miles on them.

You should budget at least $1k for maintenance cost. Oil changes, fuel filters, air filters, and every other little thing that may go wrong like a leaking high pressure power steering hose, worn out shocks, brakes, clutch. These may all be mitigated by any recent service work done on the car.

Hope this helps.
