Well, the body is cherry, and the paint is better than my 90. The interior is not so good, with drivers seat leather rough and backseat with small tears. Headliner is trashed due to leaking sunroof (full of tree leaves, needles, gunk). Motor idles well, has an annoying click when cold near distributor which goes away at warmup. Turbo has been replaced once with a TURBONICS or some such aftermarket unit. Overall with a headliner & functioning sunroof drain the interior will work. The car is a little squirrely when you accel hard and back tires are junk, so I can not judge more than steering is tight (rack replaced). I was a little surprised that the Turbo did not pull harder than it does; gets into the yellow boost about needle straight up to 5K & no more. Various vac. lines look suspect as car has sat for a year + due to divore. I expected more with Turbo boost but perhaps something is wrong with something therein.
So long as tranny doesn't puke I think this would make a good car for my kids to drive once I clean it up.
