I bought a 95 that had had a belt failure and had the heads rebuilt and all put back together at my favorite indy for under $2000. Runs fine. I have to agree with the others: no way I'd dump 5 or 6k into that car. Unfortunately with the 2.5 V6 it's not just belt failure. I had a cam gear come off on my 94 which wiped out that bank of valves. I just had an idler pulley bearing failure on my 95; fortunately we caught it in time before further damage was done. The V6 is a great running little engine, but I'll be trading for a 900 with a 4 cyl turbo motor as soon as I can.
