Default They were only $26K NEW! But, they were fantastic to drive.

I had a 1982 and loved it. Had to sell when my second kid came along, there was room in the back for two kids but not in car seats.

The transaxle/De Dion rear end was about the best suspension setup you could buy in 1982. The front was double A arm torsion bar. The engine can be upgraded to 3.0 easily and will stretch to 3.2 liters. The V6 was still in production until recently and may still be for all I know.

Fabulous cars for the money and sadly most are rusted out hulks now.

Default For racing you don't need one nearly so nice. Come visit and take one home;-)

Default 89,951 S

Modding up to a reliable 500 + HP has been done. And handling is incredible... But if you don't do the work yourself it will make your S4 maintenance seem like pocket change.

Default I think I've decided to go this direction...

Now to do more research into all the **** that breaks and I've already seen that the modification parts are so ****ing expensive. All I know is Comptech (from my old Honda days).

Default Can't see the pic from work but guessing its an S2K. I've got a coworker with a nicely modded one

the comptech supercharger is friggin amazing man... well worth the money IMO.

I've got to take it for a few laps around the track and I can tell you those things are like go carts. Even stock they beg to be abused on the track, add suspension, brakes and a little moer power up top and you're laughing!
