my new 3.2
rennlisters -
took delivery of my '87 carrera last weekend, wanted to share the pics. bought from the original owner in FL, 29,800 miles, and needs almost nothing except hood/decklid shocks and new floor mats (on order.) paints in fantastic shape, seats have almost zero wear. engine pulls strong, smooth.
here are a couple of snapshots taken this morning.
i can't stop grinning.

i've never seen black paint on a 20 year old car in this good of shape. its not flawless, but its pretty darn close.

Damn. And I thought I did very well finding an '85 wil 37,000 miles. Pretty close though, miles vs. years.
The grins will only get bigger!

That is just beautiful. It looks a lot like one I was looking at before I bought mine, but the one I looked at had the turbo twist wheels, I like the fuchs a lot better. Very nice find!
