82 volkswagen scirocco
86 mazda 626 2.0 8v turbo
88 mazda 626 2.2 12v turbo
88 mazda 323 1.6 16v GTX AWD turbo 240hp
86 porsche 944 turbo

I like them all, really. They are all different. The vw had a very solid and german feel. To this day, many rate it as one of the best "feeling" cars, and I still see it occasionally mentioned in magazines when comparing steering wheel feedback. The 88 626 was a very solid, fast car that was nice to ride around in and could pull 6.3 0-60s, though mine was a strong runner compared to the other ones my friends had. The gtx was a beast, extremely light and quick, and could launch like a bitch, though I needed to put suspension in it. Extremely rare, very fun little car, and practical too with the 4 seats and large hatch. The porsche is the fastest, best handling, best looking and most expensive, though I cant overwhelmingly pick it. I had good times in all. Dont make me choose!

Cool, is he selling it? I want one again! Good luck on the ur-quattro lol. Not only are they very rare but very pricey nowadays.

i know, its too bad they are getting expensive, but ive seen a few for like 1 or 2k in restorable shape, not too bad considering its a hand built supercar.

I had an 84, with the old body style. A really great car, especially in the snow. But yes, IMHO the 944 is definitely a step above the Audi GT.
