I'd say the 928, both to reassure the seller that his baby is going to a good home, and to let him know that you are not inexperienced with these cars.

 

When did a 1982 SC become vintage ...

 

When they got real expensive......$15-20k for a nice one ! besides it is now 28 years old most think 25 years is "vintage" qualifies for classic plates

 

928 for sure. SQL stated the reasons

 

Cruise up on an old rusted Schwinn bicycle and wear really dirty clothes smelling of patchouli oil.

 

The 928!

 

Drive the 928 it will give the guy something to talk about......

 

1983

 

If you drive up in a newish Escape, he may think you have money.

 

Good one Bill !

 

if you drive up in the 928 the owner may think you dont have any money as its already been spent on your car

 

If you drive up in a car that relates to what you are looking at AND is in good condition, it can assure the seller that

a. you appreciate that type of car
b. you know how to treat a such car on a test drive
c. be less inclined to BS about issues
d. respect your offer more, because they know you know what these cars are worth

Now, if you were looking at a Beetle, it might not matter much...

Best of luck!

 

Your spending WAY too much thought on what should you drive. Have you picked a tie and cologne yet?

 

Hire a limo. That will confuse him.
