'84 244 TiA VS '79 242 GT 200

posted by  someone claiming to be gtlover on  Thu Oct 31 09:37 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Having a beater '78GT and a fairly nice '83 244Ti daily driver, I say rust is the ultimate enemy. The power from the turbo is great (even with bad turbo seals - I use a quart every other week) but the GT handles better! I say go for the GT, and keep it clean - rust-free GTs are hard to find, especially up north. You can always do an engine swap later.
