When I wake up in the morning, I've got my choice of about seven vehicles, (five Volvos) on what to drive to work that day. I've got kids to haul lately but find myself going to the '82 245Ti almost all the time. It's a manual and my later 245 and 740T are automatic, that's part of it I suppose.

I paid a grand for it and had to immediately rebuild the front suspension, put in a clutch, and put in a new wiring harness... Oh yeah and a heater blower motor. The leather is now ripped, there's rust appearing behind the rear wheels and the clearcoat is so shot, the car looks brown instead of red. I still love it.

If it's a manual, and intercooled, and as clean as you say, I'd buy it for $2500 in a heartbeat. Do it before someone else beats you to it.
