Went and test drove the 91 244 today. The only thing I have to say is when you take the turbo and the clutch out of a 240, they become a lot less fun to drive. There were a lot of minor annoyances with the car, Temp didn't come up to normal range, valves were a little noisy, it pulled to the right, A/C was non functional. Pretty minor stuff for the most part. There's a good stack of receipts in the glovebox. I found one for struts about 50K ago. I might offer $2900 and walk away if he doesn't accept. Really what I am wondering is how can you guys with normally aspirated automatic 240s love them so much?
