FS: Turbo '93 w/ ~ 82k miles - Now asking $5,869
I purchased this car in the beginning of the year and I'm about ready to free up some garage space to move on to something else. When I bought the car it had an overheating issue that was due to a huge leak at the exhaust manifold gasket. Since replacing it I have only been to the track one time, but the temperature gauge only started creeping on me once during 3 sessions on a 93* day. The temps were happy again after a single cool down lap :) This car is an absolute JOY to drive on the track, but I really don't get out there enough to justify keeping this. I will be moving to something a little more street friendly in the future.

I can only think of two issues with the car at the moment...
-When reinstalling the downpipe (after replacing exh. mani. gasket) I didn't ziptie the wideband cables down properly and the harness sort of melted together... It still functions perfectly, but if the wideband ever needs to be replaced you will probably need to clip the cable and solder up a new harness
-when installing the cooper scoop I scratched the front area of the hood up a little bit. I just took some very very fine sandpaper to smooth it all out and get rid of the scratches. The paint is perfectly smooth with no visibile scratches, but it doesn't have the shine that the rest of the car does. Barely visible in the photo below.
Outside of this the car has been incredibly reliable and fires up and idles perfectly every single time I get in it. The transmission still shifts perfectly. On the exterior the car is in pretty good shape considering the age... No dings or dents and the paint is in good shape outside of the usual wear & tear / rock chips on the front bumper.

No no, we all learned our lesson here. We need pics of the turbo on the car...
But come on it's got a nice turbo! And it's faster than an automatic, I think that's all the proof we need.
No but seriously this looks like a very nice car at an attractive price, good luck with the sale.
