1985 944 purchase

OK you 944 guru's. Here's another personalize purchase question / blessing. Let me hear your thoughts, gripes, things to look out for aside from the ordinary water cooler, cluthces, seals for water leaks.

This propsect I'm looking at is a '85 white 944 with a dint in the front and one on the rear driver side - both pretty small. Driver's seat is ripped.

It's has 140k miles but claims to run great and "drive like a dream" He didn't mention anything about part replacements and parts history, but hope he will reply.

He's selling it for $3200 usd and said his reason is becuase he's moving to NYC and no where safe to park it.

What do you think?

Dont buy this car, its not worth it. I got my '86 for $2000. The engine only has about 90k on it, and the interior is in near perfect condition. Recently painted, but with dent on the door. I've put about $700 worth of parts into (and much personal labor), but I still consider it a good deal and a great car. I think that the price your man is asking is a little too high.

dont buy, i got my 85' 944 for $1,100
interior great not a singal scratch/ only one paint chip on whole car the size of a pencils eraser it was a great deal

dont get it. i just bought a 1983 in very good condition w/ 116k for $2,300.

Paid under 1500 for my 85.5
