Is this a good deal?
 

1989 TII
78,000
White, blue interior.

The ad says everything works, no rust, etc.

$4,000 OBO.


What do you think?


Also, what would be decent numbers for a compression check on that engine?



Thanks.

Yeah that sounds like a pretty good deal. At 70K miles you'r about 1/2 way through the normal engine life, so you've got about 70K more to go.

I think 120 was average compression, but I could be wrong.

Yes, the blue book is about $4,500. Everything works, including the sun roof, power antenna, AC, clock, etc? No rust on the sun roof? That's pretty rare.

The compression check depends on your altitude and cranking speed. It is probably best to have a reputable rotary mechanic check out the car. The compression check process is in the "Engine" chapter of the factory service manual.

Thats an excellent deal. I saw that one on Autotrader.

But I dont like white at all (no flames please) and, well, I have a T2. It's in Wisconsin, which is really close to you. Is it yours? Its less than 500 miles from me, so not bad.

I haven't checked it out yet, so I'm not positive on the condition. Yeah, it is located in my area code. I left the person an e-mail, but got no reply yet.
