I had one of those back in 1990. I killed it when i hit a steel utility pole head on at 50mph.

To it's credit, i walked away from the crash (with a quarter sized hole in my forehead)

REALLY fun little cars, good luck selling it.

Cool car. I used to have a black '84 as well, leased it from Braener Sloane for $180/mo. Your edit repeats everything in the listing, maybe fix that. Looks like a factory sunroof? I'd mention that. It only shows up a bit in one picture.

If I was in the market for another car and didn't have to schlep it across the country in two weeks I'd be all over that like Oprah on a baked ham. Great cars!

Yes, the ebaymotors as does repeat everything, that is the trouble with ebay ads, if after posting you notice a mistake you cannot go back and edit something... you can only ADD to the description. Ask me how I know now.
Yes, I have the original snowflake wheels, they are included in the sale. That is in the description. Yes, it does have a factory sunroof which I did neglect to mention, thank you.

It's all original? No engine work? I can't get on ebay to see the description. Ebay is blocked where I am.

No thanks. I've got a 2002 Honda CRV already, and a 1980 911SC and a brand new Honda Fit Sport... which is why the GTI has to go.
