Bought this beaut last September. As I live in the Boston area, it was in hibernation for a few months (given our Spring, more than I expected). Anyway she's an '86 ROW (WPOZZZ) model with 82,000 miles. 16" Fuchs with Pirelli P7000's - (40% tread left - I guess "round" is an option that isn't offer by Pirelli - can't wait for these to wear out!). Can't wait to search this board for tire recommendations. Getting ready to install new fron brakes - will probably stick with OEM Carrerra style. My upgrades to-date have been purely cosmetic - 930S steering wheel (money well spent), a Blaupunkt CD Head Unit and new Floor mats. I have also charged my A/C with HC-12 from Fox Tool and it has gone from not working at all to blowing ice cold (needed to replace front condensor fan as well).
This car is awesome. I literally look forward to driving to work every day and once there, can't wait to drive home. Need to figure out a solution to my upholstery problem (split drivers seat) as it is beginning to pinch like my '78 Chevy Nova used to! Enjoy the photos! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Very nice. What is your emission set up? Any concerns with smog inspections in MA?

Stock. Lot's of concerns here. I went for my inspection last month and had a failed gas cap - that's right - gas cap. I think the inspector took pity on me (given my horrified look - hadn't expected to fail that soon) and gave me a spare cap for the inspection. He then proceeded to run it through an emmissions test the likes of which I've never seen. I passed the test, paid my fee, put my tail between my legs and drove away as fast as I could.
