It does look like a well done turbo-look conversion. I like the car itself.

I was expecting a customized disaster. Car doesn't look half bad.
Crackpipe on the price though.

300+ horsepower is pretty respectable for an 'aspirated' 3.2.

More exhaust sales pitches gone bad
Nice looking car. I worked for an aftermarket exhaust manufacturer a while back so I am not surprised about the 60-80 HP gain claim on a stock 3.2. Some people actual believe the hype. It was not about the "sound" but mostly how hot the bikini girls in the exhaust calendar looked in the owner's fantasies. Isn't 85 still under SMOG in NY State?

Thought the ET 3rd light wasn't until '86?

Agree the car looks pretty clean actually. Also agree the guy is on crack on the price. Way too high.

He can claim whatever he wants about the exhaust, that car is gorgeous.
More I read lately he may not be smoking lots of the crack rock (better for all of us right?). And if it truly does check out to be a factory M491 it's probably a bargain. I'll trade him a constantly improved '75 Frankenporsche in a heartbeat!
