There are plenty earlier models with 50-70k miles for little bit more with lot less wear and no motor rebuild needed.

An interesting, side-bar detail about the g50 used in 1989 is that if you increase the engine's horsepower much (which many people do, considering it is relatively easy to add around 100hp with bolt-on gear, and the car is a much improved machine then), then you are back to having a 4 speed, as 1st gear becomes all but useless.
