If he can afford it, get it!! damn cool assed cars man.. I had one for my first car, and had two more after that. Watch for rusting out spots on the rear quarters/fenders and the floors. VERY strong in-line 6 engines. 1st ans 2nd gear ALWAYS grind a bit, its a common thing with these cars.
Extreeeemly reliable. I was never left stranded, except when I left the lights on over night once. (oops) I have heard the turbos were not quite as reliable but still good. And damn fast too!! You can kick these cars ass, and they will take it. Trust me.
(4000rpm launch... slam to 2nd at 6000, hold on caus its gona break the back loose! hit 3rd at about 5500, and then check the speedo when you go to 4th @ 4500... realise you are doing 150K in a 60K zone and nail the brakes!!<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
