I had a 1990 900S and would still have it except it was stolen and totalled. Now I'm looking at a 1992 900 turbo, >175K miles, that won't shift into 1st gear (synchro muff?) or a 1987 900S that runs with new transmission and clutch. The interior of both cars is about what you'd expect, ratty. The 87 needs a paint job wheras the 92 is very clean. The 92 is about $400-500 cheaper but a transmission repair will be very costly. The '87 is ready to go and much easier to work on. But the turbo and newer '92 is more appealing. I'm trying to decide which way to lean. What would you do?
