I dunno man, seems a bit high on the price from my experience.

turbocoupes normally go for $1k-$2.5k, hell mint 87-88's normally only pull about $4k its a sad sad fact most people just buy these and rip the drivetrains out for mustang transplants...like I did.

I know these cars and i know what im looking at.... this car runs low 8's in the 1/8th with a good tune.... ive seen a few go for 3800$ and such with stock motors and just 5 lug conv. and cobra r's... like i said... i just threw the price out there... i really am just looking for trades... My goal would be a clean rex
