A really great car, and look at the price! That's a good deal.

Does your state smog rules allow you to boost up engine power? The engine in your car is capable of a lot more horsepower.

It looks very clean. Now you have to drive it as much as you can.

That's a beautiful color! I don't think I've ever seen an '82 in that shade.

When I geter home I'll take a few more photos to give the forum a better idea of the condition. I think there was 648 made in this color that year, she looks really good for a 30 year old car, even the carpet on both sides of the console was still intact,
