Mine is a 95 and I bough it in Feb. 2011 (although it didn't arrive until the end of May). It had a 177k miles on it witch I didn't consider that much for the price I got it for and the state of the car and since all my other vehicles ware usually well over 200k miles I considers it low mileage. 
I paid just under $5k for it and had about another $2k expenses shipping it overseas and taxes and stuff.
Mechanically there was nothing wrong with the car. Got it here and it started right up and has been running ever since. But there was some cosmetic stuff to do mostly to the interior and I still haven't worked up the nerve to try and buff it because I'm scaredI'll screw something up.
Here's the thread I wrote what was done.

I purchased a 1994 Bright Aqua Metallic coupe for the wifey last April for $6000.00. I put in new seats, opti, water pump, plugs, wires, and about 1000 misc. items that were non functioning / broken / not working / fubar.
I have put in $3000 on the re build. Car had new tires, brakes, weather strip, and carpet. The car still has the original paint that came back pretty well. She has 168,000 on the clock and runs perfect!

I DID save all the worksheets from the pre-order meetings we had with the fleet sales girl at the dealership. Even the window sticker is like new.

Bought my '85 March of 2012, paid an even $5,000. Black exterior, graphite guts, 130K miles. Re-finished exterior about five years earlier as well as a freshened up original engine. Runs strong, looks above average with a few minor imperfections in the paint. Recent tires, everything worked, except the cruise, which was a disconnected vac hose. Worn, but presentable, drivers seat cover and faded cargo area carpet.
PO had attempted to sell for a couple of years at $8,000 with no luck, older guy with developing health issues. Upon getting home I changed fluids, oil change, and tune-up, dyed the carpeting. This year brakes, rear axle u-joints, and new seat covers.
Car is bone stock with exception of muffler eliminators, a blast to drive, and receive comlpiments on a regular basis.
