This car has only had two owners, myself and my father (who gave it to me). He bought in new from the dealer. I was slowly rebuilding it but time, money, kids and work have essentially stopped the project. Time to face reality and downsize. Looking for a good home for it.


Grey Leather Interior
Rebuilt Automatic Transmission (hand built, w/shift kit, no issues)
Body Stiffend with Keystone Subframe connectors and shock tower braces
Rebuilt suspension (standard springs, Koni shocks, I have an assortment of springs and shocks I've used over the years that can go with it.)
Relatively new steering rack
All engine seals and hoses replaced (doesn't leak)
Valves adjusted and all sensors replaced
Engine has been completely gone through, everything short of a rebuild (which it doesn't need)
New Engine Mounts
Alpine stereo w/Bluetooth and iPhone interface, new speakers all around.
Upgraded w/94 Engine Computer
Upgraded w/95 "Hard Button" climate control Unit
LED Tail Lights
New Front Head Lights


Needs some interior & exterior cosmetic work.
Sunroof works
A/C was converted, works but as usual with conversions is underpowered
Car is very mechanically sound.
Engine is very strong but completely stock.
Never raced nor driven particularly hard.

Have probably $10,000 in the car between parts and labor. All work done by a master mechanic who knows what he's doing.

Looking for a good home for it w/someone who appreciates it. Car is in Marin County California (north of San Francisco)

Asking $3000 but will entertain all offers.

Pictures are here (let me know if you want to see something specific):

Just refreshing the listing. Car is still for sale.
Any particular reason why she isn't garnering much interest?

Scheduled and expected maintenance (and maintenance to get the car back on the road when the tranny or steering craps out) doesn't really increase the value of the car. We'd expect a car to have a working transmission, good struts, no leaks, working A/C (R12 conversion mandatory), EATC without holes...

General buyers won't appreciate that 60K services have been done (and timing belt & water pump are due). My 93 has the nearly the same upgrades + brakes (I think I even spy my endlink specs), except better looking leather, and I know that if some other driver totals my car it will be a fight to get insurance to pay off enough to buy a similar SHO.

$3000 will also buy a 2000's Audi A6 or Volvo S60 which are much sharper looking sport sedans - I've been considering one for the looks, but don't need a money pit.

If I had a home for it, I would be interested in purchasing it. But as it stands, I have no way to make sure it is taken care of properly. I am sure many in the community feel similarly.
