Thanks for the video. May be a dumb question at the 11th hour here, but this car does run and drive correct? A driving/cold start video would be great. This is a great car, I'd just like to see and hear it running. Thanks!

This is one clean 89. Mileage is the killer with C4s... everything seems to wear out at 85k, so there are quite a few miles before everything needs replaced... Clutch, wheel bearings, shocks, u-joints, head gaskets, valve seals, tune up. The biggest thing will be the clutch. The dual mass flywheel is no longer available, and cannot be machined. Some claim they can, but in general, they shouldn't. The dual mass has a lifespan and that is about 125k miles before the internals fail. So why spend all that time and money doing the clutch at 90k and having to replace it again in 30k miles? Makes no sense. There is a technique here... you need to get a single mass flywheel and it needs to be match balanced to the dual mass. Good machine shops should be able to handle this. You see, the dual mass is the final balance at the rear of the engine, if the new flywheel isn't right, vibrations will ensue. 1989 is a very good year, the suspension has been revised and all the chassis bits are interchangeable between 1989 and 1996 - brakes, shocks, etc. The Atari dash is the best iteration, with excellent lighting and much better durability. And I love the seats! Super comfy. To summarize, keep up on the issues, maintenance is important and don't let it slide, if you do, it will cost you much more later...
