So far I've thrown a new stereo in it (came with a tape deck!) and had to replace a bunch of crummy old wiring (to fix my turn signal). Next thing to look at is how it handles funny on anything slippery.

For the most part it's a sweet ride. Great interior, powered everything, heated seats.

I considered buying one of those 4 years ago. Took it to my mechanic to inspect it and it was in a dismall state (unlike yours, it had NOT been in storage for 10 years). It was leaking everywhere, etc. Body was in great shape though so I figured the guy thought he could get a good price for it and hope no one would notice the mechanical issues. Ended up going with a 1992 BMW 325i which I traded in 3 years later for the S4.

Still a great looking car today.
