I am on the hunt for a 89-91 (ones with the small spoilers and back glasses correct?) esprit, preferably in the south east.

Anyone have any leads? Ready to buy once I find the right car. Have money, will travel LOL


Thanks
James

If you are willing to back up one year to a 1988, a good friend of mine is selling his on eBay right now (I am hosting his pictures)...

This car is sorted!

You could always add the spoiler yourself, but it has the glass...

I have no financial interest, blah, blah...

Thanks for the info, but I'd rather have a version with the chargecooler and spoiler already on the car.

The usual sources.

You may have to travel to get a good one. If you do find one far away, post to owners in that city to have a look at it for you. Then travel to see it and make a deal. That is the way a lot of people have bought a car. The closest one may not always be the right one for you.

Good luck,
Calvin

Also get on the yahoo groups turbo esprit list.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/turboesprit

Lurk there for a while...you can usually find guys selling their cars there, or talking about ones for sale.

It's a US list too, so generally better for locating a car in the US than PH is (sorry Ted...)

that is a really clean car(the one in Alpharetta). It is a customer of mines car and he tried to trade but I couldn't get there number wise. It is one of the cleaner looking older cars that I have seen.

I believe he wants 30 for the car. I hadn't planed on spending more than 25K on my first car.
