This is not the one that I thought may have been at Hanks years back.

I think its nice. As to value. Yeah, it *should* be worth $10k...but realistically I think its more like $8k in this market. We have only seen a few coupes hit the $10k mark or better. One was that super low mileage 86 on Hanks site with the weird door panels which was for $12k.

You might be surprised, but I think coupes are going up in price. The white one I bought was over 11k... Hank also had another which needed a ton of work and wasn't a heck of a lot cheaper. This car seems to be worth at least 10k. Yes the market sucks today, but that is based on the economy and not the desirability of asc cars.

I need education here! Were the subframe connectors from ASC or added after ? If from ASC why they did not put them on the verts.

I still have the rear floor mats for mine. They are a faded green color now but I still have them. Pics in my album, page three.

glad I got my 85 for 5k! and my rust free 86 Euro #10 for 2k
not too bad.
But 10 for that is very fair.

I have my rear mats in the Coupe, too. They have brown packaging paper over them to prevent fade. My front mats are in fact "down" in place, but I have thick bath towels over them, to keep them clean. ( I know, I know, what's keeping the towels clean? I Know...)

Interesting notables:
Since it's a 1985, it was not able to have Power Door Locks/Fuel Door Lock & Release & Power Hatch release

I disagree my Blue 85 Coupe has Power Door Locks/Fuel Door Lock & Release & Power Hatch release Doors were not replaced and since I bought the car in 1990 I doubt someone went through the trouble to add power to the fuel door in the aftermarket.

All it does not have is cruise.

I wish my car was in the shape this one is though. The bottom of my doors look terrible as does the dash pad.

Well, Mandra, after 22 years of compiling a pretty big registry, I am 95 % sure that yours is the only such example found with Pwr. Locks! You are lucky

Just looked at your list from 1991 that you started in 87. Yep I still have it. The car is on there but only lists Air Conditioning as an option. Should have mentioned the rest

i think all cars got the fuel door. my car has cruse, fuel door, windows, and a/c.

i added a power hatch and plan to add power locks. but no switch. im going to use a remote key fob so it will look some what stock.... till you pop the hood

Good thing you said 95% remember i had to send you a copy of a build sheet on one i had years ago to convince you? It had power door locks and hatch release from factory. So there is at least 2! Or could be same one? last time i sold it to a guy in north Ga. And i owned it twice!
