This time of year, if you are far enough north, you can find good deals.. I have seen a few nice Hot Air cars in that price range, when I was in the market recently...But, IMHO, if you want a 86'-87' in decent shape, you'll have to double that 5,000..And even @ 10,000, it may need work, and have over 100,000 miles.. I'm learning more about these works of General Motors art everyday, as they are far ahead of their time for being 27 year old cars.. you can't just throw money at it and expect it to run right.. It takes patients, and skills of analyzing the system to make em scream.. As comical as i find the scanmaster to be, I wouldn't think of owning a GN without one, at the very least..... best of luck to you.
