If you want it...buy it. Could probably get it for quite a bit less

than the asking price. Be prepared to do all the work yourself and take your time sourcing parts as you find them (to save what money you can). The workshop manuals are available online and you are going to need them. If you want to drive it in the near future then certainly buy something else. The stick is fairly rare (~10-15% of production?) and the op-art upholstery is cool IMO. Will it cost a lot to fix? Probably. There are always plenty of people that say to run away from vintage porsches, 944's, vintage turbo cars, european cars, etc. many times based on conjecture and internet folklore (remember how the IMS has been overblown)...and once in a while, experience.
