Eight might be a bit high, but the miles are low. If it's been painted, you can do a few things with it and not get too bent about originality. I had an '85 and I loved it. It reminded me of my later '97 Dinan M3. It wasn't a powerhouse, but it did everything well.
The forged bottom end can handle alot of boost! There is a decent aftermarket for it. Take that big T3 turbo (I think that's what it had) and do a T3/4 hybrid...heck, there is probably something way tricker available nowadays, and boost the heck out of it.
It's definitely unique....I see a few beaters around, but haven't seen a nice one at a show in years.
