89-92 are better looking IMO! Better taillights, better spoiler, slightly lower suspension and more attractive interior, like the gauge cluster and steering wheel. The front bumper looks good from any year, but I prefer the 89+. Check this forum and other forums for cars for sale. They are more likely to be taken care of than others (in most cases). That being said, I got mine off of autotrader... There are a few problems that plague the 7m, the headgasket was not torqued enough from the factory causing most to blow headgaskets before 100k. Replace it with a metal headgasket, arp hardware torque it down and you're good to go. Oil level is very important as well, I spun a bearing on my old car and had rod knock too... Other than that, you're good to go! Make sure its a five speed of course.
