After browsing through Pistonheads Classifieds this morning I have started to notice that there are more and more bargains to be had when it comes to 1980's/early-90's Coupes. You can pick up some pretty exotic gems for much less than £5k on cars that a few years ago you might have been paying much nearer the £10k mark. So in honour of this I think a picture thread is in order to maybe plant a seed in one or two of your heads. Enjoy. ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/AlfaGTV.jpg) Alfa-Romeo GTV ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/AudiCoupe.jpg) Audi 80 Coupe ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/BMW850CSL.jpg) BMW 850 CSi ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/BMWe36.jpg) BMW E36 M3 ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/CamaroIROC.jpg) Chevrolet Camaro I-ROC ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/CorvetteC4.jpg) Chevrolet Corvette C4 ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/FiatCoupe.jpg) Fiat Coupe ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/FordCougar.jpg) Ford Cougar V6 ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/FordMustang.jpg) Ford Mustang 4th Gen ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/HondaPrelude.jpg) Honda Prelude BB4 ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/JagXJS.jpg) Jaguar XJS ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/LanciaMonteCarlo.jpg) Lancia Monte-Carlo ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/LotusExcel.jpg) Lotus Excel ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/MazdaRX-7FC.jpg) Mazda RX-7 FC ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/MercedesCLK.jpg) Mercedes CLK W208 ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/Mits3000gt.jpg) Mitsubishi 3000GT ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/Nissan300zx.jpg) Nissan 300zx ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/RenaultA610.jpg) Renault Alpine A610 ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/SubaruSVX.jpg) Subaru SVX ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/ToyotaSupra.jpg) Toyota Supra MKIV ![](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/RS1100/VauxhallCalibra.jpg) Vauxhall Calibra 4x4 Obviously there are loads more out there, so feel free to add your own.

They look incredibly good in that colour, although I think I prefer the earlier ones. I'd love a cabrio version one summer!

I've had a couple of these - not the (apparently superior) 20v turbo, but the 16v turbo which basically has the Delta Integrale engine. They're a lot of fun, but very, very brittle. Incredibly rapid, but epic torque-steer and the constant feeling that it's going to disintegrate around you. Oh, and don't buy one with a ropey clutch, it'll cost you a bloody fortune to fix! ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png) ![](http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a106/DBevis/coop1.jpg) ![](http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a106/DBevis/coop2.jpg)

Ah the Subaru SVX, Been Hankering for one of these for a long while now, Saw one last week at a car show i went to, Sadly it was leaving the car park as i turned up so no pictures, Think the number plate was something like J1 SVX, Awesome ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png) ![](http://api.ning.com/files/Re7GTQlS7RyiVskr-m38OqwC0rVSM1K6L8W6ChZozoOLGsK7g0TbMAmr2TLtUJMPfDTlnGbVHEQr42dWkI1mvPG*hsdTyVo4/subsx05.jpg)

This is an amazing thread! I want soooooo many of these cars! ![](http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq233/swinnyjr/SubaruSVX.jpg) A car so underrated it makes the 3000Gt look common and overcelebrated! I think also we need to add this one to the list: ![](http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq233/swinnyjr/HondaCRX.jpg) Not quite as powerful but still in this catagory.

What about the best 80's coupe ever, Porsche 944 turbo. Do you think cars like the RX7 whould look the way they do without the 944?? ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y91/45rugdub/_DSC0064-1.jpg) ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y91/45rugdub/Musche.jpg)
