86 Coupe GT

[MARTIN H.ALPERT]

I had a Audi dealer examine an 86 coupe I was considering buying for under $
2,000 which seemed reasonable. His report says the car needs/has
 warped exhaust manifold,
 exhaust system,
 bent rim, 
 top struts,
 engine runs rough
 parking brake cable
 sway bar need to go to body shop
 other small things

Without knowing the cause of the rough engine I would have about $ 3,000 to
fix everything plus whatever the engine ends up costing.

Is a mechanically perfect( for a 15 yr old car) Audi Coupe GT worth spending $
5,000 on. I've looked at 90-91 20v coupes and they just don't appeal to me
like the 82-87 GT and my mechanic forbids me from buying an ur quattro even if
it will put his kids through college.

Thanks for your opinions,
