That's a dumb question. This is the Audi V8 list; did you think we'll say,
"No, buy a BMW."?

I wouldn't buy the car for the stereo. Wheels are cheap, and can be an
upgrade *and* an visual improvement.  As long as you can hear the car run,
and maybe run the transmission through the gears, and it's cheap enough,
sure, go for it. :)  The '92 should have the 4.2L engine. That alone is
worth it if the car is cheap enough.
