Which 944 would you choose - please help???

Help with decision about buying a 944
So - I have located 3 cars that I like and looking for opinions:

1. 84, 944 with 12K documented miles. Pristine condition.
No Sunroof and Auto. Red/Black. Maint up to date.

2. 87, 944 with 20K documented miles. Showroom condition.
Has sunroof and 5 speed. Red/Black Maint. up to date.

3. 85.5, 944 with 36K documented miles. Also in awesome condition.
No sunroof with has 5 speed. Red/White Onyx Interior (rare). So pristing, the plastic on the carpet is still there from when it was first bought. Need timing belt maint. done.

Let's just say they were all $10K.

Any advice/thoughts/opinions...please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

i would choose number 2, but....

the fact that these cars have such low mileage can actually work AGAINST them - the rubber parts on the car age out - if they did not get enough "exercise" they could easily be hardened - hydraulic hoses and bushings, if original are WAY past their life expectancy

belts are a big one on this too - it's a time thing as much as a mileage thing

so make sure that those things are done or that you plan to do them
