Hey guys, looking at a 164S close to my house and am having a tough time wrestling the decision to buy. I think i can get the price where I need it but its got a bad water pump, which really doesn't let me get into it at all. When I was able to drive it, less that 2 mins, the clutch felt a little wierd (soft maybe, like it didn't want to come up that fast). All indications were that this car was well cared for over its life, seats and in great shape, paint is beautiful, new exhaust system and almost all the electronics work (including the stepper motor and all windows).
Should i even be looking at this thing still? What i'm afraid of is getting into a car and having to do a clutch and a water pump (and timing belt, adjustment, etc...).
Any thoughts? How big a deal is the clutch? Could it be a master cylinder or is it likely the actual clutch itself? Should i just walk away?
Thanks!
