I've seen a few selling for around $5k, and I imagine VW-based parts are pretty cheap and easy to find.

Eh, maybe, it's not like I've gone to take a look at any of these in person, but I've found a few that look pretty clean, like this for example:

The only places where I've seen prices much higher than this are wide auction sites and listings in affluent areas where entitled sellers hit you with the 'IKNOWWHATIGOT' tax.

if i had one instead of my evo i would do a turbo +free valve conversion and leave it looking exactly the way it was when i bought it but with real balls for a powerplant

Location is a big factor. OP is not on a coast.

I really think they're gorgeous cars. I would love to own one.

How's the headroom in those things ?

What about the convertible (top up, of course) ?
