Re: Anybody have experience with M20s?

The M20 is just as durable as an M30 except for one thing, the timing BELT. Make sure it's got less than 4 years/60,000 miles on it. Breaking a timing belt on an M20 at speed is a guarantee that you'll spend a boatload of money repairing the head and probably the pistons. At least your '89 version ...
