New price of $8,800 in 1983 dollars would calculate to $18,955 in 2009 dollars. It is therefore somewhat arguable that if you had a time machine and went back and bought the exact car you would pay $18.9k today. It is also somewhat arguable that at anything less than $19k, the GTI is a bargain. Certainly too rich for my blood but I will put it out there, I expect this to sell for close to $18k.

Suspiciously close at a $18, 859 final price.
