Your ideal “80’s Car Museum” cars

Way out of budget (but he is interested in Porsche's), but a crazy Gemballa Porsche should probably be in the museum.

I used to think slant nosed 911's looked good, but what did I know I was a teenager in the 80's.

1G Integra is an awesome suggestion. IIRC, there was an "LE" model with special side-skirts, rear-spoiler, and DOHC badges.

They only came in white, and also had white wheels. 

Fila Thunderbird.

YES! There was one around here years ago that I'd see frequently. Constantly asked the dude driving it if he wanted to sell it, and I think he thought I was joking. It was his "beater" car. Probably squished years ago :/

My wife was driving an 87(?) that I bought for $300 at the time.

If this isn't bought right now, it's not an 80's museum

While not hitting the "clean/non-project" criteria, I desperately want that. Weirdest driver controls I've ever experienced.

If you want a true representative of a 1980s car:

1st gen Celiac Supra 

1st gen ex-7

iroc- later tpi example

vw scirroco (sp?)

4 runner- yes top off....

fox body mustang 

nissan maxima

delorean

K- Cars were definitely a part of my youth.  What went longer?  K-cars or the current Challenger, Charger, 300 series of cars.  Come to think of it, is there a term for those?  K-cars, cloud cars, what are the current cars referred to?
