If it's been well maintained, there's no reason not to consider it. As you already know from your 89, it's a great car for the DIY'er. There may be little differences in the dash / climate control area, but other than that, it's pretty much the same car.

I couldn't tell from your post if it IS or ISN'T a turbo. If it's a non-turbo it will probably have the Bendix-Regina fuel system vs Bosch on the 89, but that's no biggy - you trade an AMM and one of the fuel pumps for a little more expense on some of the other components. I have the Regina on our 90 740 and I have found it to be a rather robust system (original O2 sensor and Idle Control Motor at about 140,000 miles. The longivity of the RPM sensor, RS relay, and fuel pump relay will be just like the Bosch (and so will the price).
