Is this a good price?

I'll make a long story a really short one: I am looking at buying a friend of the family's '92 Pearl, which is in really stand up shape with 86k on the odometer, and I don't know what to expect to pay. I payed $3400 for my 92 four years ago, so I'm not really sure what they are worth these days.

The details:
1992 SVX, pearl white, newish dunlop tires, 86k, working ac, good paint, good leather, 3-4 owners? The gentleman is about 60 years old and is a good personal friend but wants $4500 for it...which I think is a little steep for a '92. Not to mention that the car has an unknown electrical drain issue, where the battery will die if the car is left with either or both battery terminals connected, multiple visits to the shop and many new batteries have not fixed this apparently.

So given its good condition (except for the possibly large electrical problem) and the fact it is a '92, what is a reasonable amount for me to offer him?

Thanks guys!
