Agreed with Zamrambo. Also, I wouldn't get a Ford if I were you. 
I've already got one. Mine just wasn't the "sport" model. As for finding one in that condition, you are damn right. Near impossible. I can only wish, but its not impossible so don't shatter my dreams. 
I myself have a Ford. It's just hard finding parts unless you want to pay a fortune and Ford is going meh in general.

Find one that still exists, and I'll applaud you. You'll be lucky to have an American car last over 115,000 miles, and you'll be lucky to find a 1992 that has under 120,000 miles. Buy some cheap foreign car like a Celeca All-Trac, and turbo charge it. It'll be a lot faster than any of those
A couple months back there was this red 1992 GLS on eBay for $1,900. Dunno the miles. Also, my 1989 has 85,200 miles. Also, these are extremely reliable cars despite what anyone else has to say on the matter. As nice as the Celica sounds I'm a Ford guy. I figure if all my family's dozens of Fords have served us well, why stray from the tradition of fine quality, reliable, fun-to-drive cars? Not saying they're better then others, but my family and I have been very satisfied with them over the decades. I'm not denying the fact the Tempo GLS isn't incredibly fast. Quick at best. I love these cars for whatever reason, and in Alaska at least, they are more practical then any other car out there. Great in the snow, fantastic fuel economy, reliable, spacious, and they feel like very high quality products. Plus, finding an AWD Celica in Alaska is a heck of a lot harder then finding a GLS.

lol- didn't notice you were in Alaska, I can see why that would be tough. Out of the two you showed, I'd go with the Topaz.

Celica All-Trac is already turbo charged. 190hp with Turbo, however, the only quality build of them was from '87-'89, so the nice ones are hard to find. I would seriously kill for an All-Trac to replace my GTS. Ive only ever seen one, and that was even more rusted than my GTS. Clearly you are new to the car forums. Tempos are like a fetish here.
