Default Down at the dealerships today...

So my buddy and I were bored after school today (high school seniors ) and decided to go down to the automall. Whilst he was test driving a new V6 Camaro(pretty impressive for the money), I'm sitting in the backseat and we drive by the Dodge dealership. And this beauty is sitting up on the corner with big stickers that say $4999. At first I dismiss it, naturally thinking it's a V6 at that price, I start to laugh. Then I realize it has the black sail panel characteristic of V8s and then I see the little Z28 badges. We go to the dealership and inspect/test drive it and it seems pretty good. Not perfect and I would much rather have leather but hey, it's only 5 grand.

Now I used to love LS1 Maros and was convinced I'd buy one when it's time for me to buy a car. I had since moved on to consider other things but at that price I feel like this one is calling me back. It's so clean and subtle (almost plain looking), but obviously has huge potential. I love that sleeper factor. What do you guys think? I have a car now, so I don't really need it right now, but I will need a different car when I'm away at college next year so it's a little early to be looking, but this deal feels too good to walk away from. The thing is so clean for its age/mileage/price. Here's the link to it on the stealership's page. Any glaring issues I'm missing or concerns?

Website doesn't say but mileage is 148k, thing still pulls strong though.

Looks damn clean for 148k... looks like a good deal. White is a great color for F-bodies too. If you want leather then you can always swap out the cloth.

Go for it.

It sold. FML. The worst part is the guy just put a deposit on it but it's still just sitting there. The search continues... If anyone has any leads on anything good like this in Vegas, let me know.

Okay guys, I got a lead on another one. Hopefully going to see it soon (private party seller). These are the stats:

'02
Z28
74k miles
Silver exterior
Black leather interior
Auto trans
T-top
Baer front big brake kit

$8000, actually let's say $7999. Just feels like less even though it's only a buck.
