Bought a 98 Z28 with 18.5k/mi for $8,300! Was looking for a daily driver to replace my recently departed 98 SS, kept my eye on Ebay, won this one today:

I think it went cheap cause the color isn't an eye grabber and it has no tops. But it will do just fine for daily driver duty!

Color isn't an eye grabber? From the pics it is hard to tell if it's Mystic Teal or Bright Green Metallic, but either one of those colors is great! Both are very rare and very cool.

Hey, for 8k seats worn out by lardass company execs isn't going to bother me.
MAF is stock, I asked, guess he just painted it.
I'm in Texas, going to take a vacation to go cough up the cash and drive it home. Carfax came back clean, and verified the low miles when it last changed hands.

Mystic teal or Bright green metallic require a good camera and lighting conditions to get a good pic.
In person, there is no doubting that either of those colors are definitly eye grabbers...

that hurts to see dark interior in a mtm car! I hate my tan leatheranyway you got a great deal, its a great color(trust me) i bought mine just before winter for 8.9k with 69k on the clock!
the only thing I don't like is its suto but thats a complete owners opinion ( I looked forever for a ls1 6 speed with under 75k for under 10k)

Thats is definetly Bright green Metallic. It doesnt take pictures well but looks stunning in person, its like a shimmering green. color is definetly an "eye grabber" in person. Congrats on the purchase, I paid $8000 for my 98 BGM Z but it has 80K on it...M6 Though. Awesome deal you go there.

It seems more and more like a BGM to me, especially after the pic of the engine bay. Here's a pic of my engine bay and rear bumper, note though that on a bright sunny day my car shifts to a more green tinge in photos like those pics of your car does.

wow you did good. great mileage. i just picked up a 2001 formula with 25k miles. cost me $10,650.
the only thing that's a shame is that someone can buy a car so beautiful and let it get so dirty. do that car justice and clean it out. a little vacuuming, car scent and a wash/wax will do it wonders!
