Default Good Idea?

so my buddy started looking for a car recently and he stumbled apon a 2004 GTO and it has 67k miles, is black,M6, and stock, so he works out a deal with them and what not...it came out to around paying 15k and trading in his 97 jeep cherokee for 3200 so he would end up paying a little over 18k for it .

what do you guys think?

i told him not to do it because my brother also has a 2004 GTO with 44k miles and he picked it up for 16k, but maybe he just got a super good deal

just let me know what you think so i can give him some advice

I paid 10k for mine with 18k miles. But mine was a previous salvage title by the insurance company for theft.

Thats a great deal!

That sounds about right maybe a little more $ I think for the 67K 04 Goat should be, just my opinion, and what I've seen. As I have been looking at prices of 04's being that i'll be soon in the market to buy one.

+100 for that price you should be able to find a mildly modded '04

Look for Alexandria-GTO post in the for sale section on ls1gto. His is 04 PBM M6 48k miles with mods for 16k asking price.

There is also one on craigslist in Boston with 28k miles for 16k.
