Default Is this a decent deal?

http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ca...ACK&cardist=10

I'm considering buying a 'camaro for a daily driver and maybe a little street action. Does this seem like a decent deal? From the pics on line it looks pretty well taken care of but you know how that goes.

THe deal I got was outrageous..even tho my car had 48k miles on it..I paid 10k from a DEALER for my 01 z28 It is FULLY loaded too..optioned out

THen again, that deal was insane, like I said...

Honestly though I don't know.. I saw a 199 z28 with some mods and the SS hood..custom grille and wheels..for like 9,8k with 60k miles..it looked sweet.

Make sure you look around a lot.

Yeah, I know I could probably get a nice modded hardtop for pretty cheap but I want a vert.

You can definitely talk them down from that! Just be persistent, show them that you are in charge and that you're not afraid to walk out if they don't give you the deal that you want. 90% of the time it'll work towards your advantage.

Come on man, I'm in San Diego. There's nothing like dropping the top and doing 90 on the freeway when it's a sunny 75 degrees out.

I'll give you that..San Diego is nice..but I love ttops Converts just always end up causing problems in the end, atleast from what I have dealt with. I've just always thought muscle cars look much more badass when they dont have ragtops

but like I said, that is my 2 cents
