Not bad, looks like it's taken care off, price wise that's good at least where I'm from. You might try talking him down a couple hundred at least and see where that gets you.

Price is wayyyyyyyyyyyy too low. I would worry that it wasn't involved in the Hurricanes or that someone stole it among Hurricane's wreckage. Maybe it has flood damage or isn't titled. I would do some investigating on that one; however, if everything checks out go ahead and GIT-R-DONE.

It has to be heard and driven. Motor noise and drivetrain funk can fubar a fantastic deal like this one appears to be. If I lived in the area, I'd be hovering to take a look.
I bought my 01 Z28 for about that price last year but an SS really boosts the value. I've heard that fbodys go for a song in FL for some reason.

For FL that is a pretty low price. Miles aren't too bad for a 99. Carfax for sure. If it comes back clean and the car runs/drives/sounds/looks good, then it's a pretty good deal.

does anyone think the miles are too high? should i wait for something with lower miles? im not sure how long ls1's last, and i have some plans (lid,filter,full exhaust,cam). would she hold up for a long time. I dont want to get an ls1 and have to baby it because im scared something is going to break!

I just picked up a 99 SS M6 for 9995 and drove just over 1000 miles for it. Mines had a dent in the quarter panel but was still a great deal compared to what i found anywhere closer to me. Car was ina lil town up in the mountainous area of colorado and was a lil dirty from all the dust up there but cleaned up very very well. Id say that is a steal for the florida area too. Id go over it very well and see why such a good price for such a clean car. Its in the wrong part of the country for that kinda price in my opinion. Anythings possible though!

The autotrader link is down, but I think you are talking about the car I just bought. Its a good looking car, but needs a few hundred $ worth of interior work to put it in tip top shape. The car runs great though. Its a one owner car with a completely clean carfax. The guy said he was getting 30 calls + per day!
