Question 02' Z28 -- Should I buy it?-- HELP!!!

Okay guys! I'm an Ex LS1 GTO owner and I drove a used 02 Z28 home tonight to see how it does,(First time driving a Camaro!) I am probably going to buy it but wanted to hear from the masses here at LS1TECH.... It has 51,405 miles on it and I say its a 9 of 10 in the interior, prob 8.5 of 10 on exterior, no noticeable paint flaws or scratches. the prev owner put SLP exhaust on it and it looks like he put magnaflo mufflers on it to maybe "tame" the noise? It drove well on the 75 mile trip home, only probs were some vibrations at certain RPM's and a warped rotor that caused the steering wheel to shake a little. First stop was I made was to Allan Futral's shop where he took a look over the whole car for me then he drove it around for a couple miles and hammered on it one good time, and said that he though it was in pretty good shape, he said the vibrations were caused by the exhuast and it was an easy fix, and the rotor issue was also common, He approved.... I know that should be enough approval but I want to hear what you have to say.


Mileage: 51,000
Power windows, power door locks, power drivers seat, leather, t-tops,
AUTO TRANS, LS1 5.7 (duh), Tilt, Cruise, and so on..
Final price negotiated: 13,000 here's pics.








So what do you think??????? Let me know. Thanks!!!

Sounds like a pretty good deal, IMO. That car is quite nice looking.
