Default Please look... Good deal on 35th SS?

I called this dealer and it does have the Z4C on the door... There are no stripes on the car and it does have the 35th seats. Is this a good price for this car? I would be swapping all of my BMR parts, cam, headers, N20 onto this car from my wrecked car...

thanks

Does the Z4C mean that it is indeed a real 35th?

Yes, Z4C was the RPO for the 35th appearance package on 2002 Camaro SS. However, I'd be curious about why it doesn't have stripes. Wrecked and repainted?

This is indeed a real 35th Anniversary Edition with Z4C. Very odd that someone would take off the stripes. The front brakes have been swapped too. All 35th LEs came with black anodized calipers. This has silver.

Is there a piece missing on lid going into the bellow area? Looks pretty clean for 100k miles, maybe pull a carfax and see what the low down is.

have you seen the title or the paper work for the car? Definitely pull a car fax to see the history.

I ended up passing on the car. I'd rather find one with lower miles and with the stripes. Looking to trade my Harley Davidson plus cash for an auto car with CME.

Is it possible you could have the stripes deleted from the factory? Much the same way you could get a second gen Trans Am without the hood decal.

Nope, but i couldn't understand why anyone would have done that considering they could just buy a regular ss and save the 3k for the Z4C option.

1 of 3 things happened to this car.

1. It was wrecked or sun damaged bad enough to require a full repaint and they didn't put the stripes back on

2. it appearantly has 100K mile so who knows how many owners had it and the car may have been sold to someone who knew nothing about the car and thought the stripes were ugly.

3. The dealer took them off when it was brand new as they couldn't sell it. This happened a lot more than you think. Next time you see a white 97 Z28 with sounds tooth and a white grille, take a second look as it is probably a real ZDC code 30th and had the orange stripes taken off by the dealership.

Mines a real 35th LE and it didnt have black anodized or silver calipers. It had the same raw metal calipers as all the regular ss's.



Quick Reply: Please look... Good deal on 35th SS?
