Default Good local deal??

Hey guys,

I'm literally on this site and CL every day looking at cars and i came across this one yesterday. I have my sights on another vehicle posted on this site but if that doesnt fall through i will look at this one.

http://providence.craigslist.org/cto/3096894762.html

I thought for that low mileage and being a 1 owner that price was very good.

Yeah that's a good deal. I got mine with 21k for $9300 from a dealer so like 10k out the door last year.

If it was clean looking like that Camaro is it probably would have been gone.

I am usually not a fan of white either, unless it has vents / scoops. In that case I like how the white contrasts against the black. Put an SS style hood on it and I think it would look nicer just my .02
