i'd have to say the first one. but im with everyone else in that they are asking too much,best advice to negotiate is to print both pages off and bring them to the dealership, make sure the guys there see the autotrader page for the other dealer.

also when you go there, dont fixate on that one car, if theyve got more "sporty cars" out there, look at them, take there time up. as a salesman, he wants to concentrate your interest in one place, dont help him. just before you leave, casually ask what he can do on "that blue one"

but im with craig on just not feeling a convertible

U say there's not many in your area and thats limiting yor search but what about having it shipped to you? I know alot of ppl like to test drive them 1st but there's like 1,000's of cars that go on ebay everyday smoothly with positive feedback.. I actually bought 2 cars off there and was very pleased with the cars as well as the price but u never know... Not only ebay but other websites to for that matter..

no ebay cars and cant ship anything...again i have shitty credit and need a good chunk of change up front...plus my aunt is my co-signer sooo she hates travling for cars let alone used ones...shes like u should just buy a new one...im like ok deal...tell GM to re-make a 4th gen F-body and its a deal and ur payin for it lol...but ya guys believe me if i had wonderful credit and a lil more cash i'd been all over the 02 SS's and WS6's with 30k miles or less....i just CAN NOT afford them now and this old guy really wants my car bad so this is my chance to get into a "descent" f-body...i cant be to picky...as long as it looks and runs the way it should and its all good. and im tryin so hard to stay away from Auto's cause M6 is sooo much fun

I wouldn't get either of the first two. The Auto Z looks really clean however, if you want a M6 then wait it out. I would also try to find something stock or close to stock. That way you can mod it yourself which is more fun anyway than buying something with everything done. Also you know it hasn't been beat on much. Good luck with what ever you decide man.

yea m6's are fun.. but auto's are more consistent especially when you put a stall in it that stall is just as good as a manual unless u jus like shifting your own gears

ya i know stalls can be very fun(haven't rid in or drove a stalled auto) but i love shifting my own gears too. i feel like i have "more" control over the power and makes roll races fun....but an auto would be very consistent and descent from a roll too

The SS all the way. Like people said offer $8,500 cash, he will take it. Act like you dont want the performance parts so he will go lower.

I would also look for a TA , I think they look better than a SS !! Can't beat the WS6 hood & the tail lights are way better looking!! I like the head lights on the SS better than the TA , but the rear spoiler on the TA T-top car is just better looking .

i'd say between the 2 Z28's. I LOVE SS's but man it's just too beat up for me to take a 2nd look. The 2nd Z28(stock lookin' and CLEAN) looks like a real winner to be honest. But the 'Vert is nice and has the 6speed. I'd definatly say between the 2 Z's.

Just get it *****. Put a 4.10 in it with a 4400 and you will never look back.
