Hey, Im 24 from louisiana. I use to have a Cobalt SS/SC with some mods I had to get rid of it a few months ago I am torn between a Cobalt SS/TC and a camaro SS/Z28. I have always loved camaro and I am looking into getting one. I found a 99 z28 for 7,500 with 89,857miles on it, is that a good price? Carfax came back clean, but is there anything i should look for before I get it? Thanks for the info, I am looking forward to learning a lot here.
