Default Will soon own a ls1

I'm 18, just recently got a job, ditching the ol Honda gas saver and getting a real car, I'm gonna be looking a ls1 firebird or camaro. I found a niceeee one for cheap, but I think it sold already here's a link to it http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/ctd/2690429380.html So i'm on the hunt for another. Oh and btw i'm located in North Texas, fort worth to be exact!

150,000 mile for 8 grand??? That's not a steal.

There's one with 115K for 6400... you need to look longer and wait for the right one to buy. I know the Trans am is probably nicer but still i don't think a 150k T/A is worth that price. I know you can find a lot lower f-body for that price. I almost bought a 64,000 mile 2000 z28 for 8 grand.

I would not pay more than 6500 for that car. Keep looking and take your time. When I was looking for my trans am I was on craigslist 4 times a day checking every city near by looking for a good deal and it paid off. I was looking for about 6 months before the one I wanted popped up. I got mine with 53K for $10K.
