Hello all you LS1 freaks. I mean that in a good way. I've been browsing this site for a while now trying to get into a Trans Am. I need some guidance here, is a 1999 Trans Am that is totally stock with 92,000 on the clock worth $8600? Is that a good deal? This will be my first LS1 car by the way. Please advise.

No, miles to high, check edmunds. com and get the true value of that car, and then make a offer. If you check autotrader there are alot of Ls1's for sale, that's how I got a deal on mine six years ago. Welcome.

Welcome!! Do a search on here and every club you can and compare, along with autotrader. Prices vary depending on area and if the seller can sit on the car until it is sold. I just sold a 2002 transam with I think over 65,000 miles on it. You are looking at a 99 with 92,000 miles, yea sort of. But usually the less miles the more you will pay. How many owners? Are their any service records. Sometimes you just got to have the car you see. Just do a search to see the comparison. Good luck

Prices vary depending on area but I think that is too high I myself wouldn't give more than 7k for it. Check the classifieds on here. I see some pretty good deals on here.

Thanks for the advise. I'll see what the guy says about lowering his price, but he feels he can get more for it on autotrader.
