Default Good Deal?

Ok, Im looking at buying a Black/Black Leather 1997 LT-1 Trans Am with 84,500 miles and a 6 speed transmission. It has a few minor scratches and really the only noticeable thing is it has a minor exhaust leak at the manifolds. It has subfram connetors, panhard bar, and had lowering springs on it but the seller took them off thinking it would sell faster, and he'l give m those. Im not sure on the brand of any of these mods. The interior is fully loaded, minus the cd changer, every other option is in there. And the interior is mint. Could someone give me a few guess's as for what a good price would be for it? I will then reveal the price that im getting it for soon afterwards to see how it compares. Thanks Guys

If its superb mint, id say 7 grand? If its what you want, perfect, who cares the price, as long as youve got the capitol.

Very good price, I got my 93 Z A4, with 88k on it, with mods, and a few scratches and scrapes here and there, couple interior problems such as power window motor and a couple switches, plus a fog light out for $5500 and I still think I got a good deal for the car. Go for it, and congrats on the find.

Thats a pretty good price. That is what I paid for my 97 Z28 a couple of years ago with more miles on it.
