Description:

Hi All,

I am looking to purchase a 2002 Pontiac Trans Am Collector Edition. Vehicle must be a 6-speed manual, T-tops. Will entertain automatic cars too but prefer the manual transmission. No interest in purchasing a super low mileage car that hasn't been driven. Looking for a well maintained CETA that may have a few bumps or bruises, which runs and drives as it should.

I am located in Southeastern, Pennsylvania, about 45 minutes from Philadelphia. Would prefer a car that is somewhat local but will entertain a car that needs to be transported.

Any leads are appreciated. Picture attached is a beautiful one I found on Facebook recently that was not for sale.

Thank you,
Anthony

Hey Anthony,

i too an in the market for a Ceta. But I’m being way more picky. (Lol). I’m my searches on cars.com or autotrader theres a nice lookin one in Michigan I believe. Asking 15k (But since the ad has been reposted says make offer) I believe 35k miles. Only thing is it has a rebuilt title which I think is explained.

You may have already seen it. Just throwing it out there.

Regards
Mike

Cleanest, cheapest car, I've seen in a while is on FB in Terra Haute Indiana so not terrible for you. 2002 SS Camaro Auto with 79k on it. I just can't buy another vehicle as I'm over stocked as it is (2 2008 Saab Aeros for starters) Michael Shannon on FB TurboBullet $7500.00

I am also in the market for a CETA with a manual transmission; I am looking for a lower mile (sub 50k prefer) example.
The only manual transmission I have found is in Texas.
https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ngId=521509690

I believe this is a bit high priced because a 30k mile CETA just sold at the Mecum auction in Florida for $17.6k.
If I find any higher mile manuals, Ill pass them along.

Mike, what’s your budget? I see a decent amount of them low miles but some people are asking close to $30,000. I’ll keep an eye out for you. If you see any higher mileage 6 speeds let me know please.

I agree, $23k for a 35,000 mile car is way too high. The one that sold at mecum for $17,600 with 30,000 miles is priced very well. That’s why I figured the $8,000-$12,000 range for a 75,000 miles + car should be fair. Still looking

Default Ceta


This CETA. Has been sitting outside not been moved for a LONG time it seems like. I was very interested in it I left a note on the windshield with my number as I didn’t know what house the car belonged to. It was a manual transmission with sun spots all over the hood. Sadly I did not receive any call or txt from the owner.

I’d like to stay around 20k. But I’m admittedly picky. I’d like TTop no mods all stock low miles and not pay 30k I know Sounds ridiculous. But yeah please pass along anything you see. And I’ll do the same.

also if you see a fairly priced LS1 formula I’d be interested as well

And it breaks my heart to see that one just sitting there. Where is that one located (state)
