Looking for a trans am Where is the best place to find a trans am for sale? Im not even really looking for a ws6 as i own a 4 inch ws6 hood already, but this will be my second car after a 2002 monte carlo ss, however ive been driving v8 cars here and there for a while, I'm looking to pay my own insurance, will it be outrageous? how much do i need for a nice trans am or z28

If you want a decent ride north of $12,000 look on Autotrader, or even Hemmings if you want something that is 'like new' in the high teens or low $20's. If you are looking for cars with higher mileage or 'projects' under $10k, look on ebay. I'll never recommend CL due to scams. There are exceptions to the rule for all these sites I mention, but you are asking a general question. No one can answer your insurance question due to rates for different states, ages, and personal history. My $400 a year (old guy) can be light years from a teenager with 3 speeding tickets in his past.
Good luck with your search!

I bought my Trailblazer (a few months ago), my Firebird (3 years ago) and my second accord (5ish years ago) and sold that accord all on craigslist, you just have to not be an idiot and you can usually spot the scams right from the add. Only deal with people that have the title in hand and compare the VIN on the title to the VIN on the car, there is even a website you can put the VIN into now that will tell you if it's been reported stolen https://www.nicb.org/theft_and_fraud_awareness/vincheck or you can get the carfax for all the info.

I don't see whats so bad about cl. I used it to buy and sell my firebird and buy my ws6 both times I had no problems. My advice though would be always bring a friend or someone big and always call first not text or email, if the person sounds shady simply don't go. Use some common sense
