Default Formula 1994 what is the value ?

Hello,

I consider to buy this car, I'm in east Canada it got 130 k (81,000 miles), no accidents, original paint, and everything work.

















Interior look very clean for the year, it was use only in the nice season.

Price is around $ 3,500 U.S., is it a fair buy ?

Thanks,

I think that is a very fair price, especially for Canada which I believe is more pricey when it comes to these cars. I owned a 1996 Formula for 9 years and it was a real pleasure to drive with no issues. The LT1 was a fine engine for me. Ask the seller if the Optispark has been replaced during the car's life. It's not a deal breaker but it's not cheap either. Also make sure the roof doesn't leak. That can be quite aggravating. I had a solid fixed roof on mine so I never had to worry about it. Check all the fluids and if the maintenance looks fresh, you should be good to go. Best of luck! or Bonne chance!!
