Vert's can fetch more money, typically probably 2-3k over a similar body style/low mile t-top.

It's a real SS. It came stock with 10-spokes, but not chrome. I wonder why they were changed in those 600 miles?

that thing better have 30k worth of motor work or like 20 miles on it...

doubt it though his dealer must have convinced him to try and sell it for twice what he got it for...

found a special edition T/A from some unknown who threw a few pontiac badges off of a GTO, embroidered seats, after market hood, and 2k miles guy wanted $75k.... "only 5 ever made!"

LMFAO.

next one to ask him a question find out if he can get a deal on an 8ball...

Somebody send him the link to this thread....

I wouldn't buy a car sitting that long anyways. Who know's what will go wrong with it once you start driving it on a daily basis. Probably bugs and **** all up under that car.

******, I thought you were serious. I dropped my jaw untill I scrolled down a bit.


600 Miles on a car that is 6 years old = BAD. I seen people with **** like this a few times. A car that is like 10 years old and has 2k or about 20 years old with less than 20k. Then they start it up, and it runs like ***. AT's hate sitting for a long time. I rather buy a car with low mileage than none at all.

I bought my 1998 z28 with 64k for 7700 hundred bucks. It runs like new and looks almost new, with the exception of the front bumper which shows road wear.
