iroc vs z comvertible

I'm looking to buy a convertible. I was wondering what people think would be a better investment a z or an iroc. I ask because at some point o may have to sell like I did my other 4 Camaros.

Re: iroc vs z comvertible

Buy what you like.

Buying for investment is stupid.

Figure out how much time/money/effort you lose keeping it hermetically sealed for years on end.

Just as much as if you enjoy it, beat the hell out of it and rebuild it again.

So buy what you like.

Post some pics. That sounds like a crazy great deal, though.

What are you looking for? How much you want to spend. Maybe I can help.

Re: iroc vs z comvertible

wow, lots of car for the money there. Frankly I'm shocked. Even if it needs a top and some paint work thats a good deal. There are still deals out there on these cars, this one proves that.

For sure, Jeremy. I would have snapped that car up in a minute for that price.

WE'll have to meet up once the weather gets nice. I really wanted a 89 iroc vert. As my first Camaro was an 89 RS

For sure. We usually hit Rolling Meadows on Fridays and Lombard on Saturdays. And of course, this year we'll have ThirdGen Expo.
