Does this sound like a good deal?

My dad is selling his 1995 Dodge Viper RT/10 on Kijiji, needs the money to pay some bills and such.. A guy came by last week to look at the car, and he fell in love with it.. He sent an offer of $27000, and his 1988 IROC-Z convertible, it's an original 130,000 KM Loaded car. He says it needs paint and a top, but we don't know until we receive pictures, but what do '88 Irocs go for?

Re: Does this sound like a good deal?

I wouldn't really worry about the 3rdgens value, just consider it a bonus. It's probably only worth $2500.

Knowing how many people stashed away vipers when they came out thinking they would be worth a fortune down the road because nothing would have more then 400hp are now SOL when it comes to their 'investment'
(friend still has his life savings in one in a shed on blocks)

I say take the money, but not because of the vert.

Verts are worth more in Canada. Check kijiji or Auto trader in Ontario.

He loves the Viper, but like you said, Aaron, the value of them went the wrong way. It's a 20,000 KM 1 of 300 emerald green car, too. But no one even looked at it for $39,000.

Well it's in the garage..

Needs some work, but over all it's in pretty nice shape.. I'd like to replace both front fenders, and get that exhaust redone.. With 3 G's it'll be a nice car.

If I'm not mistaken Jay Leno said this exact same thing.
