This is a beautiful car. I've had it a little over 3 years. I want it to go to someone who will take care if it. The 83,000 miles on the car is 100% accurate. I verified this via Carfax. Don't send me e-mails about how I ruined a GTA. It had a rebuilt title and was in terrible shape when I took her in. I chose to modify it and I like the results. I work a night shift, but I will get back to you. Just leave a message. Please don't give some low ball bull crap offer. I have well more than double in this car than the asking price. Thanks for looking.

I also wanted to say that this car is still fully capable of getting 21-22 mpg+ It would make a pretty awesome car to just drive. Also, it was first runner up in it's class at the Camaro/Firebird Gathering in Bowling Green, Ky. last September. Later,
