Would you drive a Pontiac?

Got an good condition original TPI 5 spd. Formula. 4 wheel discs.
Passed smog last month (legally).
Mostly original no t-tops (which is a huge handling plus in my book).
I'm the original owner, have all repair records etc. since new.

my firend is selling his 86 ir0c-z. the car runs great but it does need some cosmetic work on it. http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/no...86-iroc-z.html (for sale 86 iroc-z)

I understand your pain! I'm in the market for another thirdgen and have found the market completely different from 3 years ago when I picked mine up. There are barely any for sale now and people want ridiculous prices for complete CRAP THRASHED thirdgens up here in the bay area!!! I also noticed that the prices for our cars seem to be going up, again for usually for complete crap. It seems I couldve typed in IROC on craigslist 3 years ago, many listings would pop up and they were priced fair.

80's Monte SS are the same way. 5,000 for a complete turd!

Take a look in the Reno/Sparks area, it isn't very far from Sacramento and I have seen a few on craigslist there. Also look into Chico, Red Bluff, and Redding areas as well, all of them are within a few hours drive from the central Ca area.
