what could i sell this for?

I can get a 1992 trans am 305engine v8 with tpi only 49,000 miles. it has tan leather interior with new carpet, power everything. Its been reacently painted polo green and has 16inch gta rims on it. I can get it for 2,500$. my mom knows the guy so he is cutting me a deal. Now i dont really like the look of 3rd gen birds so if i wanted to turn right around and resell this car, how much could i get?

the guy bought the car in non working condition cheap and put in some labor and got it running and restored her to her former glory. And he isn't gonna make a profit off of me he is just gonna sell it to me for what he paid for it and his labor!

Depending on what parts had to be replaced and what the car looks like would be my deciding factor...

I think its crappy of you to buy it and resell it like that if he's cutting you such a deal. He's being nice because he probably thinks you like the car, not so you can turn around and sell it to make some cash.

I agree with MetalliCamaro, the guy is really being generous. If you don't like the way it looks, tell him that you don't really want it. Just say, "Hey, sorry, it's not really my thing, I appreciate it, though."

Just go get a Camaro if that's what you want. I'd be hurt if I cut someone a deal then they turned around and sold it.

If I put my HARD work into a car, and sold it somone because I knew there mother or somethin. GAVE THEM ONE H E LL of a deal, then they turned around and made the profit I could have. I would kick thier @ss. That would be ****ty man. He did the work, he should make the profit. Now, if someone wants to pay you a finders fee like mentioned above, then thiers some ligit cash in your pocket. Just trying to prevent you from being thought of as a big piece of sh*t. Nobody on here means to be hard on you, we just love our cars and appreciate every single ounce of hard work we put into them.

hey man i took a look at that car today and it just isn't my thing, so i am gonna pass. The car is not as perfect as it was described to me is it is throttle body not tune port, the pant is nice but has some wear the car has bra on it which has kinda hurt the front end paint. it does need rear shock and new brake pads up from other than that the car runs and drives like a dream. i was honest witht he guy and told him how i i felt and he told me to pass laong his number to soeone looking for that car at that price. the interior is really nice but the guy smokes so it just needs some cleaning, it has leather seats froma 95 trans am which are in great conditon. If i was 18 and could get a loan i would buy this car but i just dont have the funds right now so if u are still interested email me at pardonme27@yahoo.com
