An all green Ragtop

I came across this ragtop on a german site. It sure is.....different..

Here are the specs I found on it:
'91
350TPI
Eibachs & KYBs
WRD Magnesium rims in 9x17 and 10x17 (don't know BS etc)
235/45x17 and 255/40x17 respectively
The color is Polynesian Green Metallic

















It's was for sale for €14900 (around $19000) These things are pretty pricey over here in Europe!

wow that camaro is diff... He must of had a 350 swap i assume. Due to its a convertible and has a RS grille. Unless he switchd those. Its funny How he has American flags all over it, even tho its from Europe. Gotta ditch the dice on the mirrior. Its weird but cool. Also it has Iroc Hood. And if its a 91, then its pretty gay how it says Iroc Z. But overall nice car. Wow 19,000? Man thats how much my 1991 Z28 was brand new from the dealership! Wow how much did thirdgens cost when they were brand new???

also has a Mass Airflow Set up MAF. MAF was available on the 350 TPI from 87-89, Speed Density was 90-92.

I wonder if it really is a '91? (Wrong GFX/hood/dash/etc)

It looks more like an 87 IROC to me under there...

(V belts/factory style TPI harness/early cluster/dash/iroc fog lamp switch/seat pattern looks to be a swap in, and looks like late door mouldings were added)

Anyone else get that?

not a fan of the color, or the interior. If different color then yeah i would like it. Looks puke like inside that thing.LOL

I like the rims except the rear one. It sticks out just a bit too much. If front was same it look ok but its eyecatching to have the rear sticking out. I dont like the V8 decals on the fender

If that thing doesnt have alot of engine work, I dont think its worth 19000 but its a solid car nonetheless

I think the interior has potential if more black was used. Just like all around the car. It needs more black accents.

Did anyone else notice pic #1 and #3 are basically the same pic, but #3 is reversed?

Also, could this be a photoshop? that color is just so hideous, its almos scary someone would actually spend time/money to do it.

if you check the background trees, it is not the same pic. Its more angled and car's shadows/reflections are different. Although the car is kinda hideous. If it only was a different color.
