Looks good, nice ride.
I ran the data on kbb.com for a New Yorker, this is what I came up with. Are the IROCs undervalued or what ?
Excellent condition means that the vehicle looks great, is in excellent mechanical condition and needs no reconditioning. It should pass a smog inspection. The engine compartment should be clean, with no fluid leaks. The paint is glossy and the body and interior are free of any wear or visible defects. There is no rust. The tires are the proper size and match and are new or nearly new. A clean title history. This is an exceptional vehicle.
Private Party Value $3,955
Private Party value represents what you might expect to pay for a used car when purchasing from a private party. It may also represent the value you might expect to receive when selling your own used car to another private party.

But its black, and for some reason, they seem to go for more, or at least thats how it seems near me. I'd pay $6500 for that car. All the black IROCs I've seen for sale near me have been at least $7500.

damn! 16 grand for a regular IROC!!!! **** on that.......i'd pay at the most 12 grand and that would be for a '90 IROC drop top........you can do all the stuff you want to the car but the value is determined by just the car.......my dad easliy had over 20 grand invested in his 68 GT had over 400 hp on the 302.....4 grand was in the tranny alone......he sold it in 89ish for 2000 dollars...everthing included...cause thats how much its worth......im sick of people asking 6000 dollars for a V6 RS........thats ridiculous....i'd offer him 7500 and work from there......
