Would you buy it?

Just found a car local.

87 Z28

Black with gold stripes on the gfx.

Hard top, 305 TPI 5spd with 3.73 posi disc brakes.

no ac or power accessories.

50k miles. Car is in excellent condition, best condition I have ever seen in person to be honest with you. The doors close like new, engine bay is pristine, weatherstripping is like new. slight rust on the rear bumper bar, but there is no other rust on the car, the floorpans look like brand new, interior is perfect save for some light fading on the top of the rear seat. only thing I notice with the paint is some light fading on the front bumper and roof.

Car is completely stock save for aftermarket exhaust and AFPR and hurst shifter.

So, I dont really have the money, so I would have to take out a small loan, and the wife wont be too pleased...

anyway, they are asking 5k, I think it can be had for somewhere between 4-4500.

Would you buy it?

It almost seems like too good of a deal to pass up.... curious to see what others would do.

i took out a small loan for mine and ive already replaced almost everything. (still paying for the loan) but i dont regret it. sounds like a good deal as long as you can afford the loan payments. pics would be good

Re: Would you buy it?

no... but you asked. nothing pre 91. well unless it's a vert only because they are limited so you might not have a choice.

on a serious note though your going to low ball a 50k 1987 z28 over a few hundred dollars. if the car really has that low of mileage and is truly clean to show it that's a deal. take it and run... i feel bad for anyone who has a car like that and has to sell it that cheap. cheap in the fact that you know how much it costs to fix a 2k car to look like a 5k car...
