88-92 GTA/Trans am <$6,000

Hello. I have been shopping for another car and figured it cannot hurt to make a post here.

My ideal car would be:

1989 - 1990 GTA Trans Am
Either 5.7L TPI w/auto trans or 5.0L TPI w/manual trans
Hard top
Decent running condition
Max budget $6,000

I am open to other years, t tops, base Trans Am, and Formula, but ideally am looking for a car that fits the above criteria. I intend to daily drive the car as much as possible, so I am not looking for a project car at this time. I have been keeping a close eye on the forums and craigslist, and do realize that the cars in very good condition tend to be priced above my budget. However, if you have a car for sale, or know of one for sale, in the New Jersey area that fits this description, please contact me because I am ready to buy.

Thank you.
