another interesting 87 on ebay

Athough not nearly as rare as the 87 LT convertible I recently posted. This is still an interesting car. Black w/Gold and the top option level, but oddly, no T-tops and the crappy mid-level am/fm Cassette. Very unusual car , Too bad the mileage is high

Now here's a rare '87:

I saw many, many years ago a 1987 Z28 coupe in dark metallic blue (not available on IROC-Z's) with gold rockers, gold striping, and gold wheels. My opinion: It was awful..... too much gold with those super wide 1987 Z28 stripes.... No doubt not many were made with this color combo...

I would have loved to get my hands on that car 100k miles ago!
Willie, I've got a pic of me standing beside an '87 Dk. Blue on Gold Z28 new on the lot circa March 1987. I'll have to send you a copy.

It really amazes me how some cars come optioned. My IROC was loaded with every option available in 85... except power mirrors, posi and an FM radio. Who the hell buys a loaded car and gets it with an AM radio!? The open diff also surprised me, especially considering that I've got disk brakes.

Gosh, those options would have added 500-700 to the cost of the car. it's hard to believe thats what broke the bank for the guy that ordered your car.
