an 1990 IROC-Z with 80,000 miles.. interior and exterior SUPER clean?

5.0L V8 with T-tops..

I checked one out the other and test drove it. The engine runs strong and pulls very hard.

What do you guys think?

Do you think I'll be able to talk them down?

Last year of the IROC. Nice car and not a bad price either. Is it a stick or auto?

If it's super clean as you say then it's worth the money. Of course you can always talk a price down at least a little. There is always some room to move.

Yep. It's a 5.0L TPI automatic. Has power everything.. I'm still debating whether to pick this car up, or find a 91-92 Z/28.

Is there anything a 91-92 Z28 had that an IROC didn't?

Sounds nice. I guess it's up to you. Do you like the color etc. The only problem with the 91/92 Z28's is if you find one with the 350, it's not gonna have ttops (I think). Also, for me, you just can't beat a super clean IROC-Z.

Not all 91/92 Z28s had 350s. The 1990 wasn't available with ttops and a 350 either, so if you want Ts, grab up the 90 IROC. It will have more appeal as time goes on since it was the last of the IROCs.

Actually I belive there were no changes to the engine, cam, exhaust, or any other engine component from 1990 - 1992.

I belive they all use the same components. So if you find a 1991 or 1992 Z28 similarly equiped there should not be a speed difference.

The nice thing about 1990 is its low Production number, the last year for the "IROC-Z' and oddly enough there were no 1990 Camaros produced in the 1990 physical year.

IROC's are just plain badass ****** it up alot of them have been ragged out and have a lot more miles than more like 150+. The IROC is the only other third gen i would buy
