Colour is perfect for me---rather have a 5 speed TPI (not avail until 87 I know) and T-roofs aren't a big deal.


But saying that.....low mileage T/As are very hard to come by in Canada.


Sounds like a great condition car. I would much rather pay for an original car thats close to perfect then some beat on used car that needs work.

If I could get him to $10,500.....

Think the car is worth close to this?

Pontiac Trans-Am

 

the car had better be origional with almost no miles to be worth 10500 american, with all options, in perfect shape

 

not much info there, just a pic...

I agree nice color though. What's he asking? I think that price is rediculous, unless it's been stored in a hermetically sealed bubble. That's how much that car cost brand new, and it's not exactly a collectors car (yet.)

I'd keep looking for your dream car.

 

you guys are over looking one thing....or perhaps unaware.

In Canada--F-bodies cost far most then in the US. We have less then a 1/10 of the amount produced. I scan the US listings and CDN and 25-50% more up here is the usual reality.

Saying that....14K is nuts....not like it a 1LE/Firehawk/TTA.

10,500, maybe 11K--if its showroom shape. But yeah I'd kill for hardtop, 5 speed TPI--and probably have to go the US to get it.

 

and it's only a trans am maybe if it was a GTA, but If I were you keep looking

 

you think i'm not aware of canadian pricing for 3rd gens?


he's asking $14k? It's not too far to go to look at it, might as well. It'd have to be showroom condition to go for $11k. I have a feeling no one in their right mind would buy that car, no matter how nice it is, for over $8000. Realistically.

The people that pay over $10k for an old muscle car want it to be either showroom original, or fully restored, and either way has to be a very reckognizeable old school muscle car. '60s mustang or camaro, Torino, chevelle, etc. That's all that'd go for over $10k, as the rest just aren't worth the $$ invested.

Either way, a 3rd gen isn't going to go for that price, he'll keep dropping the price as he doesn't get any calls on it.
He's in Edmonton, nobody there has $14k for an original 3rd gen, they've got lots of ratbagged 3rd gens there, but not a lot of really nice ones, and they few they have, aren't being bought for that much coin.

 

nice its just like mine but i dont no the differnce between canadian and u.s money

 

With just the picture to judge by there is no way to tell you what it's worth. A $200 hoop with a Maaco paint job would look the same at that distance.

Edit: Pontiac Trans-Am - Edmonton Cars For Sale - Kijiji Edmonton is the address to the full ad. If everything he says is accurate (low miles, NO A/C) then it might be worth a premium. Even so that's a collector price, and not the dollar amount you'd want to spend if you intend to drive it.
