Not very clean or nice but still something I wouldn't mind having. Surely not original mileage.

 

My 100,000+ mile interior shows MUCH less wear and tear than that one!!

 

Yeah too much wear. Probably 124k.

 

That car has 124k. Don't you just love it when people try to deceive others?

 

Yup, 124K or even 224K. I had an all original '86 with 155K that looked nicer than that car.

 

Whenever someone posts a low mileage thirdgen for sale, nearly everyone who posts a response acts like he's on a mission to prove it's a fake, never believing it, always critisizing it, regardless of how much real evidence points to it being legit. BUT... in this case, I agree, something definitely seems very wrong.

The leather is wearing off of the e-brake handle very badly; the driver's seat seems extremely dirty and worn; the front gfx is badly scraped up; and the front tires look bald on the edge.

If this car really has only 24,321 miles, then those were some VERY ROUGH miles!

So yeah, I doubt its authenticity, too. But it looks like it's in good shape for a car with 124,321 miles, or especially one that has 224,321.

One thing is accurate, at least... it's really one of the lesser built '85 HO cars.

 

Only way to really know is if someone has a carfax that can run it to verify this statement

 

Amen brother!!! Seems like ALOT of people on this History board want to be the "eBay police" or something. It especially amuses me when people get on a rant about how they argued with the owners of the cars, and all about how they're so superior to the owner and "know" so much more, about stuff like that. It's REAL bad about Firebirds, much worse then Camaros, those are the funniest.

Fact of the matter is, that car is 23 years old, and in most states, is only 2 years away from being an "official" antique!!! It just makes us all look like some kind of idiots if we treat it like its 23 years of existence shouldn't have left any kind of mark.

I agree totally, that car has probably 124k miles, not 24k; so what. CarFax is USELESS for cars that old anyway, wrong tool to try to use (might as well try to use a hammer to turn a bolt), they haven't been keeping that data for long enough, it could easily have got 100,000 miles on it before THE FIRST TIME it ever entered any kind of database that records mileage. Regardless, there it sits, it is what it is, the condition is right there for all the world to see. It's an old car. Get over it. You want it, or not? If you want it, buy it. If you don't, let someone else buy it. No need in criticizing everything.

I also agree, while it's definitely an old car and has seen plenty of use, it's not in too bad of shape. How hard is it to find a parking brake handle anyway? How big of a deal is that??? I've seen FAR FAR worse, with FAR fewer years and/or miles on it. For $2000-2500, that probably wouldn't be too bad of a car for somebody, if it hasn't been wrecked or anything like that. If it has been, it might make a damn good parts car.
