An 89 RS with bad paint and 200k miles would go for under $2000 in the states. In Finland I have no idea that could be a steal over there.
Here a $6300 thirdgen would be a mint condition GTA or mint 91-92 l98 z28s with low miles.

I bought my 1990 RS for $6300 and it only had 21,000 miles on it and was bone stock. She still had the origonal wipers on her.

Don't worry about what you paid...its over with now so as long as your happy with it then theres no problem. I paid over blue book for my firebird but it was worth it for me. Cars are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. Enjoy your new toy.

I paid about $7k for mine that sounds extremely high compared to what most people paid here. I hope it being a completely stock, totally mint, all original 91 convertible 5-speed with 57k miles somewhat justifies that price.

Here i think a 89 L03 only books at a little over 4000. And thats with low milage. I paid 2900 for mine and it just needed a paint job, and has a 3 inch exhaust.

Well..
Multiply your your car's price with 3 and you get some clue what those cars cost here. Thank you car-friendly government! btw chance to get a gallon of fuel less than 4 bucks is smaller than win in a lottery.
