Firebird Formula... Worth the cash?

Ok I know this isnt about engines, but I couldnt find a topic section that fit this question, so here goes. There is a Firebird for sale around where I live. It is either an 87 or 88 cant remember. Its a white Formula with a 305 TBI. 62K miles, T-tops, ac, cruise, tilt, power windows/locks. It looks awesome and I think its got the WS6 suspension package, atleast thats what it says on the center caps on the stock wheels. The outside looks nice, a couple paint chips is all, still nice, inside is mint. Is it worth $4000 do you think? Any input would be appreciated, thanks!

Has to be an 88 no TBI in 87 unless in CALI.
NOT WORTH $4000

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me...62k is pretty low mileage assuming the car runs good...Aaron was right about it being an 88 if its an LO3(305 TBI)...the LO3's aren't the fastest motors out there but it's very feasable getting one into the low 15's high 14's w/o spending that much $...there's a lotta "free mods" possible too...good luck
