Ended up talking them down to $9200.. that's the only bad thing about the car, it's got 97K on it.. but that doesn't scare me too much, I'm pretty good at working on cars and one of my good friends works at GM so I can get parts for cost, that helps a LOT..

Great find. Looks extremely well cared for. 97K isn't too bad for this engine and a car that looks that nice should have had decent maintenance. Even the 17's look pris-freaking-tine! Did you drive it yet or was this an online find? Tell us how it runs once you take delivery. That Vette ain't too shabby, either.

Yep, was an online find, so I haven't seen the car in person. However I've driven a lot in the last couple of months with the same or more miles, and in a LOT worse shape than this one physically, and they were all pretty solid cars, so I felt fairly comfortable buying this one. It was also a 1 owner car for the entire 97K miles. But yes as soon as I get it, i'll be postin' about it.

After seeing your pics, if you bought it at Borcherding in Kings Auto Mall Cincinnati, you can probably rest assurred about the car. I have bought from them before, they are local to me. Pretty good dealership.
