MAKE SURE NOTHINGS WRONG WITH IT AND START THE OFFER LOW AND WORK YOU WAY UP. GR8 CARS.

What should i first offer, 5k?

**a98gtp4u** · 09-18-2009

if its a private seller start with 4800. check the blue book value on it 1st, that way u know if what hes asking is accurate.

Nice find actually...I wish I would've found something like that when I was scrambling for a ride when I found my GP back in March lol good luck with it. Make sure you test it and see how it rides.

Agreed with the price...start around 4800, i'd say max yourself out around $5500, unless he is SUPER firm on the price. I'd take it for his asking compared to my car lol

That body style has more mods than the following style. Not that I reget mine or anything. The one on the list has had repairs so I'd think more repairs that would need to be done either at purchase or shortly after. If the price was in the fair range of kbb I'd consider it though.definitly not near excellent value. It's near 10 years old no disrepect. I ain't busy right now so hope this helps.

yeah the guy wont budge on the price

**a98gtp4u** · 09-19-2009

**Jbrigs** · 09-20-2009

Yeah, whatever. I "need" therapy. I ain't getting it, either.

He's trying to get max BB out of it, which is around 6200 for pristine condition in a high market town. Cleveland doesn't qualify. The list of "new parts" is odd. A sway bar and one a "ball bearing" (rofl) ball joint? He must have ran over a drunk Indians fan.

No mention of transmission service, which is the weak point of GP's. Low miles, but the same fluid has probably been oxidizing in that tranny case for a decade. If so, it'll take a dump in another 5k miles.

$4800.00 seems reasonable, with no maintenance records.
