Looking at this G/N, need opinions

[newmoon]

Still in the hunt for a GN, found this beauty about 5 hours from me.

I am kind of interested in this GN, looks like it's been on the market for some time. Trying to get detailed information from the dealer is like pulling teeth. I believe they have this car on consignment.

By watching the video can you folks give me any details on the car, all I can tell is it's got a dual exhaust, do you see any other performance mods? What's your opinion at a $17,900 price. I think the car has 57k on it.

First, I would never buy from a dealer. Why pay mark up, tax and everything else. :tongue:

Cars are popping up left and right here on the board. Keep your eyes open. Check the cars for sale section daily. You will be much better off.

That is the stock exhaust. Ask them for a carfax. Make darn sure you want T-tops. My preference is hard top or astro roof.

17,000 $? I can get a numbers matching SS chevelle or something with that price tag. I agree with others, shop around and wait a bit. For that price it better be in the low 10's or in no way stock damn it haha.

They definitely do a nice job of marketing their cars. That said, I'd also keep looking. You are going to be much better off shopping around in this market. Dealers get really proud of having a GN on the lot and mark it up to reflect that.

Thanks for the feedback thus far. I don't know how negotiable this price is I haven't pressed the issue yet. What would you consider a fair price in this market for this car.

Anyone spotted any mods?

Not that there is anything wrong with the following, just looked at the video and noticed an aftermarket radio, and looks like some 10" or 12" circles were cut into the fabric in the trunk (system related?), in the close ups it looks to me like it's been painted (or cleared) at some point. And the powermaster looks like the newest thing under the hood, possible replacement?
Also note they show the VIN so if you want to do a carfax you can.
You should know, I've seen cars with 180k that look like that under the hood. So don't assume.
