The Exterior has a few small rock chips and normal wear and tear for a 12 year old car, The glass is great, The speakers could use being replaced,

The console lid has the usual slight spread due to drivers elbow resting on it, small scrape on console under cigarette lighter, never been smoked in!!!,

#1 & #4 button back lighting on factory head unit burned out ( Button's work ) - CD sometimes does not eject ( Looking at cost to replace head unit and speakers )

- Mechanically sound...Pulls like a freight train...Runs like a top! --

This is a very powerful / potent car - This is not a car for a Jr. or inexperienced driver....I have the original Wheels, Stock Air Intake, Tail lights




ok thats kind of a mess, but how realistic is his price of $15000?

thanks for looking

People these days think their dime-a-dozen fbodies are ****ing ferrari's with the pricing. lol

The car is worth $5500. That's it. The good thing about them, they're so common, you can be picky and find a good one at a fair price.

People can ask whatever they want for a car. If its overpriced and someone is stupid enough to buy it, so be it, but the price they posted for that car is unrealistic.

I sold a mint 2002 SS 6 speed with every option and 55k miles for $12,500, and that was on the high side.
