Hi i'm not really a car enthusiast but I was hoping someone here could tell me if I was being screwed or not on a camero offered to me.

It's a 1995 6-speed stock camero with 97k miles. the seller is asking 3800. besides the miliage ( which I consider to be low) the vehicle is nearley in mint condition, with no interior or exterioir damge

And if I do buy the car, is there anything I should know about maintenece or look out for?

Thanx,

rp

 

first it is camaro not camero. that is a pretty good price. could need a clutch soon. check the oil and make sure there is no metal or coolant in the oil. if there is coolant it will kinda look like a choclate milkshake. if the interior/exterior is as good as you say it is it was probably taken care of pretty well. oh and welcome to the board.

 

Sounds like a good price. Have a mechanic check it over and if he says its good the I'd buy it.

 

Check body lines, welds on frame, drivability, run a carfax.....

 

Sounds like a good buy, some of the common problems with the 93-97 f-bodies are the Opti-spark(distributor) and an oil leak from the rear of the intake manifold. As mentioned above, check the things that you would check on any car.

 

thanx guys

 

I paid 5.5k for mine with 93K on it.

 

Yeah, me too, but then again, it was becoming increasingly hard to find a black car with t-tops in good condition so I couldn't negotiate prices the way I would have wanted to.

 

Man, i think i paid to much, lol.. Black with Tops, 62K. Flame red interior tho.

 

If it's running good that's a pretty good price. I've paid about that much for mine overall after I fixed everything on it. I paid about 1500 flat out to buy it, but have done lots of repairs.
