FS: 1995 3.8L V6 Firebird, 160k miles, MD State Inspected
As promised, I have upgraded a few things on my F-body & am ready to sell.
Asking $2600
The car is a RED late 1995 3.8L V6 Firebird made in 6/1995 so almost a 1996. It is all stock; I upgraded the wheels to the 1996-2002 5 spoke stock wheels. Has power door locks, windows, auto trans, T-tops, radio controls on the steering wheel.
Condition: Good condition with very few issues. The windshield has some scratches from bad blades (long replaced). Everything works on the car (wipers, turn signals, A/C, heat, headlights etc etc etc )w/the exception of the rear defogger (never did since I've owned it) and the passenger power window. The window goes down an inch but you have to pull it back up by hand. The radio works fine but the CD player can be testy sometimes spitting CDs out.
Maintenance/repairs: I put a lot of extra parts in the car to make sure it's very reliable for a long time. These include: engine had all seals replaced, new timing chain kit, waterpump, serviced rear drums (50k mi ago), new muffler, serp. belt, starter, power steering hose, performance brake pads, tires (within the last year to pass very strict MD state safety inspection). Also replaced entire ignition system along the way. Tune up was 25k mi ago w/ good Iridum plugs so no need. Transmission serviced regularly and no issues with it. Only OEM parts used, and I have all the receipts. Oil changed by me personally every 3-4k highway miles.
Paint is good w/ just a little clear peeling on the nose maybe 3" x 6" patch. There is a tiny depression in the sheet metal above the pass rear wheel but it's only maybe 0.125" deep by 2" wide so not noticable and the paint's good there so I never messed with it. Also, a 0.5" long cut in the plastic fender above the driver's front wheel from being parked on the street; not very apparant.
Interior is great, no rips, tears, etc. One sunvisor does need to be re-covered.
I've owned the car for 7+ years and put 89k miles (now has 160k miles) on it using it strictly for highway commuting (hence automatic) between my house and the Balt.-Wash. Airport via I-95. I am selling the car only because we bought a new Equinox for the wife & 4 cars is too many for just 2 drivers.
The good news is, there will be more time for the 2002 Z06
I can send pics to serious parties; just ask.

Is my price really too high for this market? I figured once it was state inspected (you can have your plates within 2 hours of cash changing hands) that the car would sell in a few weeks.
Advice from the F-body faithful?
