You should probably try posting in the appearance or the lounge sections so you dont get in trouble from the moderators.

IMO i dont care for the tail lights or the spoiler. looks a little to ricey to me.

Yea definitely fits the profile of a "domestic ricer"! Although i love that hood. So whats the mileage on it? I seen it said engine rebuild but nothing about mileage. Seems like a good price for a z with a recently rebuilt motor. Always be careful tho, take it for some test drives before you buy it or have a knowledgable mechanic look it over for ya. Other than that, to each his own!

109k on the mileage. 1k mileage after rebuild, I have the # of the mech that did the rebuild.

He is putting in a stereo system before he sells.

Not really. Sometimes people just get tired of one thing and want to move on but there is always a possibility there is something wrong, hence what i said in my first post. But if i was you i would tell him to keep all the stereo stuuf, like those speakers in the hatch and ask him to knock off some $$$. You dont need all that extra weight anyways!!!

It doesn't look too bad to me. The taillights just have covers on them and can be taken off. The spoiler would be a little bit tougher though. That particular spoiler extends over the deck where the original one never would have gone. There's a good chance that it has worn away the paint in some areas, I know the one on my car took some paint off.

I would hold out for a better car. You can prob find a nice, original motor, adult owned non abused LT1 for the same price. I bought mine from a college student, and well, I wish I had let it pass up. But oh well, you live and learn.

Its a nice lookin Z. Id say if you really liked it and everything seemed find with it you should see if he could give you a warranty because the engine was rebuilt.

Do you like the car? If you like the appearance upgrades,then go for it.
