That car is about $5,000 too cheap.

Go and test drive it, if it runs great jump on it, looks like a good deal, but I'd be wary of that low price.

Exactly what I was going to say. If it is then jump all over that.

maybe the "7" in "728" was suppose to be a z?

looks like a v6 to me as well... but if it was a v8 its probably has like 100% compression loss in 6 of 8 cylenders or something similar

It's got to be an LS1 if it has a 6 speed. V6's have a 5 speed. Plus he says it's a V8 728.

Go check but have it inspected before you buy it though.

It looks like the wheels are off an older car too.

The wheels are right, those came on the 98-00 I think, before the 10 spokes came out. The only thing I can think of is maybe it's a B4C car(cop car), but I thought those all came with an auto tranny. Maybe he took the emblems off to be stealth, like Brian M Or it might have gotten into a big accident and the fenders weren't replaced with Z28 emblems. That's what I would think. But either way I'd say it's worth checking into for that price.

He says it is a 6 speed. He also says it has chrome rims and clearly they are painted. Looks to me like he knows just enough about camaros to get himself in trouble but not enough to know what to do with it or what he has. Id bet it was a V6 too. Someone should call him just to find out.

$3k and a 94 3.4L with a broken torque arm!
Thats my final offer

As much as I hate to say this since as long as I have been driving(5 years), I have had an f-body, but I may lean to get a non-f-body as my next car.
