With guys like John offering up his 88 Formula for under 3000 and it includes the option of the numbers matching factory motor, or for additional cost, his Turbo Intercooled Fiero motor.  His car also took 2nd place at the All Pontiac Show and being an 88 if the economy was on its feet would sell for 6000+  (Mike Bright sold his 88 Formula last year for $6000 site unseen and the buyer paid extra for train freight to have it shipped back east)  

        So anything that has a blem on the title, or is not either A. Highly modified, or B. In Factory New Showroom condition, isn't going to fetch might right now.

Perhaps more roughage in your diet would help.

I'm confused... Are you selling your GT?

You just bought it a short while ago. What happened?

          I'm betting, he found another person selling a car cheap due to the economy that he really wants, and see's the astronomically insane prices people are asking and honestly believes that he can make a tidy profit on his burn victim.  Well other cool cars are cheap for a reason, people are not buying "cool" cars right now.   The only "cool" cars being sold, are being sold for peanuts.    Our 92 3.0l V6 Convertible Lebaron, is on Craig's list for $849 and only had one person call and they never even showed up.

HAHA!! yeah, i need more fiber...

*sigh* yeah its for sale..... i really love it, but it's not practical enough and i dont have the money to pay for stuff i want to get done....
just bought a much needed battery which almost sent me into the negative for cash, needs final paint on the fender, just finishing up all the body work, near perfection now... (my standards) will need new pads and rotors soon, and that blown manifold gasket doesn't look fun.

been on craigslist for a few months now, but if i run into a bag of money sometime, i'm keepin it.just sold the skyline this weekend too, $8500 pretty good!

Geez, what's "not practical enough" with a two-seater and next to no trunk space?

He's asking $12500?????   That's what I paid for my car brand new back in 1985.
