For that price you could buy an LS1 car and be success.

ehh, i would say 4500 if it had a decent paint job. Even though it does have (I'll use "rare" loosely) options.

Digital dashes aren't that uncommon, hell, I got one in the attic here. The notch hatch is hard to find (especially a ACTUAL GM one), but you can find them. A 5 speed manual .... hardly rare.

Do want :drool: Although I have heard the digital dashes suck in direct sunlight. I would say the Notch 5 speed combo is more rare than the 350 auto but I dont know the numbers that well. A little too high priced. If you get it I wouldnt mind making a day trip to come look at it and be your new best friend. I actually want to see how the rear strut brackets are clearanced into the rear panels

I have 2 GM notch hatches BTW :lol:

I think he meant a Gen1 SBC, not the red-headed step child abortion Gen2 ;)

I could be wrong though. :mrgreen::moon:

Sweet GTA.. I had a white 88 GTA with a 305 5 speed. Ran pretty good. This one is really cool with the Notch back and digital dash but the thing I like the best is the rear seats. Very cool. If you had the extra cash I would pick it up..

Its alright they think they cured AIDS so its no biggy.

i spotted some rust on it in certain areas, so asked the seller about rust specifically and was told i could come look at the car, no answer to the rust, therefore i assume it is an issue.

Is it really a notchback or is it more of a non-aerocoupe style hatchback? Strikes me as the latter.
