What do you guys think of this deal? I have mainly been looking for an IROC, but happened to come across this on CL today.

Re: Peoria IL CL listing

I like it but I wouldn't ever buy a thirdgen that has had work done to it. I would look it over really closely and have him show you receipts confirming all the parts purchased dates and make sure they are actually "forged." If it all pans out offer 2-2500.

Re: Peoria IL CL listing

I was planning on asking for proof of the work. I appreciate your response. Just caught my interest. Have not seen a lot of third gens for sale around here so this caught my eye. Guess everyone has them locked away in there garage. Just trying to snag one to throw in my garage since I have the means to.

Re: Peoria IL CL listing

I never buy a car when I can see spliced and cut wiring dangling out from under neath the dashboard...and I work in Electronics. TOO many headaches there. Personally, I'd keep looking.

Re: Peoria IL CL listing

I appreciate your input. I did not get a chance to see the car so I am not sure of all the conditions. As a former navy nuclear electrician who went on to study electronics in college the electrical system is the least of my worries...haha. But, yes I plan on continuing to look for cars in great shape to park in my garage. I'm a young guy and drove an 85 z28 5speed with the LG4 through high school. Have always hated selling that car and so I search for another.
