I think that is a fair price for that car. If you look how much it has and what condition it is in I think that is more than fair. Man he isn't too far away from me. If only I had the cash

Is it just me or do the pictures really really suck...some stuff is cut out of the frame...he manages to show the whole car but in most of the pictures there are parts cut out that might be worth seeing

Very shoddy... $10,000 and the hood supports are shot? Come on the guy used 'the club' to hold the hood up. Not very clean either.

its been sitting, little things go bad, but it still rip the $hit out of most cars out there. Whats not to like, detail it, replace the seat covers with NOS, hood struts and presto its very fast AND clean

Worth every penny for the mods done to it.

easily twice that amount to build that car with those options.

if i were serious i'd send an apraiser to check it out. if everything looked good that would be a pretty decent deal. i'm not so sure about the 600 horses but he definately has a nice list to put the car up there. if it's in any decent condition at all and runs strong it's worth it.

You'll recall that at it's fastest, the Corvette ZR1 pulled off 181 MPH, but not w/o speed limiting restrictions removed.

The funny thing is the GTA is a heavy luxury version so it's not the best choice to race, but still you could race in style... hehe

Looks rather 'plain jane' though appearance wise...until you get in.

I agree with Drew on the hood struts. What would it cost, 40 bucks and a half hour to install? If the owner couldn't be bothered to do that then it makes me wonder on what else was skimped on.
