Beautiful 1991 and 1988 Z28 1LE's in vegas

This past weekend was my anniversary and my wife and I went to Vegas. I went to the car museum and consignment in the Imperial Palace and saw some great third gens.
My favorite was a Black 1991 Z28 1LE. It was the only one produced that year that was black with leather. It had 4000 miles on it or so.
Second was a Black Turbo Trans Am. This car was so clean I could have eaten off of the engine. It had about 2500 miles.
Third was a white 1988 Iroc Z 1LE. This car was also immaculate. I don't care for white too much though.
If anybody gets the chance to go to the Imperial Palace/Harrahs Casino in Vegas, you have to check out the museum. Plus Military get in for free so I was happy about that. The rest of you civilians have to pay 8 bucks. But it's well worth it.

Re: Beautiful 1991 and 1988 Z28 1LE's in vegas

I've seen both the '88 and the '91 advertised for sale on Autotrader by the museum. Sweet cars. As I recall, the black '91 has a tan leather interior.

I'm assuming that by "black Turbo Trans Am," you mean an '80 or '81 Second-Gen? The Third-Gen TTA was not offered in black. Unless it was a one-off of some kind.

When you saw the cars, did they have asking prices listed? They never advertised a price on Autotrader. Just curious.

They have an 88 1LE? And it's for sale at $25k? I may need to look into that!!!

Ok, I just looked it up on their website. They have a 1989 white 1LE for $45k, the black 1991 1LE for $27k and the 1989 TTA in white for $39,500. The mileage listed is 1,900, 10k and 2,500 respectively.

Lastly, if you go to their website, you can print a coupon for free admission for us civilians!!

I went to their museum when I was in Vegas about 6 or 7 years ago. They didn't have any third gens at the time, but they had some awesome vettes and some really cool extremely old vehicles.

they have nice collection but i was also surprised when you said 1988 1LE because there were only 4 made and probably destroyed.
