Honestly depends on motor/tranny combo for exact price but I would guess around 1200-1500. I bought my 88 firebird 5.0TBI/Auto with 167k for $1600 in 2009.

Ghettobird nailed it, his valuation is spot on.

This. At 250k might as well plan a new motor with the purchase unless you want to run it into the ground

1000 bucks would be the top of the mark.

Re: 89 rs approximate value?

looks like im late to the party on this one, you have more than likely already decided and bought or passed on the car

but i'll throw my in anyway


from the description it sounds like a $500 car, top mark i would agree with Jono4820 and say 1K, and not a penny more

by "Z28 wheels" do you mean IROC wheels, or the standard wheel that came on all RS's

needing body work and paint, and being an RS hurts the value of the car, especially if it is a V6, but the L03 wouldn't bring any more money any way


look at my thread about my IROC, you will see both my RS and my IROC were bought for $500(although i am a deal seeker and was related to the IROC owner), the IROC is ROUGH but restore-able(needs only fuel pump and clutch to be driveable) the RS needs to be painted for it to be 100% but was a solid car(and good looking) when purchased, IROC has 73k on it, RS had 64K when bought(99k now)
