my 82 base has seen better days. To me its not worth the work to bring it to the condition I desire. alright lets get to the point. A guy I know is selling his mint and i mean mint gsl-se. This car is so ******* sweet. Its that kinda light metalic blue-ish color no flaws at all. No rust any where; doors, sun roof, rear hatch I mean no where. It has sotck rims that u can brush your teeth in, " like a mirror". brand new tires. Racing beat muffler. Perfect greay cloth interior. The engine is all stock and un touched with 96000 miles. garage kept and it shows in every aspect. You can eat of any surface of this car. Its as close to show room condition as u can get for a 21 year old car. heres my dilemma he wants 5k,,,,,, what do yall think

honestly it sounds like a sweeet car but 5k is a little high.

i honestly say 3.5k tops and that would be pushing it. for 5k you can buy a TII with similar miles.!

5k for a perfect car is worth the $$. a buddy of mine sold his 50k mile car for 9k.... and then he bought a really nice unrestored one, and rebuilt the engine, its nearly flawless, but he's got 8k into it

IMO, you can't go wrong buying mint. If you intend to keep the car and keep it nice, you'll never regret it. You'll always spend more to get a beater looking sweet than you'll pay for a sweet car to begin with.

yeah to redo a gsl-se is a 5-10k deal, depending mostly on condition of the body, and how much you're paying for paint
