I have a '87 Firebird Formula in my sights but i need your guys help the car has approx. 100,000 on it going from memory 305 carb motor with a 5-speed. Body is clean one or two very small spots of surface rust and maybe a couple small dings nothing major no t-tops intierior is decent and it has 3in stainless exhaust. Im worndring what you guys think this is worth. I looked up blue book and seen what its worth that way but im lookin for opinion from you guys.

anywhere from 1500-2300 if in good but "average shape"

trans am or GTA w/ all the options would go for 1500-2800 likely

How much does the guy want for it? Thats what he thinks its worth.

How much are you willing to pay for it? Thats what its actually worth.

I said $1500.00 being on the high side due to the lack of options and the engine i would pay NO more than what i said!

$2,000 if it is a really nice one. The 5speed is a plus because they are rare and makes a T56 conversion much easier.

1500 is a fair price. FYI Clean GTA's are going for 4k and up.
