For $1,800 a solid L98 GTA? That seems like a pretty darn good deal, even if it needs a little bodywork. Any rust issues? Good luck with the sale.

It does have one rust issue, the spare tire well has a hole that needs patched but there are no other major rust issues. Oh Also the hatch pulldown unit needs replaced or rebuilt.

What kind of gas mileage does that thing get? Is it better than 16mpg on the highway? Does it leak any oil? What does this car need besides body work? how many miles on this car? Would it handle 40 miles a day driving? Just trying to get a car that gets better gas mileage than my truck driving it work.

It gets about 22 mpg HWY about 17 in the city. It runs fine and leaks no oil. Ive only used Synthetic oil for all the oil changes too. The only thing it needs besides body work is rear brake pads and the hatch pull down motor needs replaced or rebuilt. Interior is in fair shape but isnt perfect. Oh and it does need a new cat if youre going to have to take it to emissions. Right now its registered up north so I dont gotta worry about it.

I'd buy it for a DD if I had the cash right now. You should just keep it, white gta's are my favorite that's for sure. Paint it a pearl white with blue pearl, leave the spoiler off, lower it with some nice rims and you'd have a dead sexy car imo.

I like white too its my 2nd favorite color on a gta, but black with digital dash is the one I really want.

You may have better luck when people start getting their tax refunds back. It's just a crappy time of year to sell a car like that. Personally I'd be all over it when I get my taxes back but I want a v6 for a DD. Bump for you.

I was j/k with my "offer". Agreed, maybe the worst time to sell a car is right now but with spring coming, that will change.

I'd just hold onto it until then unless you need money that bad, JMHO.

My parents neighbor has a 89' Camaro RS 305 TBI/5 speed hardtop, very nice shape and it was babied almost its whole life(never winter driven/garaged) until he started parking it outside a few years back. He wanted something like 6,500 for it....had only 60k miles or so at the time but yikes.
