Hey, I'm wondering if I could get some advice from you folks. I owned a classic a while ago, but I don't know much about anything after 73 for these cars.
Anyway, I'm looking at a 94 GT 5spd manual. Hardtop, dark green with gold-ish accents (not ricey or anything) Everything that I can SEE looks stock, even the wheels, though I haven't contacted the owner to really go through it yet. Advertises "custom exhaust", but that could be anything, I know. Very clean body and interior, a couple small scratches on the paint on rear quarters, but I had to LOOK to find them. Tires are in good shape. No body damage to speak of.
All in all, a very nice stock looking car. While I realize my "knowledge" of it is limited until I get in and take it for a ride, I'm wondering what you guys can tell me generally about things to look for on this car. Problems specifically to keep in mind? is there a "magic miliage" like there are on some cars, after which stuff just KEEPS breaking?
the price listed is 3800, which seems low to me, so I'm a bit suspicious.
What do you think? Things to watch for when I go check it out?
EDIT: As a side note, the 3800 might not be AS suspicious as it initially seems. I'm at college, it could be somebody graduating and leaving the area, trying to get rid of the car. You see pretty surprisingly low prices for private sales out here sometimes, for just that reason.
