I think you could have gotten it for less. I paid 7k for my 95' with 83k miles on it.

Good deal? Bad Deal? Got totally hosed? It doesn't matter. What can you do, even if you did get "shafted"?

You got a great car. That's it!

Now......post picks and take the "Red Pill" and see how far the rabbit hole goes....

It's an average price. The fact is that people from Colorado, illinois, North Carolina, etc.. come in here posting how they got their 95 SC for $8k and how great of a deal it was, then people from cali come in with a 92 for the same price and it is STILL a good deal based on their location. Being a Cali car, I'd say you did fine.

So basically................. it doesn't matter.

Nobody wants sedans or coups here in Colorado. Everyone wants to drive an AWD SUV or F350, so that drives down the prices of everything else.

Here in FL i can get SC3's and SC4's all day long in good condition for average 3-5k, but florida is different then most of the US. New England in general also seems to have cheaper SC's.

If you want a car to work on or motorswap, one with like 200k miles, faded paint, needs new leather interior, here in FL u can pick em up for 1-2k in otherwise good running cond.

Well ithought it was a steal when i seen it, everything is in immaculate condition, leather with no tears , no liquid spills, no stains, no smells, dash not cracked, engine sounds good and the exhaust sounds amazing. Its all stock and i hate the rims but o well im gettin some soon enough but im goin for the carbon fiber look with the stock paint, carbon fiber hood and trunk with spoiler and if i can find some carbon fiber lips ill keep the stock bumper.

Yep, Exarus I called a deallership on a car with like 60k on it that was loaded. Asking price was 19k, the dealer told me it have been siting on the lot a 1 month so he was lowering the price to the low low 17.5k. Guess if I wait another 7 months it will be about where it should be. Hey my Ram 3500 with the cumming's turbo gets 18 highway.....the parents surburan gets about 10 though lol.
