$3000 can go a lot further than that, especially at the Oshawa co part. I would be watching it like a hawk if I lived there!
I am not picking up what you are saying there, Max? We know the car was well looked after mechanically/mtce wise so, imo, that fact is worth $$$ right there in my opinion. Much better than purchasing something from a lot of from some other person who we have no idea how the car was maintained or driven?

If it has been halfway decently maintained its worth the asking price all day long with 112K miles on it. This is a W body, a GTP with a Chevy twist.
I was hoping you'd chime in, Trav.
Reading and further looking at other posts, I am now doubting this car is an SS despite the ground effects pkg it has.
The owner told me last night it was a 3.8 but now I am thinking it might be the 3.9? (I need to look today)
As far as the other stuff goes, insurance, etc, none of that has been looked into yet. We visited some friends last night and that is when we found out it might be available to us if we want it?
I texted my 17 yr old son, who has been driving my wife's 2017 3.6 Impala and my 2013 Ram 5.7 Hemi if he was interested in it? From what I gathered, he is, but I need to talk to him personally today. The Yellow color is something I am not sure he will like?
My thoughts are, it's a full size car compared to Honda's and Toyota's and most other popular small type popular teenage/young male cars.
Insurance should be much cheaper than those type of cars? We know the car, know it hasn't been abused and has been well maintained.
Having trouble multi quoting here or quoting pg 2 replies but thanks for all the replies/info so far everyone.
I appreciate that.
