Looking hard at a '95 Auto,Vert. 77,000 ,miles. Very clean except for the top that will need to be replaced.White w/ Tan top.Good rubber and runs strong with -0- leaks. Interior is in very good condition and everything works.

$12,300 Deal or NO Deal ?

I have really appreciated the input from this group!

I don't own a Vette yet, but I am saving and pricing. I say DEAL! Just put a black or white top on it when you replace...

I always consider maintenance over mileage as the measure of a good car.
I've seen neglected 50,000 mile cars that don't measure up to higher mileage well maintaned cars . If you like the service history ( if it is available) and the overall appearance ,then it sounds like a good price .

RED c4 has the good comment, check to see if the car has been maintained as it should be. I know some very low mile cars that are junk. The top will run you about a grand. Does it has the selectable suspension, and does it work along with everything else? Drop $100 and have a gm dealer inspect the car for you, they will give you a complete list (including a number of things you may elect not to fix, or save for later) of every item on the car that is substandard. I have walked away from a half dozen cars that I was ready to buy until the mechanic put it up on a lift and/or gave it a thourough inspection.
