If it gets his motor goin then it is dang well worth it. You cannot buy that feeling! Especially if it was an LT4!

Triple white? Was that a color back then.?
My '94FLSTC is triple black, I thought only HD had that option (trademark?)

Probably not out of line at all for a clean car. I will be buying a 96 convert this fall, have been shopping, there are all kinds of very low mile ones around, anywhere from $24 to $30 large. The car you are talking about probably sold for about $40 ten years ago, if like new is probably worth what he paid for it, IMO.

So, gray could be misinterpreted as "white". Or, then again, someone could've done a color swap on the seats and other parts of the interior. It's been done before. Someone wanted, but couldn't get a white interior, so they created it.
I'd say the price could be in line for an A-1 condition car. Bruggerman's correct; they are out there and someone's buying them.

It sounds to me that it's not so much about his being ripped of as it does that you don't want him to be happy...Jeez, I need to see a shrink!

Most people do want to pay a fair price for their car, even a Corvette. If the guy who purchased the car had posted on here, asking for honest opinions on what he paid, there would be several (including me) suggesting that the price seems a little high. It's not way off the mark though.
