how much is it worth?
im thinking of buying this vette:
1988 black coupe, auto trans, 85k orig miles, clean title, new leather on seats, only problem is paint fade on the mirrors, original paint in good condition, runs great and strong.
going to buy it for 4000.00 i know its worth more than what im paying
just want some opinions on how much it is actually worth 
thanks.

Good Deal!
Sounds like you're getting a real good deal! You'll probably get a few posts here saying it's only worth $2500.00. Ignore those as those low price quotes are for high mileage poor condition cars. Some guys preach this unless they're the ones trying to sell it. 
I would say by the condition you mention that it should be in the $6000 to $8000 range or more if it has maintainance and ownership records.

Finally, an intelligent post about C4 prices.You are getting a screaming deal at $4000 for that car from the condition you describe.
