C5 buying question
Hey guys I already own a 99 FRC That I love and looks great and looking to buy another one. I found a local dealership that had a loaded 2000 triple black vert with 82000 miles they wanted 19000 I got them down to 16500. car is pretty clean and bone stock except for the magnaflow cat back. Question is does this sound like a good deal to you I have been trolling around the web sights and it seams pretty solid what do u guys think.

I would think it is a pretty good deal. I browse the classifieds here in the Austin area and would say this is a fare deal. Mileage is not to bad for an 00'. I prefer a low owner car, meaning keep it as low as possible. Seems in my experience when the car has only been through one or two they tend to be well maintained. Check the carfax and see what you think. They're not alway 100% accurate but they can ease your mind a lot. Good luck with your purchase.

If everything works and its clean, I'd say it's a good deal. Hard to say over the internet, but, if you like it, I'd say that's good enough. Nobody is going to say you got taken at that price.

Current wholesale prices for the car range from $13,200-$22,000. The car with 63,528 miles sold for $16,800 wholesale in Nashville.
Bottom line, good deal IF the mechanics are OK.
