Calling GTO Experts, Please Look @ This Goat For Me
So I'm stilling a newb when it comes to these cars, but I'm learning. This car here looks like it has some SAP parts on it, by the bumpers & spoiler. How much more is one of these worth compared to a regular GTO? I'm sure the seller has no idea what it is. Thanks!
Seems like a good deal. $3,285 below book for an 05 with 29K. Check her out carefully and if all looks good pull the triger... BTW - I don't consider myself a GTO expert, not yet anyway...
What happened to the Camero you were going to trade for?
I'm not an expert by no means either but it seems to look good.
I would take it for a test drive and if possible take it to a machanic to have him look it over.
19,000 is a pretty good price, I bought my 05 with 6500 miles on it for 21,000.
The car has the complete SAP on it. The price is not bad either, and if they are asking 19,900 straight up they really mean 17-18,000. Depending on any issues with the car, and everything checks out, you got a pretty nice snag.
For that price, make sure you check it out really good before taking it.
The entire kit when installed would have upped the price about 2,500-3K or so new. Used, the kit isn't bringing any real value unless you remove it and piece it out.
No expert here either.

I called the seller, I got him down to $18900 & $17k trade in for my Denali. I owe $19k, so I'd be $2k upside down. Which will get worse if I wait a few weeks.
The guy with the Camaro hasn't got back to me, he was hoping to do it straight across trade. We left it at $1k plus his car but he had to think about it. It's an awesome ride no doubt. But with the headers & off road y pipe through Borlas it's crazy loud. Louder than my vette with LT's, catted X, and Corsa's.
I think the GTO is a better deal, plus being able to trade in my truck makes it an easy transaction. I'm gonna give it a week to see if I can sell the Denali privately for atleast my pay off. If not, I might be a goat owner.
Gotcha...Not to sound like a used car dealer, but that Goat my not be around in a week...

As Judge said, that's a full SAP package. Looks clean and priced right. Get all the warranty repair history known as the GMVIS report (need vin number) at a dealership or join ls1 and request one on this thread...

I was told it's a 1 owner car, older guy, original owner worked for a GMC/Pontiac dealership, and bought it from his work when it was new. He put the wheels & aftermarket deck, which is cool cause that's one less thing for me to do. I'll either post up in that thread, or call up the original selling dealer and have them give it to me.
