The exterior is paired with a comfortable dark gray cloth interior that is as clean as can be and especially impressive considering the car is 27 years old! The original owners of a vehicle always take the best care of them! The Carfax is also clean with no accident or damage reports with the milage documented and service records throughout the entirety of its life! Under the hood is the stout 3.8L V6 known to last forever, paired to a 4-speed automatic transmission. This vehicle feels phenomenal going down the road, and even in our bump parking lot, which is the ultimate suspension test!

      pretty good car i owned it since 2006

      by sherm on Sunday, May 15, 2016

      The 10 bolt rear ends in these cars are junk hand mine rebuilt twice and it needs it again G.M.should have used a 12 bolt rear end. The front turn signal housings are junk they get hot and crack do to the heat the bulb gives off. The ls1 motor is bullet proof in my own opinion have given it many beat downs the 4l60e transmission shifts flawlessly took it to muncie drag way two weeks ago and ran in the 12.9s in the 1/4 thats with 154000 miles on it .

      Zero to sixty in 4 seconds Smokey burnouts in front of your neighbors house at two in the morning and I hope you like chicks because when the see you rolling through the trailer park in this muscle car they will beg you for a ride especially when you push the speedometer past 165 mph automatic or 175 mph in the 6 speed man

      Although I put a new top on it in 2010 it has recently started to leak. I think it is the rubber seal that needs to be replaced. The driver seat has ripped and needs to be recovered.
