Bought a Chevy Cavalier z24?

Question

I just bought a 1997 Z24 Coupe, the KBB is 3240 in perfect condition, Id list this car in good which was 3050 the guy wanted 2900 for it but i talked him down to 2100, it has 128k but the engine runs clean and has no rust, it had a few spots on it were it was patched but nothing huge and you werent able to tell unless you looked (they did a good patch job) the breaks are new and the interior is good, was this good for my money (2390 after registration plates, exc.)

Answer 1

yea that's a good deal.

Answer 2

i wouldn't have.  GM still hadn't gotten the handle on the ecotec motors by then and was having trouble with blown motors.  it was actaully rare for those cars to break 100K without it.

Answer 3

Sounds like you pared the guy down pretty far from his initial asking price.  He must really need the money.

Sounds like a good deal.  The Cavalier is no ball of fire, but they do okay.
