That's a lot of car for $1,100

Gobs of potential if the engine is still strong.. It wasn't the best year for the 300, but the foundation is good. It's a rear-wheel drive, V-6 sports car with 4 wheel independent suspension.

Yes sir! I was looking for a 88 but their rare now, the 83 and 86 were the top performers of this model along with the 88. Wink

Cool car, should be pretty darned quick aswell!! High mileage, but I think those engines are fairly bullet proof. I love those two dials in the middle of the dash aswell, I reckon they're pretty cool, not too sure about the 'one lady owner' pink steering lock though. Undecided

Still, a lot of car for the money & not short on power either. Nice buy skynoz.

Cheers,

20 yrs old and 300,000 miles ? Huh

Thats 467,864 km in my book.....my car is tired now, with almost 360,000km.......unless the engine has had a major rebuild, I'd be very wary of a car with that much life behind it..... Undecided

Even if the engine had a rod sticking out the side of it, it's not a bad deal @ $1,100

Rebuild the engine/tranny/rear-end for about $4,000.. put another $1,000 into the suspension and another $1,000 into paint and misc .. and you've got what might as well be a $25,000 sports car for barely $7,000
