Default Brother got a '95: Fair Deal?

I went and looked at the car for him and even negotiated the price a little bit. Curious if you guys think it's fair.

Car is a '95 GT with 127k miles. It's the dark green (don't know the actual color name), 5sp, it runs quite well, has new brakes and plugs/wires.

Interior is a 9/10 in my opinion, and the exterior is a clay bar/polish/seal/wax away from being an 8/10.

Only mods are an intake, o/r x, and some sort of flowmaster catback.

Guy was asking 4500 and I offered 3500.

We agreed on 3800, which I still believe is a little high but my brother is happy which is the important part.

Whatcha guys think? Should we have kept looking?

well considering you live in an igloo, you wasted your money. coulda bought 5 new huskies for that kinda loot

just playin.....if it's that clean...he!!s yes its worth it

dark green on a fox is "deep emerald green"

dont really know if it's the same for a sn95 car...honestly never seen one that color. so check the color code on the door tag too (ext)

the dark green in the 95s was called deep forest green, thats color of mine

I bought mine for 4400 a few years ago with similar mods and millage, but in auto

Sounds like an alright deal to me if the car is in as good of shape you described.

I'm glad you think it's a decent deal.

I just thought...17 years old, 127k miles, should be practically free lol... So I was hesitant to negotiate on his behalf.

Like I said, it's in really good condition when considering it is as old as your average sophmore skank in High School.

Sounds pretty fair to me if it's in good condition like you said. Mine (which is forest green also) blue books for about the same price nowadays with a new convertible top and an automatic.

Different strokes for different folks mang, haha. I'd love to have a notch but it's nice having a decent interior. Now if only I had the cash to replace my carpet and redo the seats.
