Another Nice Low Mileage 1984 Berlinetta On Ebay, Crazy Asking Price.

Last week, a very nice 1984 Berlinetta sold on ebay for $2225. This one is nicer, low mileage (9K), but the guy is asking $18,500 for. Don't see it bringing anywhere near that. Lots of pix, take a look.

Yea, reading the description closer says it has 9K after restoration @ 99,990 miles. I don't think they can get half of what they are asking for it.

It wouldn't be worth 18.5 if it had 0 miles on it. 18.5 could buy some fine Z28 or GTA!

It is a sharp car, but it has too much going against it... Sad really... give it a few years, maybe a decade...

Somebody's done a whole lot of work on the car, and sure is presented nice. Texas car to boot. Be worth 5 grand to the right person I'd think.

Re: Another Nice Low Mileage 1984 Berlinetta On Ebay, Crazy Asking Price.

I have seen this car listed for sale last year or so at Don Sitts here in north east Ohio. (That use to be Thompson Pontiac where my Formula was originally sold.) I believe they were asking something like $8,500 for it. Way too much $$ even then. If you look at the photos it even still has the Don Sitts emblem on it by the rear deck lid. The guy selling this on Ebay has lost his marbles.

I like his caption find one cleaner. Id love to have bought that other berlinetta just to show I can get a cleaner car for 16k less, I wonder how he'd react to that lol

Re: Another Nice Low Mileage 1984 Berlinetta On Ebay, Crazy Asking Price.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was a BC Canada car. Some people up here have delusions of grandeur. I commonly see IROC's advertised for this much. Hek a OK IROC is still $5000-$7000
