My dad and I are going to look at a 1997 30th Anniversary today, ya know, the white with orange stripes. This one has T-tops. The guy said its "garage kept, with low miles" and is asking $7,000. Good deal?

I'd take it in a heartbeat if it had low miles.....that sounds better than the 97 trans am here that's for $5,000 and NOT garage kept with 170,000 MILES!!!!!!!!!!

I'd say anything lower than 75,000 on a 30th Anniversary is worth $7000 and if it's been garage kept for the majority of it's life, odds are pretty good it's in great shape. Sounds like a good deal to me bud!

Either magnaflow or flowmaster, I dont remember. My dad said the tips are starting to rust, so we'd end up getting a new exhaust in a few months.
