Hello all,
So ive always loved cars , formally owning many modded mustangs and currently own a SC corvette. I been in the market for a 86-87 GN for past month and its been a real pain.
Like most people buying a car im looking for a good deal . Well there aren't many of these cars so been putting in a lot of time searching ,making calls and even looking at a couple. I have to tell you my latest story. I'm in Ohio , found a car in Michigan about 200 miles from me that seemed priced right . I called the guy, asked him the normal questions . He seemed pleasant . Told me he would except $10k cash. I told him I had to do a few things and would text him within a few hours. I texted and said would you except 9500 if i drove out today?He text back saying he needed 10500 for car. I said what? You just said 10k.
I decided I would just take a risk and drive out there hoping when I put cash in his face he might be more willing to negotiate . I called and text him saying when is good for me to come see car? No response! So this morning I text him again basically saying do you want to sell your car or what? He text back 3 hours later. text said that he doesn't want to sell car to a out of state buyer for simplicity . That's absolutely crazy , I'm 3 hours away and he new from the beginning i was from Ohio. only thing i can think of is car wasnt what he said it was or he is just plain insane. . I have never had such a hard time finding a car! Luckily im a very determined person and will for sure find the one I want at a price I'm willing to pay. Anyway thanks for reading.........................Mike
