car help..need opinions and advice
Ok as some of you know i have been wrestling with the idea of getting a car again as im a car guy at heart, and idk after driving the bravada for like a yr or so im wanting a car again,so i can really get out on the highway and have some fun or take corners at 65-70 again(ah the good ol days of having a cav lol) and just over all have a car again,and get better than 16mpgs at best lol
now honestly im a car buying novice(been lucky enough to have had 2 of my last three cars bought for me by parents,Yay for competing separated parents lol) and i bought my last car but think i overpayed a bit..so does the below car and price seem fair asking price for that car or if i like it what woulds be a good bargaining price?
well driven round the other day i found a 94 Pontiac Grand prix GTP that i kinda like..it has a 3.4L DOHC V6(ik nothing bout this motor,so any input there would be awsome),118k miles,the GT/GTP bodykit,leather interior,sunroof,power options and what im guessing is a alpine cd changer on the factory deck..and there asking price is $2495.00
pix
so what you guys think..worth it?

First thing I'd ask is why the hood doesn't seem to sit right. Big gap at front. Accident or did omeone have it off for maintenance? Maybe it's just the way it came out in your pix. Nice steam clean job on the engine compart,ent.

It looks straight, but may just be the bumpers on the corners of the hood... Looking at the side shot though, it looks as though the nose is what is misaligned since there is a gap where it meets the fender as well.
Those 3.4L DOHC engines can be somewhat problematic with their intake manifold gaskets so pull the oil fill cap and check for signs of sludge.

Seems to be a lot of money for a 94 to me...
