Who knows, maybe it is a Lemon? It only has to be disclosed to the first buyer by the selling dealer (in VA anyway, I'm not sure elsewhere). Crashed on the track and fixed cash money? Carfax is junk when it comes to that sort of stuff. I'm certainly not suggesting that this particular car is either of those things but there are plenty or reasons why it could be not so good with 25k. He obviously knows his Chevy's and I am sure with a good look-over most foolishness can be ruled out. From the prices I was seeing this car seems priced almost wholesale, right? As SlimKlim says it certainly checks all the boxes, worth a look if that is what you want.
Ah, good points. These are the things that I don't think about before I buy old M3s and motorcycles and shit.
Maybe you can find a 3rd party shop near the dealership and pay them to do a full pre-purchase inspection on it and shake out anything that might've been swept under the rug? If it checks out you get a sweet car at an awesome price, if it doesn't you're just out a hundred bucks or so. :dunno:
