I have found a 1995 3000GT for sale. It is the base model and the only option on it is the black leather interior. The car has a brand new motor, transmission, clutch, and $3000 paint job. The motor and tranny was replaced because the original owner bent valves and broke the timing belt. Also the clutch was replaced because it slipped. It was painted because the lady who I may buy it from did not like the forest green color on it. So she painted it canary yellow. The new motor, tranny, and clutch only have under 2000 miles on it. The title is clear. It is for sale for $5000. She is only selling it because she is clearing out alot of her collection because now she has to pay the bill of an 06 Vette. They are also including the warranty they got on the new parts in it. Is this a steal or something i should beware of??? Also do 95 3000GT have alot of problems i should be aware of??

I just bought a 1995 3000gt base model in december for $7500. The car is in excelent shape with very low miles. I feel as if i got a great deal on it. Since this car that you're looking at has a new motor, transmission, and clutch, and paint job (canary yellow, which i think looks wicked awesome), and the seller is only asking $5000 for it, i'd say hit that deal up right away. It sounds like the owner drove the car very rough. From what i hear, it is recommended that the timing belt is changed every 60,000 miles or so. For some reason the stock timing belts on the 3000gt's don't last very long. So it doesn't really surprise me that the timing belt broke...but bending valves is ridiculous. I'd get a carfax report on it and see if that turns out good. If it does, i'd have to say go ahead and buy the car. The only real problem that i know of with the 3000gt is what i mentioned before about the timing belt going bad. Other than that, it is an amazing car and REALLY fun to drive. So if you decide to buy the car, i'm sure that you won't be disappointed. Also if you get the car, i'd suggest joining the "3000gt zone" yahoo group. It's a great place to get answers from fellow 3000gt owners. Have fun!

why somebody will buy and repaint it later?If you have the vin#check it out with car fax, you will spend few $$,car fax will search nationwide data base & will provide the results.GOOD LUCK!
