Smile buy it or not?

Hello guys, this is my first post and I'm exited to start getting to know people in this community.
Unfortunately i still need my cobalt,.. By just sending me 10 dollars monthly I'll be able to buy one... Haha just messing with you guys i did however had a question that only you guys can answer..

I saw this 06 cobalt ss sc on craigslist that i loved, the dealer is selling @8900 however it has 110k miles on it, clean title..ill post the craigslist link In a minute, Is it worth the money or is it overpriced? Thanks

Its been modded, intake i can tell, says megan racing suspension, iv never heard of any megan racing springs or shocks so it may have coilovers on it thats a nice plus but mods take the value down. id offer them 8 at the most and walk if they ask for more.

depending on miles thats a hell of a price. I paid 10,500 for my 06 Cobalt with 72k miles on it and no mods.

Looks like it has an intake, strut bar and Megan racing coilovers.

Should be coils from Megan Racing, as I have them. Gotta check it out in person, obviously.
Gen 1 head lights, strut bar, coils, k&n(?) intake, different plug and fuel rail cover.

Agreed, I'd check the car out, take it for a test run, and offer no more than 8k. Start low though, offer like 75, and when he says no, 8500, you say 8 and you agree. =P

It says its a 2006, but has a 2007+ steering wheel. In some spots, it looks like theres a good bit of money dropped into it. If you can get it under $8,000, buy it.. Make sure you go over it a few times and test drive it before you make any decision.

Edit; It also has a 2007+ CD player with aux. They must have listed the wrong year.. I would get a CARFAX from them also.

Look at the bottom two pictures. Those are coil overs on the front of that car. It's obviously very clean under the hood. Someone took care of it. 8,900 for 110k miles though......... Shoot for $7,500.

This......

8500 range seems reasonable for an 07. Just make sure you really check it out. I'd bet they didn't have paperwork on it and took the manufacturing date off the door. It could have been repoed or a flood vehicle. Car fax for sure.
