3000 gts have enough problems with them as it is! Let alone a totaled one! I would pass it up unless its not that bad and $500. Buy my car instead!

thats a good one, but when they jack the keys and want to drive and you dont want to be a dick and let them drive and stall it or almost total your car cause they dont know what to do.

Yikes, after reading about how y' all seem to hate your 3000GTs, I think I'm going to go with a Honda (as my Honda was more reliable than my Eclipse), or a Jeep. Thanks for helping me change my mind, before ending up with another bad car.

I have a stealth (same car if you didn't know) and I love it. I have not had any troubles with it other than regular maint. items. It has 144k on it.The 6g72 motor is a good motor that is plenty tough. Try to find a lower mileage one that has maint. records. If over 60k make sure the 60k maint has been done. This is one of the most important and oft overlooked aspect to owning one of these cars. If you want plain vanilla, go ahead and get a Honduh, but if you want something more get a 3kgt.
