The hoopla and reality of the z16

If the seller says it is a Z16 and the buyer doesn't know what that is, then he just paid from $30k (for a bare shell) to $150-200k (for a nice car) because he liked it. He didn't pay that much? Not a Z16.

Not necessarily true. Just because the seller may know what something is doesn't mean he follows the current prices and values of it. Especially if he had owned the car for many years. Lots of rare cars have been sold where the owner is fully aware of what they have, they just don't know that prices on stuff are where they are. I know of guys locally that have Hemi cars and other rare and cool stuff that they bought new and will never sell, but have no concept of what they are actually "worth" today. Let us know what you find out, maybe he does have a Z16... you never know!
