The '88 is a beauty, but I'd have to go with the '96 SSE.

The gold one is sharp,Mighty nice find!!!!!

Look at the 96 before a decision is made. Too bad there wasn't a pic of it also.

Go with the 96 if it checks out ok. Thats way too much gold IMO, plus its a 17 year old car.

Dude, that 88 is a beauty. I have never even seen a gold 88-91 SSE until now. Personally I would take the 88, but I'm a bit partial to this gen.

I'm all about the '88. You just don't see them that nice anymore, and never in that color in ANY condition. That thing looks mint, and it'* rare. It'* worth more than the $1000 he'* asking for it.

As for the other one, I'm sure it'* a nice Bonneville. Just like everyone else'* nice Bonneville.
