Default What's she worth?

How much is an immaculate 2012 ZR 1 Centennial Edition with PDE track package and 2700 miles on it worth? It also has Dewitts high performance radiator, Katech high capacity heat exchanger and Pratt Miller blower snout with Halltech carbon fiber bee hive.

Thanks in advance.

mods count for nothing in my book. Not sure about the price.

Mod won't add value and only imply you've tracked the car. I'd say a hundy or thereabouts on the price if you find the right buyer, maybe a touch less.

Unless you find the right buyer, you might want to pull off the mods and sell them seperate. I know some here would be interested, including myself.

$100K sounds about right, as equipped. New 2013's (stock) nicely optioned can be had for around $113K +/-
from at least one CF vendor.

All this has proven to be true from ZR1's down to a "Cheby Vega", you get little to nothing back from mods.

What's so hard to believe friend?...

Guys that spent a lot on mods want to believe they add value, probably what they've been telling the wife.

the right answer if you know the auto business : " what someone is willing to pay" is what it's worth.

I agree that the mods add next to zero except for the exact buyer who may want to do the same thing! As for it's value I agree with in the 90's, 2013's are being heavily discounted already as are whatever left over 12's plus zero % financing! P.S. I sold my bone stock ACR last year and it spent it's short life on the track, some guys buy the top dog just to say they have it, some buy and use it for it's purpose! Most guys don't even know not to drive these cars on cold pavement, then they wreck 'em!! OP are you selling or buying this car?

What are the condition of the tires? Anything wrong with the front air dam? Does it have the steering wheel vibration?

These were the first 3 questions I asked every time. Cause I looked at quite a few were the owner said "oh, its just like it rolled off the show room floor" only to show up and it have a busted up air dam or something else stupid.

TOP notch shape, $90, mid $88, low $85.

I really don't believe the Centennial edition will add any value. It was just more money for a sticker of a guy on your steering wheel.

Right... I know nothing about modded cars.
You look really stupid since your comment was directed at QUIKAG's and my responses. QUIKAG tracks his ZR1 regularlly and I have tracked a heavily modified Camaro for many years. What I said we true, unless you happed to find that right guy who was planning your mods you are not going to any value for your mods unless you sell them seperate. I plan to start tracking the ZR1 soon so that is why I said I would be interested in his mods.

Might find someone willing to go mid 90's but there are still a few new '11s out there that you can get for less. You can probably find a new '12 for 100k, maybe less.

The mods can help or hurt resale, depending on the type of guy looking at it so there's no right answer there. For me, I wouldn't buy a modded ZR1 but that's just my preference. It's already got more than enough kick *** in it for me and I want the factory warranty. There are guys on here that have bought modded ZR1s and are completely satisfied.

Just keep the car if you can. It has to be gorgeous. At any rate, good luck with whatever you end up doing. By now, you're probably swamped with PMs from guys willing to take it off your hands for 70K (cash, of course!).

How much it's worth depends on a lot of things. I picked up a '11 W/6k no mods for $82k. I told him I only had that much to spend (I was honest) & he said yes.The seller was ultra motivated & I feel that I got a great deal. Only you know your bottom line, ppl will lowball the hell out of you. No one here knows for sure.
