In my honest opinion, that's overpriced.
Looks to be a nice car, but not for $34.5k. Especially not with nearly 22k on the clock.
I'd pay 25k, maybe. It's pretty much a base 08 C6, that's going at a price point for which you could probably get into a Z06 ( with more miles ). Just my .02 cents!

If your interested here is a link to my old Atomic Orange Z06 that I sold last June, new owner traded it in on a Honda!!! I made a mistake selling it and purchased another Atomic Orange Z06 a few months ago

Spend a little more and get a Z06. I believe the dealer has some room to come down on the price as I was informed that they took it in on trade at 36k

Looks good but, does seem a bit high.
My 2010 3lt I bought last month was only $32k with 39k miles. If it's what you want price won't matter just be sure.

Here's the link to nada. Based on book value it's listed over retail. It's worth about $26k to $27k. Never pay retail because of the availability of the Corvettes. You can get a 2010 Grand Sport for that price, which would give you a more modern look with the Z06 fenders. Keep looking, there's several out there.

Mid 20's car and not even close to a mid 30's car. It is a base with nearly no options coupe with a manual trans and probably sold new 7 years ago for not a lot more than they are now asking.

Go to Edmunds.com and get a value, they are the most accurate, comprehensive and current of any of the car value site. I have owned more than 2 dozen vettes and when I make an offer I base it on Edmunds trade in and never pay more than private party value.

Mines a bit of a better deal TXredc3 has looked at the car for a buyer if you would like to know the true condition.

Just drove the car and it is very nice not exactly a base model it does have the Z51 package and duel mode exhaust, shift kit and after market intake. But he would only drop to $33,200.

Way overpriced with the only option being Z51 and after market mods do not add value they deduct from the value of a stock car. You can do way better than that. The car is over 7 years old now.

Forum dealers were advertising right here on the corvette forum left over brand new 2011 and 2012 manual coupes a couple of years back in the mid to upper 30's.

To be honest. I live about 20 minutes from you and visited premier before and their customer service is terrible and cars are way over priced. I try to come down 2K on a car and they wouldn't budge so i left. You can find a 2008 with that price for 28K. There is a nice white one on craigslist in the hayward area going for 27.5K with low miles.

Thanks everyone for all the advice and suggestions the car is very nice but also overpriced. They would only come down 1200 off the 34500 asking price. I found someone else on this forum who lives near me and meeting him tomorrow to look at his car.Jetstream Blue

Well I finally found the right car and I think the right price ($27000)from a member here. 2009 Z51 LSB M6 thanks again to everyone here that helped steer me in the right direction. Thanks Glen for making this a very smooth transfer.
