Looks in pretty good shape-I'm not much for body kits-but they do
sell alot of them, as far as wheels go-guys are always changing them so that wouldn't stop me, the mileage is a postive-I'm gonna say
8500-9000K, course I'm predjudiced cause I have an 87. BTW, I call BS on anything earlier than a 90-no opti concerns here.

$7000.00 is all the money. Move it to SD when the fleet is in.

I paid 10500 for my 87. But it had great paint less than 2 years old, a soft top that was only 4 years old. Has a great interior. Does not have a body kit. Has brand new AFS Black Chrome ZR1 wheels w/ new tires. Has a new Dynomax and Magnaflow exhaust. Has roller tip rockers. Has taylor perf wires. It also came with a pile of new weatherstripping, so I don't have to buy that.

Mine has 45,600 miles. It is also a more desirable color than that. We also don't really know how well it was maintained. I bought mine from corvetteronw, and he is a known Corvette Enthusiast, who doesn't ever trash or neglect his cars.

I wouldn't pay more than $6500 because the minute I got it, I would rip off that the body kit and get it repainted. I would also try to get some ZR1 wheels or some sawblades. I'm NOT ripping on your car, I'm shooting straight about it. Most people would do what I am saying or similar.

Good Luck & I hope you sell,

Dude won't budge on the price. I told my mom that she was wasting her time. Whatever, maybe somebody wants it for 10.5K. He had an offer a year ago for 10.5K and he wouldn't take it. Must be worth more than that!

Corvette Magazine says $12,700 for "average" condition....but they get their numbers from the Corvette dealers who have a vested interest in seeing really high selling prices.
Realistically, I'd say $7000-$8000.

Old post, but the owner has lowered his price to 9K. I'll update the for sale add.

Anyone who knows/really likes vettes will see past the bodykit, etc. Its a decent vert with fairly low mileage, interior looks good..Should be able to get a half decent price. If a vette shows well it will sell, period. THats what sold me on mine when I bought it and I imagine in part the same reason its selling.

You also have to bring into account the car's condition. How well does it run? It may have low miles, but does that mean its been sitting for a while? Thats not good for it. Body kits and gold wheels are a huge turnoff for most people too. I'd have to say if everythings good, i'd expect $6000-$7000 out of it.
