Ok guys fair enough.

Based on what I see people asking for theirs on Autotrader in my area (although I am aware that you can ask whatever you want, and that doesn't mean our going to get it).

Also basing my price on what I've seen other cars actually go for, not as clean, higher miles, and no extras (like two sets of wheels).

I planned on setting a price of $23,900 and stopping at $23,000.

That being said, I am ready for the beatings. I am sure this thread will grow with people telling me I'm crazy. But, before you do, shop around, not just on-line or in the trader, actually go see the car. If you find cheaper, fine, but are you getting as nice of a car?

I shopped for nearly 1-year before I bought this one. Finally found this one in August of '04. (17,200 miles then). Looked at alot of rags before I found it.

Anyway, If someone whats it, I WILL sell it, if not, I will keep it. My Grand National and Work take up all of my time, I only put 300 miles on this summer.

 

I agree.
Like I said earlier, if anyone has one in that condition for 14k, give me a call.
Funny thing, I have not got a PM yet.
Next time you ask a question, maybe ask for educated responses.

 

Once you get over 20k you are getting to LT4 ragtop prices. 90-91 ZR1s can be had under 25k with under 35000 miles and these aren't wrecks. Any car that is 10+ years with 20k or less on the clock is probably going to be pristine. Certainly if you check the pics on lilredvette2's 95 you will see it doesn't seem to have a blemish, and Scottym has a 96 LT1 with only 11k miles so it is likely comparable to yours in overall condition.

The right car will always be worth more to the right local buyer. It more likely you will get your best number from a someone who doesn't have as many low mileage options or price comparisons as are on this site. Remote purchasers don't have the luxury of repeated viewings or just being blown away by a face to face viewing of that rare color. I will pay a couple thousand more for a car that is in my neighborhood.
I don't know that the anniversary year will make a difference. It didn't on my 03. I think most buyers would sooner have a 96 for the LT4. The trick is the Ruby color. You almost never see them and it is like the Admiral Blue. Some colors make people say "nice Vette" but the Ruby is a "wow" color if that makes any sense

The dealer prices are very high for these cars because they can sit on them for months, and they also have the carrot of trade ins and financing and that is a lot of what your local buyers will be comparing yours with. Also you probably have less clean cars in the north than in the hot states so maybe an Ohio car will bring more than an Az car for instance.

Anyways good luck with the sale. A number of people have made a point of reminding this board when they sold their car for a price that we told them was higher than they could hope for.

 

No its called working and I have a very good friend that might be interested in a 40th. I will PM you.

 

just putting in my 2 cents worth for whatever...fellow down the road as a ruby for sale for 14 something. Hope this helps..no,i dont know the milage or anything else, Reason i know is that a kid ar work is his next door neighbor as was talking about it.

 

Ditto that. I'd buy it today for 12.5
