Thanks...too bad we never got to meet up and go on a ride...I will be going to the show this Saturday though even though the car is gone. I'm sure I will get another vette someday.

$10k for that car with those issues is a great trade in price, IMO.
$10k on a 94 vette in this economy is good. They will be hard pressed to move it.

What did you trade in on? If you traded in to a 30+k car, I can see why they would do that.

I actually bought a Mazda 3 5 door for about 20 grand. The 2.5 was much nicer than the 2.0 in the sedan. The kids love it and my daughter actually cried when she found out I traded in my vette on it.

a friend of mine traded his 95 coupe (w/ 64K on the clock) - got $9500 on trade on a used 2007 colorado. the price of the truck seemed high, so in reality, they probably gave him $6500. the dealer has it on the lot for $13995.
