Default Need help

i am thinking about selling my (my wife's) 86 coupe. i am having trouble gauging what the market value is due to its low miles. (7,500) and a lack of similar cars currently on the market. it's a yellow auto and is basically stock besides an updated stereo and magnaflow catback. any thoughts would be appreciated. this is not a "for sale" listing as i am only researching at this point. i'll post it in the proper area if i decide to sell it. thanks.

The updated stereo and the catback exhaust will do terrible things to the value of an ultra low mileage vette. It is basically worth what someone will pay for it. Big help, huh? Couple of things. What would YOU pay for it? What would you be able to buy for the money you think it is worth? Your market, is someone who specifically wants a mint 86 coupe, and doesn't mind yellow. Wild guess, $12k, +or- 33%.
