Default 93 corvette value

I've got a 93 6speed vette base model. I'm thinking about selling. The milage is higher at 175k, however I'd say the car is a 7 out of 10. Very clean
New rear tires way too much to list has been to the car. Has c5 z06 wheels on it. Just curious what the price point on this car would be. I know this is vague but just a general direction on price would be helpful. Thanks. Here's a quick pic.

There are numerous sites that list suggested selling prices for Corvettes (google - used corvette sites).

Although your vette is a '93, it is not a 'ruby' - 40th anniversary edition, which may attract more buyers because of the paint/interior color scheme, and badging.

There are many '93 vettes on the market that are under 100K miles..... so your 175 may only be considered if the price reflects the high
mileage. The 'used sites' will display mileage, so you will be able to compare your vette to other asking prices.

More photos will help sell your vette.... engine, interior/seats including documented replacement parts, and maintenance performed. That may be more than you wish to include, but it may be necessary.

RPO codes (original equipment) should be included. Items that need repair should be included.

I agree 6 tops. Expect closer to 5.

When I was flipping cars on Craigslist I would expect whatever I was selling to sell for 3-500 less than the lowest priced comparable model listed, and that was usually the case.

Oh and pictures make a HUGE difference on the amount of buyers you will attract. Like don't use the picture you posted.

I use to take such good pictures I would get multiple prospective buyers saying the pictures made the car look better than it was. LOL I took that as a compliment. Getting someone to show up with the intention to purchase your car is half the battle.

Thanks for the input. That's another thing I'm not looking forward to dealing with and that's the "joy riders" who don't have money and just want to burn my tires off/ crash it.

Agree with others - 5-6k is realistic.

For reference, I picked up my 96' MN6 LT4 with 97k miles for $7k out the door. It needs some paint correction, but is otherwise in fantastic shape. It was at a dealership that sat on it for a long time, trying to get $12,999 for it. I picked the right weekend to throw cash at them I guess.
