C6s are in the teens if you look hard enough-the C5 guy will have a rude awakening
No its not roached out either its here in LA and pretty sharp

Ruby seller...if you need to sell it grab the offer never know how long til you get another

Been trying to sell an old A body.....got an offer of 30 (was asking over 40_ turned it down as I got a lot of interest)
6 mos later nothing over 15k.....lots of good deals on toys, see if he will come up an extra 500-1000 let him think he beat you up and move on.

Yeah I can and not because I have some money to toss around, it's because of the values/depreciation and that makes me glad to love C4s.
Why? If anything, I'd be more impressed with what money they are ACTUALLY GETTING and not what your wishful thinking at the time of the ad price is.

Last year I bought a 92 convertible auto with 17825 miles one owner garage kept never rained on perfect for 12500. New tires drove it 1140 miles home. Would do again in a heartbeat

Ill pay for the right car but in general no..not much for a C4. They dont bring squat out here Diz
They arent classic collectibles no mater how few of xx color etc were made. MAybe if its someones wet dream they will pay big $....

Haveno interest in any new car....so if you have 20-30k wrapped up in a C4 but its as new...whats the difference? Worth it.

Default It depends

I agree that most C4 vettes look like crap. Mine is not one of them. My 86 has 62,000 miles is garaged and covered so it is in great shape.

5 years ago I paid $11,800 for a 1995 base coupe 6-speed car with 52,000 miles in very good condition. Some say I paid too much, but it came with a bunch of extras and very good documentation. I got the exact car that I want and I am very happy, it's a real joy to drive.

man, that makes me sick.
drove my grandpa’s 72 pontiac lemans (a body) that was in mint shape when i was in high school (1993) at a time when the other kids drove 4 cylinder taurus, 95 hp mustang and cavalier

stepdad sold it for $2800 (in 1995) bc he ‘didnt have enough room in the garage to store it ‘ when i went to college

Don't forget the ZR-1s, they get a bit more money.

Main reason C4's are cheap is there were many, many produced. My brain wants to say the most produced of any other generation, not 100% sure as the brain is older than the C4s.

Me, I like them cheap because it saved me money for my dream car!

This is true EXCEPT when it involves a ZR1. I would pay good money for a nice ZR1 but that’s just me I guess.

I paid 10,300 for my 95 with 40,000 miles. I think it was a fair price. Excellent car from Arizona. My 94 is from there also and it has 60,000 on it and I only gave the guy 8,000 cash. I love them both. I think I did alright.
