Default Possibly selling my baby.

I may have to sell my baby. She's a 96' Polo Green LT4. I don't want to sell her but I have orders to Sasebo, Japan after I graduate college. I want to know if ya'll think it is a good price and if I will have any luck.

I would like to get 18K for it. It has 64,400 mile and has some minor stuff done to it. It comes with a Hypertech programmer, K&N filter and open box, Autovation pedals, throttle body coolant bypass, and some minor interior touches. I am only the third owner. It is in good condition with normal wear. I have lots of pictures.

Just let me know what you think please. I really don't want to let her go considering I have been waiting for this my whole life but I have no choice. Let me know what you think. I will probalby let it go in late November or December. Still debating. Thanks for the comments.

Post this in the for sale forum. That's where those wanting to buy would be looking.

I say keep it if you possibly can. That way you'll have something to look forward to when you come back home!!! If you don't have to sell it for $$ reasons, maybe there is someone who can store it for you. Maybe even a forum member. And thank you for serving our country! :seeya

Why sell it? I know that you can have a Vette there on Gov't orders...there are a couple of guys on this site that had their Vetter there.

The biggest reason I am selling it is for money reasons. It make more sense to put money that I would be spending on a payment and putting it into a CD or other account. Also 0 insurance, there would be a small amount even if I stored it. Last, when overseas I can purchase another corvette, at the end of my tour, for practically factory cost.

Thanks for the input. I'm going to Sasebo, Japan on an LPD. Having a vette over there just doesn't make good money sense. Thanks again for the input, and thank you for the support. I'm looking forward to Japan.

Hey, be kind to us old folks! At our age with the false teeth, hearing aids, Viagra and such we are lucky the state still gives us a driver's license! By the way. Sellin the LT4 will make some Corvette enthusiast very very happy and it would be cool to get a good buy on a C6 when you come back. Thanks for your service! :flag

No thank you for your service, which I assume was in the Army. I can't wait to get to Japan and start stuff on my ship. Now I just have a couple of weeks of school left. I wish I didn't have to let the LT4 go but it is just better. I hope I find a buyer that is worthy of the car, if I was.

Thanks for the input.
