Yeah, KBB for my zip says 18,500... but hey KBB is just guide... that's it. I've been trying to sell a 93 Corvette I have with 12k miles on it and people have been trying to low ball me left and right.... at like 10, 11 and 12k.... and I'm only asking 15K for it..... geez.....

Good luck with the sale, it's nice one

first of all,kelly is a book put out by dealers so they can steal your trade in,,use nada for real value ,also if your car is super low miles or is special in some way ,like over 10 years and like showroom condition,its worth more,bottom line ,its worth what someones willing to pay,like a collector car,,you cant use some stupid kelly book for a rare vechicle

true,but these are same prices i saw people 2 years ago asking for c5's, there is some type of belief that corvettes dont depreciate, eventually as c6s drop, c5s will fill the void that c4s have in the 10-15k range.

But agreed this is a nice car, maybe a touch high, but its his car and he can ask what he wants

ekim7878 -- Read this sticky at the top of the C5 for sale section.

Reprinted below -

***Apparently we need a reminder******

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so here it is....

The rules are very simple....yet some of you still cannot abide by them...I and the other Mods have been letting things slide and simply removing the posts. Apparently that isn't doing the trick so I guess what.....

8. Interference in a For Sale thread

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1118176

If you don’t like the price or item being offered in for sale thread, take it to e-mail or PMs. Better still, just move on to a thread that is offering something you like the price on.

If you post a criticism of the price or the quality of the item being offered, you will be in violation of Forum rules and subject to sanctions.

If you post your own for sale items to the for sale thread started by someone else, you also are in violation of Forum rules. Start your own thread, rather than jumping into the thread of someone else.

If your contribution to a for sale thread does not advance the sale, you are in the way.

If you spot inappropriate posts to a for sale thread, please alert a moderator.

NADA is a book put out by dealers so they can charge an arm and a leg on retail.
