I have been following prices pretty close last three months. Here is my two cents. A4's and M6's sell for about the same price. Convertables and Z06's bring about 3K more than a coupe. FRC's sell for around 1K more than a coupe. Low milage cars are the only C5s that sell for PP or retail book everything else seems to be going for trade in or wholesale at best. It is in general a buyers market right now. I have sold two C5s in the last two years. Best price I could get on the last 03 coupe 16K miles, excellent condition, was 30K. And there are better deals than that right now on the C5 for sale section. I think if someone is willing to set on the car and wait for the right buyer he could get a good price but most people when they get ready to sell are in a hurry.

Because it isn't true that's why?

Someone call GM too, no one wants autos.

Shurite, I agree with your analysis. I am a new member and have seen your posts frequently. Having seen your avatar I have to ask what Korean styles do you train in? I'm 4th black ITF TaeKwondo, black in Hapkido and 20 years of mixed martial arts and self defense. We share two loves apparently.

If it has an extended warranty, as indicated, that can add quite a bit, depending on term & mileage limits.

Edit - as an example, I just put a 12k -12 mo GMPP $0 deductible on my '02 coupe, and dealer cost was about $425.
