I live in Oklahoma and have the line on a '01 Z06 locally, I have seen the car, rate it a 8.5-9/10, nice, not pampered. Torch red, mod interior, bone stock, only one small flaw electronically, easy fix. The unit was placed on ebay, starting at $24K, for 5 days and he did not get a bid--that kinda frightened me. This would be my first and really like the car. Is there something I'm missing on this model that others know that make it less than desireable? He's asking $27K. If you have an opinion, let me know. I would appreciate it.

Mileage will drive some price difference, but a Good to Excellent conditon '01 Z06 with 70K in MI is worth about $23-24K.
You can add about $1k for every 15K miles less than that

01 Z06 40K for $27K seems slightly above average but not much. IMO.

I'd say, if you really like it and want it, its only Money. Life's short, take what you want and leave the rest behind.
