Two owner, 2003 EB ZO6 with 6500 miles. Bone stock with GMPP Major Guard until April 2010. Asking $34,900. Is this a fair buy?
Thanks.

With that low of miles AND the warranty.........I'd say that's a fair price.........obviously you can find 1 for a bit less but you would be doing alot of searching to "fall" on a sweeter deal.

Of course if the car was Black this would be a no brainer.....

I think it may be a little high, but, I am not sure? I purchased mine two years ago and have not been watching the market lately. It is one of the best colors and with low miles in stock trim! Plus, the GMPP is a nice touch! I still think I would try to get it a little cheaper. Good luck!

It sounds like a good deal considering the miles, year and warranty, but then again it is up to you as to how you feel about the deal. Is it at a dealership? Or private owner? But also consider that it is the time of year (winter) when prices are usually at their lowest, I bought my 02 Z06 last November from a guy in Vermont, had to drive 1200 miles one way and then back with the newly aquired Z to get home to Tennessee. I waited till that time, or this time of the year to get the best deal I thought I might get, just my opinion

well it is basically $35,000 which I think for the 03 is really at the very top of the scale, even with the 6500 miles and warranty.

Many warranty's come with miles along with years..make sure you know what you've got.

I'm sure it's a beauty..

Me, personally, if I am thinking about that kind of money it would be for an 04..even with a a few more miles, maybe up to 20k or so...

IF this is the car for you and you are ok with the price , then get the car...it will be like brand new I'm sure..

That's exactly what I paid for my GMPP covered MY 03 Z with 5300 miles 4 months ago. Given the fact that it is now the middle of winter you may get it a little lower, but if you love it then go for it.

That is in the ballpark....like others say you maybe can get it a little lower with negotiating, but if you like the car and it checks out...go for it!

just keep in mind that the "WINTER" price can only be applied to a car where the seller is looking to sell his/her car NOW.

IF this is the right car for you don't let it get away over a few bucks...
Even though I prefer Black, I would not walk away from a great EB Car...they are real beauties...

If the car is absolutely perfect, I would say buy it.

Then again, if it was Red It would be worth more, LOL.

Price sounds good, remember to check service history. The warranty brings the price in line.

Thanks for all the info. I will make an offer, can't see paying more than 31 or 32K at most as I can get into an 05 or 06 with lots more bells and whistles and 400HP for the mid to high 30s.
There was a guy in Shirley MA. a while back on Auto-Trader with an 03 MY ZO6 with 20,000 miles that ended up after months of advertising going down to $26,500. Don't know if he got it or got disgusted and pulled the add.
