Value question 02 Z06.
I have an 02 z06 EB 89k miles.
dealer has an 02 z06 77k miles black. dealer car has perfect paint, custom stereo, good tires.
Is the dealer car worth 4,250 more?

I think paint condition is worth some extra coin.. as is wear an tear for 20k miles.. the color might be worth something to you also.. depending on how much you like washing cars...
now.. is that worth the extra +4k? its really a value judgment for ya.. my primary concern would be how the previous car was treated/maintained.. thats also an unknown isnt it..

Sure you want to know the answer? Pretty sure you won't like it. Sorry, just the facts according to KBB's version anyway.
KBB value for your car, 02 Z06 90k miles
Private sale Fair Condition: $14315
Retail sale: $19865 (excellent condition)
Dealers Car: 02 Z06 77k
Private sale Fair: $17690; Good: $18740
Retail sale: 21,790
Apples to apples (Fair vs Fair) your car versus the deal car is at least ~ 3k different just b/c of the difference in miles. If it's in better condition there's the other grand.

I was actually trying to justify it. I kinda want the dealers car. I figured the lower miles car better paint was worth 2k. The custom stereo 1k. The better tires are 800$. I want a c6 z06 but might get this to tide me over. Then keep it when i get the c6.

I was just going to reply and say that. It doesnt make much sense to jump into the same exact car, let alone with high mileage (77), especially for the price.

Here's the problem with KBB. My car, same year, 12k miles, valued at
$24,090 by KBB
It has 65k miles less than a car retailing at $21790.00
My feeling, just keep your car and maybe spend the money for a professional detail.

Sometime a man's got to do what a man's got to do. If another Z turns you on and it's only a few bucks why not go for it. For me if I found another Z with less miles there's no way I'm trading my car, but that's me. If your current Z isn't doing it for ya might as well try another.

No my car is sweet. Its just not as mint asthetically as the dealers car. Mine actualy feels faster. I have new factory plugs/wires in my car. The dealer car has better paint, but would need lowering/alignment, probably plugs wires.
