ZO6 advice
I found a electron blue 2002 Z for sale at the local corvette dealer. It has 91k miles and theyre asking about $15k for it. It has borla exhaust, aftermarket stereo, and some aftermarket interior accents. Id be trading my '99 coupe, with 123k on it and they offered my $7k for it. Just wondering if its a good deal or if I should pass on it. Thanks.

$8000 more for a 3 year newer car that's a Z and 20K less miles. Seems reasonable to me. You could probably do a little better on your car selling it privately, but that is a big hassle .

Actually that's 32k less miles than your coupe.
If you've checked it out and everything looks and sounds good, go back with your car, title, and 7k cash.
They will make up the difference when they sell your car.

If you could get them down to a $7K difference and everything checks out, that would be a decent deal.
