Default Pricing help please...

Hello all,

New member here. I am looking at an Electron Blue 02 ZO6 with 31,700 miles on it. It is in super condition, and has brand new (correct) tires on it. What do you think would be a realistic price to pay? They are asking $34k for it. That seems a likttle steep to me. It's from a used Vette dealer.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hate to say it...but it sounds high to me to. I would continue looking and find one with lower miles and mint condition for that money. If I had to make an offer it would be 29 or 30k at most.

If it had have the miles on it, sure. If you shopped harder maybe get an '03. I know Electron Blue is cool! But.............

Good Luck and hope you find the best vette yet.

Quoting from this morning's Denver newspaper I see a 2004 Z06, 2400 miles @ $39,000 (black on black like mine). So I agree with the previous post that you can do better.

You should be able to find an '02 with half those miles for that price right now.

Way too much for that car. No because of the year....Its about 3 times as many miles as you'd like it to have for $34K A 31000 mile 02 should bring more that $29000 TOPS!
Good Luck, and keep looking brother, there are a lot of good deal out there right now.....just look around.

It depends on where you live, but you should be able to pick up a similar Z06 for around $32,000. Here in Wisconsin, you would be paying around $32-$34 grand.

Interesting enough, I bought my 2002 EB Z06 about 2 months ago with 27,000 miles on her for 29k even. As someone stated earlier though WHERE you live truely DOES effect the price your going to pay. Good luck with your search!! Pop.
