I am so sorry for your Wife and her illness, you will return but as the previous opst says in this circumstance "it is just a car." May she get well and you both return to the Forum. Give her our blessing.

Hopefully I can sell it fast so I need some advice on what would be a good price to sell:

2006 Black/Cashmere, 3LT, AT6, Z51, NAV, XM, ONSTAR, POLISHED WHLS, TINT, Z06 Spoiler with 6400 miles... with over 2 years left on the warranty

Thanks!

Best of luck to you. Very sorry to hear about the health issues. You are in my thoughts and prayers with hopes that she gets better soon. It seems that yell03 has you covered with the value issues so I'll just leave you with my best wishes.

Sorry to hear it. You will be in my prayers as well.

As for selling the car how fast do you want to sell it? 40 and it will be gone quick. 45 and it will probably sell but may take some time.

Sorry about your wife. I hope she has a quick recovery. Stay on the forum..u don't need a vette to be here. Hopefully you'll be able to step back into one in the not too distant future. Best wishes to you and your wife!

Your health can slip from you so quickly. You are doing the right thing by making her your only priority. God bless both of you!

Had to sell my big block C3 back in 1990. It was a little while before I was able to get another vette. But when your priorities are straight as in your case you will be blessed.

You are doing the right thing. You can always replace the Vette. But your wifes health is priceless. Prayers to both of you.
