Default Advice on value of 2008 Vert with Z51

I'm looking at a 2008 Vert. Silver/Black with Z51 package,3LT and Nav. Its also has Kooks long tube headers,Vararam Intake and a 'cam package". 11500 miles on speedo. It also has Michelin Pilot tires with 6/32 seconds left? What was the stock tire on this car? What kind of retail money would you all put on this car? Wholesale?

Don't know it's worth, but it's worth less then one that still has it's powertrain warranty.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Runflat Supercar tires were stock. the powertrain warranty is I think 5/100K. the earliest it could've gone into service is 7/07 production/sale. that means, if I'm correct about the 5 part, it goes/could go out of powertr. warr. around 7/12.

when I was looking about 4/5 months ago and a car about like your listing seemed to be going for mid 30's to low 40's

So its had a set of tires with only 6/32 left in 11500 miles. I'm just trying to judge how hard its beehn used or not in 11,500 miles. Body and interior etc. is immaculate. Needs a 'kit' in drivers side seat. Left outside bolster is flat already.

With the mods and the resulting loss of warranty because of them I would guess about $5k less than the same car stock with a warranty. Being that they have already burned through the Good Years and a portion of the Michelins the car has had some hard use. The mods on this car were not done just for show they were done to use.

Way to many red flags on this car, I think I would pass on this one and look for an unmodded similar car that has not been ragged on.

Run the appraise a used car private party value on Edmunds and deduct $5k from what you get:

My guess would be around $30k. There was a 2008 convert same colors and loaded with a 12 month bumper to bumper and the remainder of the drivetrain 5/100 warranty for sale at the Chevy dealer near me a while back and they were asking $32k for it.
