Good luck.
I'm curious, what did you like about the C6 over the C7? I've driven and rode in C7 cars and they are OK to me just like I think the C6 is OK.

I'm 53 and I could think of a lot more desirable woman to think about than them.
That is what I thought about Cher, who just turned 71, until I saw her up close. Best put together grandma I ever saw. OMG.

The pass side was much smaller in the 7, the star wars dash kept changing if I pushed wrong buttons on steering wheel, the car was much more difficult to enter and exit, the audio system was not easy to operate at 70 mph, rumors of valve coking on di engines, the 4-8 cyl switch.
We just enjoy the 13GS vert more. I do miss the top operation and tilt mirrors and color hud in the 7.

rkj, with respect, I disagree that those are reliable sources for THIS car.
It is a fairly rare combination of options, and extremely low miles. Both KBB and NADA values are derived from averages of "similar" but not the same vehicles. There will be very few "similar" vehicles with sold price data. The values that are given for his vehicle are unreliable, as a result.

This is a vehicle that will have limited interest because of the high price vs. that of a very nice base '14/'15. I think the vehicle "should be" worth $39K/$40K, but I doubt it will bring a dime over $36K.

Just my opine...

Realistic value or delusional "this is a rare collector vehicle" typical Corvette Forum value?

$35k if you sell it privatelyand hold out for the perfect buyer. $28-32k if you trade in.

You my friend are why us drivers/modders love the waxers. 5 year old car that's practically showroom New at a 50%+ discount.

What is your vehicle worth? Whatever someone is willing to pay.

Well that clearly lowers its value substantially. Practically a salvage vehicle now.

Value/ Price is this simply= Ask $2000 more than what you are willing to take for it. List it at that Price , if it sells at $2k below your asking price it is a good deal... quite simple.
