Default What’s Vette worth? Please help, Cancer patient.

I have a 2006 Corvette Convertible 45k Miles. velocity Yellow with Black Leather. Automatic car with paddle shifters and every available option for the year. I’ve had some mods done: AA Supercharger, Kooks Header, X Pipe, 2 Bar Map Sensor, Matte Black Wrap (easily removable, has kept Paint perfect) Upgraded Nav Unit to $800 Kenwood, $8000 custom Forgiato Racing wheels that are lighter than stock. Car made 597RWHP on a safe tune. I have all the stock items as well, the rims/tires and the original head unit. I had a dealer try and steal it. I’m just not sure what to price it at? Very clean, no wrecks, no tears in leather, not even a door ding. Never tracked or abused. Any help would be appreciated. I’m new, not sure how to post pics, but a beautiful, unique Vette, that draws a lot of attention!

I had a 2006 base C6 with an ECS supercharger, Forged internals, RPM transmission and a lot of other supporting mods. I sold it in late 2012 for 32000. One very similar to yours sold here on the forum for 26000 earlier this year. That one sold in a day, so that should tell you it was priced very well. I would think to the right buyer yours may be worth around 28-30k?? Asking what something is worth can be a very difficult question to answer. You'll absolutely get the "mods don't add value" person to respond to this, but to the right person they do. However; I think you'll take the biggest hit on those $8000 rims, although very cool it will be hard to get much return on those.

It says you are a cancer patient. I know with that diagnosis comes a lot of thinking all at once. Take time to let things slow down before deciding anything and most importantly take care of yourself first. Good luck!

Have you considered selling the wheels, I would think you could recover more money that way and make it easier to sell the car

I’m not that concerned with the wheels. They make the car stand out very nicely. I’d just like to get 28000 and call it a day

I was going to say $30,000 and negotiate down from there. If you want $28,000 and ask $28,000 everyone is going to offer you $26,000.00 So bid yourself in some wiggle room. Good luck with the sale, seems to be a really nice car.
