realistically, it's closer to $30k, I wouldn't pay more than $25k and the problem is that a car shouldn't sit for 10 years undriven unless it's properly stored (which they aren't 9 times out of 10)

don't bother unless you're looking for a trailer queen... it's not worth it...imho....

yeah i'd say 30K max. sure its low mileage but that car will need more TLC than an 03 thats been driven and maintained on the regular with 100,000kms on it.

I agree around $30,000.

Car was probably $70,000 or more new and 500 kms is not even broken in. talk about taking a huge loss. I will never understand why people do this for the life of me, but it works great for you. Fluids will likely all need to be changed though.

I'd have a hard time paying more than 25k. Last year I got an 04vert in mint condition for less than 20k, the ann edition is nice but still a C-5 . But if you like it make an offer.

Well 28 is not enough but I won't lose any sleep over it. I am not sure how he stored it or the gas used and the rest of the concerns. It was not close enough to his dream price he would even talk to me.

Is that what you offered, what was his reaction, I think that was decent start.
If it was a vert it may be worth a little more .

I wouldn't worry about his price as there are lots of great C5's out there and with it being the end of the C6 run prices are going to slide more. As others have stated I would be concerned over how it was stored as the car is 10 yrs old. I am really restraining myself from buying a C6 right now - too much to get done around the house this summer. If I picked up a C6 my wife and I would hit the road for July and Aug.
