I have been going back and forth for a while now if i want to sell my vette or not. i even listed it here a while ago. Anyways i come to the decision that it is always for sale if the price is right.. LOL

What is a good "asking price" and a actual selling price for a '85 with 111k miles. Basically all stock except for the muffler eliminators and newer rims and tires(less then 2k on them) and a kenwood stereo. Runs strong, i drive it about 50-200 miles a week i guess. Honestly only thing wrong other then a few fluid drips is it has "steering morning sickness" which goes away after i turn out of the garage, and the hood release cables broke, (have new ones just havent installed them yet, but i can still open the hood)

thanks for the advise

Nice Vette! I'd start around $6k in or around and see what happens. Why are you selling it shall I ask?

No real reason, i want other "toys" and no room in garage. That is the main factor really. I was thinking 6500 and if i am offered 5500 i would be happy. Thanks for the reply!

I can't agree with you more. Whatever you choose you can't lose.

$5-6K would be about right. Good luck selling the car.
