What's my TT c6 worth??
Hello everyone
Ok so I am posting here to see what my mildly built twin turbo c6 is worth I'm in the process of building my car but I may need to sell it. I have been trying to sell off all the parts but not having any luck, now I'm thinking of just finishing the build and see if I can sell all as a hole! Now for details Victory Red 2007 Z51 m6, 32,000 miles, 3LT with out the nav, on star and integrated phone *Car is very ckean and no dents, never smoked in or seen rain, always garage kept MODS Wide booty rear w/ gloss black GS wheels May include but not likely, brand new bkack Weld RTS rear 17x11 wheels with m&h tires, Alumastars in the front Built diff with 4.10's and C5z halfshafts DTE trans brace Monster stage 3 clutch MGW shifter and race knob Upp tt kit Vengeance Racing tt cam AEM tru boost controller AEM wideband and fuel pressure gauge Triple gauge pod Alky control meth kit and AIS stealth tank in the rear TT kit and manifolds are VHT Painted and DEI wrapped FAST 57# injectors Kenne bell boost a pump and racetronix harness Ls9 gaskets ARP head studs, cam bokts and header studs C7R timing chain Meziere electric water pump Holley valve covers Optima yellow top battery Victor Jr and Aarons sheet metal elbow Carbon Creations carbon fiber cowl hood with vents (to fit vic jr set up) C6Z full factory 3" exhaust Yella terra rockers What do you think I could get for this car, or what you would you think be a reasonable asking price to move it fast Thanks again Frankie |

If you want to sell the car for it's actual retail value, put it back to stock and sell it that way.Sell the parts separately.You will shoot yourself in the foot trying to sell a "lightly" modded twin turbo car.I laughed at that by the way, lol.No offense but "lightly modded" and twin turbo don't belong in the same sentence. MODS like you are doing might bring 15-25 cents on the dollar in return when you sell. Not really worth your time or effort if all you're gonna do is sell it.Ask me how I know!! lol. You are limiting yourself to a very slim market out there. Those who would normally look at your vette in stock form won't even give it a second thought with tt's on there. So what's it worth??Take the value of your car in stock form in your area and go from there....might be worth less with your mods on there...certainly isn't going to increase real world resale value unless you find that needle in the haystack you're building who wants what you're building.:thumbs:

Agree. Like Bikes One person's idea of what is a great build is anothers idea of silly.
Many won't buy a car that may have been tracked or is built for a track. But there are a few who will be looking for YOUR car. You have to find them. I found AutoTrader to be my best place to sell a car. Have not had to trade in years, Start out with Edmund's good private party and add from there. Every car has a buyer, |
I see what your saying but I have tried to sell these parts for a while now, I'll start a thread and will have zero interest, then I'll take it off the boards and buy a few parts to complete the build and again something will come up and will have to stop or slow the build, so after this last time I just figured to sell everything, I have some threads open for the parts but again no interest ,so I was thinking just go ahead with the build and sell as a hole but yes like you said I will be shooting my self in the foot and yes the mods I got are for what I like and yea not everyone has the same taste
The car blue books retail at $31k, private property $29k and trade in at $26-28k I have $16k worth of parts and most parts can sell but the big pieces are what I'm having trouble with I would be looking for a quick sale so I would price it at $26k STOCK and not sure what I would price it with all the parts but looks like selling the car stock is my best bet while still trying to sell the parts As for mildly built it's just a basic tt kit, nothing crazy nor a 1000hp build

I don't think you'd have a problem selling that hood!! If it was January/February,I'd buy it myself. :D As for the other parts,maybe some vendors would be interested in buying the turbos or something or even maybe whomever you bought it from...I've experienced that in the past.Of course they buy at wholesale...

I still may have the hood by then, so far just adding up everything i have and selling what i have even at a discount will net me way more rather than selling with all on the car, the car selling is where my profit will be so I'd try and move that faster than the parts, right now it's looking I could sell faster stock, there are a few wholesale dealerships in my town that I could sell my car to as well as online adds, the car has 31k miles, clean carfax and should sell I think
Thanks for the input

if you aren't able to sell your parts you must be doing something wrong. if your asking price is like 50-75% of new parts cost and the parts are in good condition, and you are describing things well, taking good photos, bumping daily, and using forums, craigslist etc.. your parts should sell. you should be willing to ship, too. not every part will find a local home, the car is too niche for that. I parted out my STi back to stock in a months time and I had power mods, lots of exterior and suspension, wheels and tires... gotta put in the effort to make it happen though! it's extra work but I would rather take .50-.75 cents on the dollar for my parts than .0 - .25. especially with as much invested as you have. |
I agree with others. Sell the parts separately. I am always looking to upgrade and would be interested to see your list. If you have the base fenders, pull the WB and sell as well.

Thanks guys and yes I agree also Lol
Part out threads have begun, check my profile for the threads |

I agree with most. If it's not selling now, modding it further will not cause it to sell any better.
Most peeps I've noticed whose in the market to buy a C6 look for factory cars. I would think your wide body mod would be HIGHLY desirable. Remove all but headers and intake. Those are usually viewed as a plus to some, drawback to few. GLWS. |
