Tell me what you guys think??

I know you guys will be honest. I have not seen it in person as I am in South FL, The car is in Atlanta Georgia. Seems pretty clean. What do you think is a good price with the mileage? |
Price for the miles doesn't seem that bad. But it is a really high starting point for miles. Ask yourself how many miles you'll put on it.
|
Based on the paint quality, interior quality, and the upkeep on the right maintenance listed that is a great buy. Looks real clean and taken care of. A lot of car for $15k.
|
It looks like a great driver quality zr with the needed work done. That said, I’d put it at $12k. If they have receipts for all the work and the second top is mint add another 1-2k.

I would be comfortable buying it based solely on the meticulous care that went into edging the walks. True story.

The miles wouldn't bother me. That LT5 still has more life in it than any of us will ever use. LOTS of performance and enjoyment for the bucks!! Cheers, |
The car will easily go 200,000 miles,not a bad price.

Negotiate the price down a little if you can.
I'd want to see pics of under the hood and under the car, and I'd insist on hearing it run and if possible given a drive by the owner. If under the hood is a coifed at his yard, it's a no brainer. 'Crabs |

post in your regional section or here we have members worldwide who can look at it for you if need be.
They almost never look the same in person....Better to pay 15k or close if its had the right work done, stuff people skip (like suspension)..vs a 90k mi car for less $ thats detailed to the hilt & has a list of things people let go. Condition>odometer reading every time |

Update: I finally talked to the guy, He is a 78 year old retired Air Force pilot. He said he has owned the car since 2015 has put only 2300 miles since his 2015 purchase of the car from his college friend who was the original owner and an enthusiast that has several vettes. He seems pretty firm on his price. He says he has receipts for all the work he has done and he has spent about 10k since 2015 and maintenance and appearance such as newly wrapped steering wheel and the other things listed in the ad. Price wise what do you guys think? I would feel great paying 13,500-14k max. But I do understand you can get cheaper with a lot of work needed that has been already done to this one. Will be headed up there this weekend or Monday to see the car. Fly in and hopefully drive back.

Go for it before it is gone!

Good price for covid era private sales. I don’t think the prices are going south anymore, even on the higher mileage ones. They’re antiques now and if the rumors about DOHC coming in the C8 Z06 are true, that could bump prices on the “OG” DOHC ZR-1s. You never know when the ripple effect on car values will happen or what causes it.
Sounds crazy, but there was a time you could pick up a used NSX in the 30s (saw one for 28k in 2002), Testarossa in the high 40s low 50s and Gen 2 Viper GTS coupes in the high 30s. That pricing is never coming back. It seems like there’s been an explosion of articles/videos popping up about the C4 ZR-1 in the last few years. It’s getting a second look from a new wave of enthusiasts. If I had to guess, sports cars like the previously mentioned NSX, Testarossa and Viper have moved into the stratosphere of used car pricing. With that happening, it excludes a lot of enthusiasts from the ownership opportunity. So what else is out there that can get me close to the fun I would’ve had in those other exotics that I can actually buy? I think cars like the ZR-1 fill that gap pretty well. Long story short, get one while you can at a price like that, given our current used sports car market. |
Well as the saying goes.."You snooze you loose" I was trying to get it for 13,500 max he sold it full price today..Oh well good for him, the search continues..

There's a nice looking red/red 94 with higher miles priced in the mid teens that appears to be available. Check conesare2seconds posts on this thread, post #9 has a link to pics

A few years ago you probably could’ve got it for 11. Those days are gone. No worries, there are others out there. Any Z that’s 30+ years old priced in the teens, and even 20s is going to need some work to make dependable. When I say dependable, for me that means it can drive anywhere in the continental US and back home to where you live, worry free and at any moment. |

I am glad the seller held out for their asking price. Nothing worse than trying to get low balled on a perfectly good car. Sports cars usually sell for a premium in the warm weather months. Good luck! |
