If you want to work out a monthly payment plan I could go for that! But I'm sure you'd rather not.

Just put a twin-screw supercharger on your GT and you have the ultimate sleeper car!

You aren't going to catch anyone sleeping in this car. I don't know what you've done to your cobras, but I'm sure it would take the 96 and the 03 would be a good race. (Talking with the 05 being stock)

IMO, if you go through what you've proposed, you'll get your butt handed to you minus its virginity.
George, you're killing me here.

I've been thinking about it....wife says it's OK, so $648 is my last offer......Think about it......Really, it may never come around again..... B)
Is that US or Canadian $?

Seriously, though, I hope a fellow member in your area ponies up (sorrrry) with a fair offer. You'll take a big hit trading it, and a car like yours may attract flakes and trolls if you try to sell it yourself.

How the heck can you drive a car 340 miles and decide you dont want it any more? Why dont you give it more time.

Now my offer (sorry honey) the wife lol.

You're right about my '96 Grantsdale! I couldn't even keep up with an '03 Mach1. He ran off and left me. We'll have to wait and see with my'03. I see '05's all the time now but they're all 6 cylinders. Still haven't seen a GT.

Where are you located? I might be interested, but I'll tell you right now that you are looking at losing a few thousand.

You will get nothing close to MSRP for the vehicle once it has been bought off a dealer lot.

And for me, considering that I have a Z plan, I can get the same vehicle for $25K with no miles, so I probably wouldn't offer more than about $22 if the car were perfect. Let me know.

I haven't thought about it.

Guess it depends on offers.

Essentially you have what I was planning on ordering in the spring.

Although I am in no hurry, it is worth considering...

By no means have i ever intended this to be a sale ad.

I was looking for advice on a dollar value i could use to sell my vehicle. (never sold one outright before)


Moderators: If this is considered a sale ad, please delete

My guess would be the car lost about 15% of MSRP when you drove it off the lot. Therefore it would bring about $22,900 ($27,000 X .85). That is where I would start advertising. I would use ads in the auto trader and you local paper, it may take a long time to sell as buyers will still go to a dealer first for such a "new" car. Also you cannot offer any financing like a dealer can.

Used 2003 350z's are still commanding 85% of their value with upwards of 30k on them. I don't see why you couldn't get closer to what you paid.
