I bought my 1999 T/A with 76K miles , with all the mods in my sig for $9500 . Id say that a WS6 T/A just one year older is worth at LEAST $9K if not more . Id say get it and dont look back if its in good shape .

Not sure how everyone is guessing without even knowing if it is a T/A or Formula WS6. If it is a Formula it is probably a little less even though there were very few 98 Formula WS6's. That's probably a good price for a T/A, maybe slightly less for a Formula.

95N20FORMULA, I have a black 2001 WS6 6spd with 60k miles, but its in El Paso Texas. I was looking to get $11,000 or so out of it. I bought a CTS-V and really don't need two cars.

Il tell you what I have a 98 and I cant complain at all about it. I have about 84,000 miles on it and well i changed the oil about 1200 miles ago and it has seen 6-7 track pass's along with multiple street runs and it has not burned a DROP of oil as it never has since ive had it. Mine runs great but I think its a little slow for the mods it has and the MPH seems to be low compared to the newer cars but I cant complain about it as my motor seems VERY healthy for the miles

It's worth what you're willing to pay for it.
