Default should i sell it? 98 ss 43k tr224 13k?

ive had my car listed for a minute on here and craigslist for 14k. someone offered me 13k. im not positive on what i want to do. im only 18 so there will be many a car in my future. so should i keep my car or sell it for a house? is this a good deal for me or him? its a 1998 red ss m6 with 43500, has tr 224/224 112*, 4.11 gears w/ aluminum diff cover, slp exhaust and lt's, ftra, underdrive pulleys, brand new tires with like a few thousand miles on them, newer clutch with 5k on it, and a few other things.only has a few flaws, like 10 yr old paint, a little dings and chips here and there, and no antenna (im a dumb ***), and will prolly need power window motor. otherwise its perfect mechanically and is still a gorgeous car. cared for very well and garaged most its life, up till i got it a year ago. i thought about getting either a house, or just living with the folks while i go to school and getting a trans am or ctsv. sorry for the long post but any input would be appreciated.
thanks, alex.

We are both in the same position. Gas for my car is killing me so what is the point of keeping something you can no longer drive?

Exactly what I was thinking. I hope I'm lucky enough to get $14K for my 02 when it comes time to sell it next week.

I would for 13k. But then again I'd keep it and get a cheap commuter or a bike. Once you sell that car you are going to regret it. Trust me I've been there as I'm sure others have as well
