I bought my 05 M6 with 31k miles, torrid red on red, M6 in 2008 for considerably less then that, clean history and everything just needed tires soon.

But idk it is black....

I paid 14,000 for my 05 back in 08, that was from a dealer, GTOs get really low trade ins' i found out from working at one so armed with that knowledge i gave an offer just above trade in on a bunch of GTOs and the red one was the best deal.

If i didnt have to buy one locally i would look around california and arizona, makes my 05 look like i overpaid and a friend actually went to arizona to pick up his GTO lol

Not a horrible deal, but not great either....it is what you want to pay for it.

Check Craigslist and autotrader.

And the dealer originally wanted 19 for my 05, then they went down to 16.8 soon as they knew i was serious. Then it only took like 20 min in that one visit to get down to 14, and i know they still made money off me lol

My 06 i was in a hurry to get and paid almost 18 grand for in early 2009. Had a year of warranty left and 21k miles, looking back i wish i wasnt so impatient or more willing to travel as their were many way better deals at the time.


Also if you buy them salvage and fix them yourself they come out funny cheap, but i know a lot of people dont want crashed cars.

Not a bad price, but not a good one either. I've seen high mileage ones go for around 11k and low mileage 13-15k. If you find something you like, deal a little and pay what you think is fair. Good luck!

Speaking of grey ones there was one in chicago from a dealer, an 05 with 111k miles, m6, clean history and one owner for 8 grand, it was up for sale for a while so im guessing it was gotten for less then that even.

I've found a couple..I think some guys got lucky on their prices..Its all about timing also.If they only had the car for a week or 2,they won't move much. I think 16k is pretty fair with 37k miles on it.. It has aftermarket exhaust,an intake and a K&N air filter.. Aftermarket black wheels also,tinted windows..All mods I would have had to pay for if it was stock..I figure if I got it for $14,then had to put all that stuff on it..That's more than 2k for sure..

just depends on his mods and if they are worth the money to you, my car might be going up for sale around that price here pretty soon, but im a little lower miles and around 500 hp turboed, and i dont think thats too high for my car, but im sure others would say im wrong, but if its just a few mods yeah i think thats a little spendy

Patience! I waited 6 months to find the one I wanted for the price that I wanted to pay, unless you don't have anything else to drive. I also opened my search range to 500 miles. Don't settle, get the color you want with miles you can live with. After looking long enough you will know a good deal and a junk car when you see it. As far as mods it's up to you. Personaly I wanted something stock that probably wasn't beat on. Check car fax, no lease cars either. Thats just me. Mods cost money and I want them but have to wait to be able to afford them! Good luck dude.

thank you, nope a4, i agree with roman, patience is key, youll come across a good deal, and when you do ****** it up, no need to be in a hurry unless you dont have another car, i know when i go vette shopping ill take a lot of time even though i know its hard when you have finally decided on what kind of car you want
