Default Help me price my car!

Hey guys, I was thinking about selling the car but I'm not quite sure about the pricing. Was hoping yall could figure that part out for me. Details are as follows:

1996 Trans Am
-Arctic White w/ T-Tops
-206,000 miles
-Factory(far as I can tell) LT1 w/ 4l60e, 2.73 gears
-Charcoal Leather Interior in pretty good shape
-Non-Monsoon 10 speaker sound system

The Good
-New Opti, plugs, wires
-New Fuel Pump
-New Water Pump
-New balljoints, bushings, etc
-New Tires (Firehawk Indy 500 Wide Ovals)
-Religiously changed Mobil 1 synth oil and trans fluid

The Bad
-Minor oil leak
-Ticking noise presumed to be a lifter
-Fog lights aren't factory and don't work.

The Ugly
-Minor paint chips here and there with a line where someone keyed it while the previous owner had it
-Needs new headliner
-The standard f-body dash crack


Mods
-TCI SF 3400 stall w/ Transgo shift kit
-K&N intake
-Mallory 255 fuel pump
-SLP Bilsteins
-LS1 alum. driveshaft
-UMI tunnel mount torque arm
-BMR LCAs w/ relocation brackets
-Unknown brand panhard bar
-LS1 front brake upgrade
-SJM ABS delete w/ linelock, stainless brake lines
-Hooker Headers (not installed yet)


Car runs, drives, and shifts well. I was thinking between 3000 and 3500. Any and all input is appreciated, save "LT1 sux" comments. Thanks

2500-3000 sounds resonable but pics needed

I gave $1700 for my 93 formula M6 with 126K on it and a few problems. I know a guy selling a 95 TA auto with 150K for $2100. I would say 2-3K would be reasonable.

Some people are still getting or sitting on their tax $. I'd start it at 3,500 and go from there. With that many miles it's bout time for a rebuild.

That's exactly why I'm thinking about selling now. Instead of sinking a bunch of money into the motor to get it the way I want, I figured I'd upgrade instead. Still not 100% sure, but if I can find someone to buy it at a good price I'll prob take it

Having a car payment will suck, but for the right amount down you can pick up a c5Z for under $400 a month, with SUPER LOW miles. Pick up the vette!!
