Default What do you think of what I paid for my car?

Just wondering what you all think, honestly, of what I paid for my car:

2000 Camaro Z28 (bright red) M6
Corvette Z06 wheels (in chrome) with brand new BFG KDW's
Procharger P-1SC on 6 lbs. Tuned on 8lbs at 460hp/415 ft lbs tq.
255 LPH Walbro fuel pump
29K miles when I bought it
dark leather interior
exterior in great condition, some minimal rock chips, one small scratch

I paid 17.5K for it. Do you think I got ripped off? I think I might have been (not that I care.. I love the car) Or was that a fair price? Or was it even a bargain?

I figure the car, in stock trim, would go for maybe 13K? Plus the Procharger, wheels, tires, adds some.

But what do you think? I'd like an honest opinion please.

The car is probably worth about $11K in stock form. If you feel the additional mods were worth $6.5K then i'd say you did pretty well.

You figure the car is only worth 11K or so in stock trim? If it had more miles I'd agree, but 29K was nice.

Regardless, the most important part is that I'm happy... I am for the most part, except I'm having a terribly hard time deciding what to do next

Yup, i'd say it's worth about $11K in stock trim.
