Default Might sell the ws6..

Money problems are choking me and lately it has been real hard to just do the general keep up. I am thinking about just going down to a cheapo dealer and getting a 5,000 dollar honda to drive around. As it stands I still owe 11,000 so I have to sell it for at least that, I am thinking about putting it on autotrader like I did with my camaro. I hear people in oklahoma are desperate for ls1s lol.
What do you guys think?

It's a 99 with 78,000 miles on it... as far as I know it's fully loaded. Power seats,windows,locks,a/c,t-tops,cruise control all of that stuff. It does have an aftermarket stereo/speakers in it because the previous owner blew one of the speakers, but I still have the original stereo and speakers.
I don't know what to expect from it, I have been looking online and I can't find anyone selling one like mine around here.
Here are a few pictures.. don't mind the file names lol. It's an automatic.

Haha.

"You'll regret it. Don't do it, man."

"By the way, is it a 6-speed? I just so happened to be looking for one."

haha I'm so torn by this, I finally have a car I'm proud of that turns heads and I can't keep it. I feel like by the time I can afford a car like this that they will be so out of date and old that no one will care.

Ask yourself what better car you can buy and feel proud of for $11,000

You probably won't find too many answers to that question.

They all happen to be GM vehicles, coincidentally!

So you bought the car to get attention and to make others happy? Good luck with that. Drive something that makes you happy, dont worry about what other people think! If you need to sell your car then do it. When you have the money to get another one, get one. If you need something to impress people that you dont know and that dont really matter then get something that is in style at that time.

lol I bought the car because I've wanted one for years and they just happen to be sexy. If they didn't impress anyone no one would buy them.
I have been using mine only on my days off to save gas and to keep it from getting banged up in the parking lot. I went to a car lot today and some immigrant guy tried to tell me that trans ams aren't collectible but camaros are and that something as OLD and outdated as a 99 wouldn't be worth even 5,000 in best condition. Then he tried to sell me a super beat up shitty 2002 SOM firebird. Some people should just die.

all salesman/women = SCAMMERS every single one of them. if i were you i would try and sell it yourself.

before i bought my car i drove 120 miles from school to go and look at a white 6 speed that "shifts like new" and 2nd and 3rd were non existent (sp) and 4th would grind every other time. i asked him before i come down there if it ****** good and of coarse the answer i got was "yes" needless to say i almost kicked that guys ***. oh yea he wanted to sell me a $1000 warranty on something that was F'ed up. sorry i am ranting. thinking about it still pisses me off.

Looks pretty nice, you should be able to get in the neighborhood of 11k if you hold out for the right buyer.

Dont sell it unless you really really have to. After I sold my RC51 sportbike, I dont get any satisfaction from riding and owning any other bike anymore. Wish I can go back in time and get it back. I myself put my SS up for sale, was selling to my brother, but he recently backed out. It wont go up for sale again.

Point is if you miss it or not it, you definately will when its gone. But in the end do what you have to. Many other LSX cars out there for the future, but nothing like your first love.

dont sell, but if you do, do it on autotrader let the rest of the US have a shot of owning one, beleive me it was fucken hard to find the right WS6 for me and im sure that if you sell it, it will be the right car for someone else.
