Default Going rate for supercharged 04 auto GTO?

Friend works at a dealer. Have a chance to get a yellow 80k mile gto. Don't know what brand supercharger but it sits on top of the engine. Runs good but is throwing a code for knock sensor(s). It's a little rough around the edges.tranny shifts solid, but the Shifter pulls right off. But overall I'd give it a 6.5 7/10. I could get it for 10k plus tax and bs. Is it worth it to flip?

I'd avoid it. It sounds like it's had a hard life and these cars are not cheap to fix.

It's probably not as bad as I make it out I'm just a picky bastard. The interior is all good except the shifter. He actually sold it to a guy for 14k but the loan didn't go thru. Wondering what ppl would pay for this from an individual.

I would have to see it in pictures, but like svede said... These things are expensive to fix... Granted it has a supercharger, but at the same time it has 80k on the clock... Ticking time bomb IMO...

If I was looking for a GTO it would be a totally stock car. Modded cars for the most part would be worth less than a stock one to me. People don't put on superchargers to go to church every Sunday.

What Svede said! The little fella from Michigan speaks the truth (as usual)

With the low resale prices of these cars, they have been attracting the WRONG types of people for almost 3 years now. Lots of folks with no mechanical or automotive comprehension are buying them and modding them, poorly. The results are a lot of ragged out Goats like this sitting on used car lots.

Makes me sad...

Seems pretty conclusive lol. Ya ill just let this one go. If it was in better condition and an LS2 I'd jump on it...but then again it wouldn't make it to my friends dealer, he gets all the "last chance" cars before they get sent to auction.

Seems pretty good deal for a sc goat. I ushally see the 04 gto for about 8500+ and it having a sc I'm sure that's well over 10+
