Default How much could this Vette be sold for?

I have a "friend" that is selling her Vette. It's an 03 Anniversary Edition Convertible Vette with 3,000 miles on it. Not a scratch or dent on it...interior is the same. Driven like a baby. M6, completely stock. Some guy offered her $38k for it but said he would sell it for $42k (dealer). Does that sound about right?

I'd be leaning more towards $38 myself. I've been pricing these cars for the past couple months. I'm sure somewhere people are getting $42 for cars like this, but to move it you're gonna need to be around $38k. Just my .02

Thanks for the info fellas. I'm not sure if the warranty has expired or not as it has been 3 years. Still though...only 3,000 miles and it really has been driven like a baby. I'll let her know.

Honestly man, You can buy a new C6 for that price around here (TX) with some of the dealer incentives, but it'd be a non-convertible though. $42 is wwaaaayyyy too high!

If it were a convertable yes.....they hold thier value the best. I would check underneath the front end for any damage before buying. People tend to bottom them out frequently which could be costly.
