Question 2004 C5 Price?

What do you think a black/black 6 speed coupe would bring in a private sale?

26,500 miles
dual roof - hard and clear top
clutch feels great
tires are ok
leather/interior is nearly perfect, no rips/tears
pretty much fully loaded:
memory seating
HUD
No stains
polished wheels/no curb rash
12 disc changer/bose premium sound
active handling (competitive/touring mode)
Bone stock, I do have a K&N for it though - it hasn't been installed yet.

Basically a solid 8.5/9 out of 10 in all area, except tires which are probably 5-6/10.

Just curious what you think it might bring.

Thanks.

You selling or buying? I'd say 30-35k.

Selling, don't really want to or have to, but might be moving/buying new house which it would certainly not help to have the additional debt. Any other opinions?

I agree, I was thinking maybe somewhere between $28-$29k?

Probably not even that. I just picked up a 2002 Z06 with 28,000 miles for 29K. From reading some people's posts, they have found Z06's in similar condition for as low as 26-27K.

I think you'd be lucky to pull down 25K for yours. Nothing wrong with pricing it higher to see what happens. You can always lower the price if it doesn't sell.

How much would a 99 C5 coupe with 30k miles go for? Some people think just cause it has low miles it can still go for $29k

How would a 99 C5 coupe with 30k miles go for $29k when I don't even think I can get $29k for a FULLY-loaded '04 C5 coupe with 27k miles..
