Default Intake Question

Well this isn't really asking how much a vehicle is worth so I figure I can get away with it in here. Alright so I want to buy my buddies ls6 intake off of his 2001 t/a ws6. He also has an 85 mm throttle body that he spent $320 on. I'm gonna get that from him also. He does not know how much to ask for so he asked me to tell him what I think is fair and we will go from there. How much do guys think I should pay for this stuff?

How much of a friend is he? If he is a great friend I would say 420 in all honesty. He still makes money and you get his hand me down parts. I think you both still win.

You call $200 a good deal... I just bought one in El Paso texas for $120 a couple of weeks ago! Guy pulled it off of an 02 vette and was upgrading to a fast 92/92. He wanted $100 and had someone picking it up the next morning and I offered him $120 and he said " come pick it up right now". Sooooo. I drove my *** straight over there and bough it!



edit: I'd say $300... low ball him.. lol! but since he's your buddy give him 5bills for it.
