I would say thats a decent price, good miles, but I would worry a lot about the spray. 150 shot sprayed a car is one thing, but on stock clutch is another. If you get it, prepare for the clutch to go soon, but I'm sure with those mods he hasn't babied it.

1999 WS6 M6
Black with Charcoal leather
150 shot NX wet
AEM UEGO Wideband
Nitrous Pressure Gauge
Fuel Pressure Gauge
SLP headers
SLP lid
ls6 airbox
3" custom exhaust
Short Shifter
and misc. extras
Black Z06 Wheels

I went to see the car and its in great shape, especially the interior... It also has 52k miles. The price I am purchasing it for is 14k, probably could get him down to 13.5k. The only thing that worries me is the fact that it was sprayed, but judging by the gauges and wideband, I think he was at least consciensious about the spray. What do you guys think?
Honestly if it's clean and seems to drive ok(make sure to listen for that read end), I think it's a steal. I paid 14k + ttl 10 months ago for my 01 WS6 w/ 88k miles and only mods were a lid and borla adjustable catback. Rearend went out on me 1 month after purchase, DOH!

21k for an 02 2 yrs ago isnt a bad deal. I paid 24,900 for my car as a 1yr old w/20k on it in 2000. Fully loaded, every SLP option as well.

It all depends on location. I got my 00 in 05 with 19,000 miles on it for 17,500. I have seen them for more here in Seattle.

Nope. I found it on Autotrader, and me and my friend almost **** ourselves! I tried to find it again, it's gone. Maybe they realized they were retarded! People are still nuts though. Here's one with 113,000 miles for 16k$. I got my SS for 19k$ with 9,000 miles on the clock!!

Overpriced T/A

Ahh hate to hijack but currently looking at this car

01 trans am SOM color A4
98k on the clock
GMMG exhaust
After market ram air hood
Needs rotors, shocks/struts, brakes
has a small tear in the driver seat, real small, typical cracks on door panels
He's got some Smoothie 2's but the tires are bald, but he's got another set of rims that have tread on the tire.

He's telling me 11000 for it.

Anyone want to give me an idea on this one?

damn, sounds like a damn nice ride man. post some pics if u can get some. still sounds kind of high, but just because of the miles. Has this guy done all the work himself or was it all profesional? I would try and have it looked over my a mechanic and if its sound then i would haggle alittle and see if he cant bring it down some.

No more than $7000-$8500 with all that **** wrong with it. For what you can get for 10k these days, thats not a good deal. Ok maybe thats a little low. lol but not 11 and not even 10

Thanx guys. i'll probaly go look ast the car in Feburary.
Some of you said that location matters and we are both in California if that should make a diference on the price

I think one of the boyds needs a little repair aswell. But yeah the miles are just creeping to 100k

wiseass, that 01 ws6 sounds like a good deal. as for the 99 ws6 for hatchedgti, i would say pass or 12k tops just b/c it had nitrous on it before...IMO

Dose an after market ram air hood bring the value down. The SOM color matches the rest of the body awesome, ahhh i don't know, i guess I'll know when i go see it. But i think 11k is a lil steep for the amount of miles.

You can find a 99 a lot cheaper. Dont buy a car thats been sprayed unless it has a forged botton end setup for it.
i agree with this fellar.

personally, i would NEVER buy a sprayed car, but to each his own.
