Default 02 Black WS6 for $16995 worth it?????

Ok, so I quit one of my jobs and now I need to cut my payments on my Trans am a little. So I went shopping today and found a Black 2002 WS6 M6 and I believe it was a one owner. I didn’t get to drive it but it was clean for a 60,430 mile car for $16995. The car was all stock but a SLP lid and a SLP LM 1. I would be trading in my 2002 WS6 Pewter M6 with 28,145 miles which is all stock except a K&N air filter. The dealership would be giving me $18995 for it, which I think is a good price. The Black Trans has all the service documents as well. Is it worth a $2000 decrease or do I just sell my DD and keep the Trans am? I am so lost.

Thanks in advance

Keep yours... I bought the car in my sig, with ALL the mods minus the 2 core and Fikse's, with 63k on it for less than that (less than 1500 miles on the entire built at that). I got somewhat of a deal though

It sounds like a dumb idea to me. By the time you'd pay taxes, registration & tag you really wouldn't be saving much at all.

I'm shocked the dealer is willing to give you just about $19k for your car. ****, I'm surprised they didn't say that you would end up oweing them money on that deal.
