If you dont trad him them I will , but i think you car might be worth a little more

As for power, if its not a z06 then the Stock HP is about the same as the F-bodies, so whatever you spent on your car, I would guess you would have to spend pretty close to that agian on the vette to get the power the same.

But then agian, on resale value the vette would probably still sell for more, maybe around 21-22K, and you would have to find a very interested buy who is looking for exaclty what you have to get 21-22K
