The search continues... So, I'm still looking for the right T/A for me. I wanted a low mileage WS6 but everyone seems to think that if it's under 25k miles then its worth about 25 g's. So I may look at a bit higher mileage. How does this one strike everyone?

Definitly...but good luck, these things are like GOLD here. I had someone try to sell me one for 24,500...
I was a bit pissed when they came at me with that figure. I told them if they get off whatever drugs they had to be on, to give me a call with a better price I know the market in the Midwest can seem tough, but better deals are out there. You just need to be patient and stay on top of the ads. In my opinion, $25k is a ridiculous price for any f-body. The exceptions would be SLP cars, special editions, or extremely low mileage examples. Even then, $25k is pretty steep. I know people pay those prices, but it is not necessary. When I was looking for an LS1 f-body, I concentrated on Firehawks. I could have bought numerous low mileage (<10k) ’01 or ’02 Hawks for less than $25k. Even those that advertise for ridiculous prices may eventually come down. Good luck with the search.

Just went through the same thing you have been going through. The exact same thing. Finally after searching for several months I just purchased a 2002 WS6 TA for 21k, it has 22k miles. The seller was listing it for 23,500 and I sent him an email last week that if he wanted to lower the price to something that was more fair and equatable I would love to take a look at it. He responed with he would let it go for 21.5, went to see the car told him I would give him 21k and I would pick it up this coming weekend.
Sooo Hopefully Saturday I will be a proud f body owner!
Keep searching and you have to take your time.
