Default Might buy another ls1 tomorrow

So it's been about 6 months since I sold my 02 ws6 to a guy in Arlington and I've been hurting every single day since then. I have found a white 02 ws6 *bone stock* with 68k miles on it and seems to be in decent condition. I might be driving it home tomorrow. It doesn't have the original ws6 rims which bothers me, it has the regular trans am rims with the anti lock brake centercap. I don't know if I should haggle to get the price lower because they aren't the right rims...what do you think?

Nothing at all, the dealership is near my store and I am going to look at it in the morning. It is a dodge dealership and the guy traded it in on a new challenger, sorry to hijack your thread man.... but this is a hella deal and I don't know anyone looking for a car.

Hella of a deal or not, this is the start of the price plunge for these cars. Everyone can say the prices will increase, but they will not. This is a bad market and a car that is 8-9 years old is just that, old and are not worth what the owners feel they should be.

Yeah I contacted them about that car, I thought it was extremely overpriced so I had to let is pass. It does look good though.

Dude that is so high it is rediculous man, I will sell you my ta for 16k. Tell them to think of the best price they can give in their head and then tell them to subtract 2k from that and you have a deal.

Rayven, I think the white car seems a bit overpriced especially since the WS6 wheels are missing. I would also check it over very carefully. If someone removed the WS6 wheels and threw dime a dozen 16" wheels on it, you have to wonder what else they may have done.

The car does look good in the pics, however.

The red '01 TA seems to be a good bargain. Pictures can lie so check it out thoroughly. If it turns out to be a clean car with no accidents and a clean carfax, then that is a nice price.

This is a BUYERS economy. Go up to the dealer, check the car out, ask for the price then laugh at it. Tell them what you'd pay ~11k + TTL, and if they reject just tell them have fun sitting on that inventory...Give them your number, and not to call unless they want to let it go for 11 (or whatever your target price is)...
