Thanks for the feedback. I don't even want to sell it but I haven't been able to find work in awhile and have other important bills that need to be paid. I realize 8k is right around Kelley blue book give or take a few hundred dollars but that's really a starting point all considering the mileage and a stock vehicle... They don't take into consideration of supply and demand, if it's a collectible or has any aftermarket or rare thing about it.... so really it comes down to fair market value or what someone is willing to pay for it. I will have to check the WTB section though, thanks for that idea.

Still, awesome car, I love it! Don't think I've ever seen a TA in bright blue with a WS6 hood, VERY sharp!

I believe mileage is a small factor when it's considered a collectible unless it's beat to **** or something. All the mileage on this TA is mostly highway miles and that LS1 engine has many more strong miles left on her. A collector's item, in contrast is made without the intention of special interest but due to rarity or uniqueness, production fault, human error, or other events, becomes sought after due to its rarity in these circumstances and that's what gives this TA the most value. The aftermarket in my opinion only adds to the value because I will agree you never really break even however, it's still to your benefit long term. That is considering upgrades have been properly installed and are the ones you'd want to purchase if the vehicle was bone stock. The nice thing about this TA is the engine is still bone stock besides the cold air intake and SLP MAF. I built a bullet proof suspension to handle whatever engine build your heart desires. Further more If you can visualize this TA completing your garage feel free to post an offer.

Alright folks this is as low as I'm willing to sell this car. It's been tough times in CA and I'm fully prepared to take a bit of a loss for this sharp TA. Your gain my loss but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Good eye and yes I just had a $700 dollar paint job on the hood since it was starting to fade and the clear coat was coming off.

Yeah. Although I'm with the other guy on collectibles and think the price is too high, people become irrational about high-mileage cars, as though major parts are going to blow up tomorrow. Maybe a spot-clean inspection would help. Probably not, based on my own thread.

Ha ha I know it's like at any moment the connecting rod is about to smash through the side of the engine block right. Seems like no one gives the LS1 engine enough credit how solid these engines are. I work at a test only smog station and I see these engines come in with 250k plus miles and running strong and passing smog with flying colors. I'm not going any lower on the price because I'm already giving the buyer a great deal.

Time's are tough and now I have no other choice but to lower the price again. My loss your gain. Asking 8k or best offer but please no low ballers this TA is worth a fair offer.
