Default 2002 SOM SS Convertible 45xxx miles

Wondering what you guys would value this car at.

It is a rare car. 1 of 41 made with the SOM VERT so i am not looking for KBB pricing. Just curious as to if i ever sold it at its current condition..... how much should i ask?

It has all options from SLP except the blackwing however i do have the blackwing lid on the car.
CME exhaust, 6speed manual trans, black top and leather.
LS6 conversion with 243 heads and cam from a 04 Z06. Car puts down 393hp and 384 tq.
The car has lower miles per the title of the thread.

Car has pulley and headers.

What would you rate it at? I can look up KBB but that doesnt reflect a rare car like this.

On here, you could probably get 18k, maybe more if you find the right buyer. If you put it on autotrader or something, 20k-21k would be what i would expect to see advertised.

You will get more money from a private buyer who doesn't go on LS1tech. We know too much about these cars and usually lowball sellers.

$18,000 would be real optimistic. The mileage is still very good but not like the ultra low 21k when purchased. Also the mods will scare away many buyers (don't kid yourself) so you have limited your market a bit. On the bright side you have the highly desired rare color. I would ask $18,000 anyway but you would probably have to settle for quite a bit less.

Yeah i was hoping that it wouldn't be a deal where it wuld have to sell for a whole lot less than 18k.

The mods are really no big deal.... they are all GM parts (minus the headers and pulley) ... I did this so that no one would need to be really scared off by it not being "stock". The mods that are done are very tasteful and not overdone by any means. If i put the manifolds back on the car with the stock y pipe..... unless you knew what 243 is on the heads you wouldn't really know it was modded at all. Not that i dont intend on disclosing the fact that it has the ls6 but you know what i mean. THe ls6 part is a bonus IMO. Low maintenance and stock sounding.... It kinda makes it a nice sleeper when you lay the smack down on unexpecting stockish ls1's.

I wouldn't expect more than 18 but if could get it it would be wonderful. I surely would hold out for the right buyer. They are out there it just depends on if they see the ad.

It is a :
1. SS Som
2. M6
3. Vert
It really has everything going for it- crack this one out when the weather gets warm- and i wouldnt be suprised to see you pull 19k- poss. 20k? If the car did have that 15-20k mile mark on the ticker- it would fetch the 21k.. Hope this helps..
