Default '02 WS6 w/ 14k miles and IMMACULATE!

So, I'd like to move on to a C6 (...think I'm done with F-Body's, this is my 5th one) and want to see what my car will be worth come spring/summer time.

I purchased the car on 07/04/06 and it has been babied it's entire life. Honestly it has never been in rain or snow and is garage kept under a nice cover, it rarely comes out hence the low 14k miles, it also has never been to the track nor been beat on at all. I had a '99 TA for 5 1/2 years prior to purchasing this one and learned a ton in those years, which is why this one was treated so well and has only received the absolute best!

What do you guys think it is worth stock (I'd leave the exhaust set-up on it though)?
What about as it sits now with everything on it?
Details are as follows...

It's a 2002 WS6 in Black w/ Ebony interior, manual M6, loaded with all options except the 12 disc changer. The body is absolutely mint as it has always been VERY well kept, soon after bringing it home I went over it with a Porter Cable orbital and did the entire Menzerna polishing process over 5 days and then topped it off with UPP sealant and Pinnacle Sovereign wax, there is not a single swirl mark in the paint. The interior is absolutely mint as well as I've always been very careful with it and taken great care, none of the usual cracks in the door panels and the seats look like new. The undercarriage and engine bay are both spotless as well as I've put it on jack stands to clean the underside and the same attention and care has always been kept on the engine bay as well.

Only the best has gone on this car and mods are as follows:

Performance:
-Vette Dr's tune putting down 344rwhp & 349ftlbs (this was with all performance/drivetrain mods except at the time it was running an entirely stock intake set-up, even the stock air filter!)
-American Racing Headers custom true dual set-up which is entirely stainless steel, fabricatted and installed in-house at ARH...ARH 1 7/8" race headers into a 3" X-pipe, down to 2.5" into two Magnaflow bullets, over the axle and into two more bullets and ending with Corsa-clone exhaust tips. This set-up is nice and mild when cruising around with a nice very deep and muscular tone, it opens up and roars when you're getting on it. Fit and finish are absolutely second to none.
-MTI clear lid, K&N filter, SLP bellows and into a New Era ported & polished tb.
-MSD wires in black and NGK TR55 plugs
-WS6 store shorter shift stick on the factory optional Hurst shifter.

Exterior/bling:
-CCW SP500's 18x10" & 18x11" (only about 2k miles on these and spotless!)
-Paint is absolutely mint
-Collectors Edition WS6 emblem (black vs. the normal red)
-Blank rear taillight filler panel
-Clear front marker lights
-Removed all side moldings, emblems and ram air decals
-Performed the !wire mod
-Power antenna switch in ashtray
-25% Tint all-around

Interior/Electronics:
-NR Auto silver gauge face overlays
-MBA Billet Aluminum pedals
-MBA Billet Aluminum HVAC *****
-MBA Billet Aluminum shift **** with engraved Pontiac crest/arrowhead
-Raptor shiftlight mounted in driver's side window vent
-Ipod hard-wired to factory Monsoon deck
-'Unlock' once = both doors unlock mod

Suspension/Chassis:
-Nitto 555R (285/35/18) & Nitto 555DR's (305/35/18)
-Koni DA (Dual-adjustable) shocks
-Strano springs
-UMI 3-Point bolt on SFC's
-Spohn Adjustable torque arm
-APHR (Coleman/QA1) and Poly/Rod adjustable LCA's

Drivetrain:
-Moser 12 bolt w/ 33 spline axles, TrueTrac, TA Perf. girdle and painted w/ POR 15...the enitre rear will be gone over/freshened up with a brand new diff. at time of sale. I purchased the rear with an Eaton HD posi but made the mistake of running synthetic in it at first so the Eaton is on it's way out.

I would say 20 grand. I would say more but other's seem to disagree. I would ask $22,500 if it was mine.

I'm with Martin .. $22.5K, minimum! It's just a matter of finding an educated and qualified buyer. A lot of folks THINK they can build one cheaper.

The economy is so bad right now it is hard to say. I 'm trying to sell mine also and condition of mine is just like yours but with more performance upgrades and 1 year older. I would say 19-20,000. I'm trying to get between 16-17,000 for my 01,WS6,28,000 miles. So yours is 1 year newer add 3-4,000. Now you could ask 22k and see what happens. Look it up at KBB if you dare. It is not pretty. Heck a 02 Z06 with low miles is only 22k on KBB value . I'm basing my price between KBB and NADA at 13,000 and adding another 3,500 for my over 10 k in mods.To come up with $ 16,500 I thought that was fair for mine. Base yours on this and see what you come up with.

I bought my 2002 Black WS6 with 38,xxx miles in Nov. 08, from the vehicle classifieds on this board. I was one of the lucky people out there who had the cash to buy a vehicle without having to finance it. Billy(the previous owner) started out asking 18K, then edited his thread to 17,000. He had numerous offers but no one came though. I told him I had $12,000 in cash that I would bring when I came to look at the car. I told him that he knew what I wanted to spend so I wouldn't talk about price while driving the car and getting it checked out and if he decided that he would take $12,000 for it to let me know while we were getting it inspected. Well, about an hour later I'm driving the TA back home to P'cola.

I also got lucky because the day before I was going to have to drive to Fayetteville, NC, he got stationed to daleville, AL, which is where Fort Ruckers. That made it a 142 mile trip instead of 690 miles.

Ding Ding we have a winner....these cars just aren't selling at all. NO matter how nice it is..Yes it's a georgeous car...but i gottta agree with SUX2BEME...nobodys got cash..and a 22k loan is hard to get for a 02 T/A from the bank.

You could always sell the exhaust to someone who already has ARH headers and needs it...

Im willing to make you a CASH offer a bit above what badazzta00 paid with some more miles. If you are interested let me know via PM. Also, I can buy this weekend if you have title in hand.
