Sounds a bit on the expensive side...If a 1997 with 24,000 miles on it is worth $16k, what is my 2002 with under 21,000 miles worth?

i am sure the seller will hi ball it... because everyone will lowball him... so just talk over it and meet at a FAIR middle price..

i laughed because the dealer offered me 2,500 for the car... i was like my transmission and yank ss4000 cost more then that..

not to add what done to the rest of the car... good luck man.

wayyy overpriced. I got my 00 firehawk for $15k with 13.5k miles. The guy was willing to go down to 13K. deals can be had, and i would get stock and mod yourself. This way you know what you have. Id be iffy about getting a used car with a stroker that has had n02 through it. Big gamble @ that price tag if your motor needs work, retuning and or a rebuild from getting oversprayed. If your willing to spend that much on that car, get a roller and build one up yourself, the way you want.

Wrong section. See 'What's It Worth' and yes, it is way overpriced.
