Default Thinking about getting rid of Firehawk!!!

Well, looks like I need to go shopping for a family car in the near future. Wanting to see what the market is like for Firehawks.

2002 Firehawk Trans Am
M6 Red
Drillrd and slotted rotors
Only mods are MGW shifter and magnaflow exaust
43600 miles, garage kept, never smoked in. Paint is very good and also have ebony interior with only flaw in the infamous door panel crack.

it was at a used car stealership, I paid 16.5k for my 2002 ws6 that was on the same lot at the same time as the hawk, my wife liked the ws6 more and it only had 28k miles on it..

yeah, I'm thinking private party sell will be the best bet. Carmax offered me $11,000.

Carmax will then turn around and ask $18,000. Rip off artists.
I think you would get activity in the $15,000 range. It gives you a little room for negotiation too. You should definitely be able to sell it in the $13,000 - $14,000 area. The Firehawk name is still a selling point. GLWS!
