Default High Mileage 00SS

Any thoughts on what my NBM 203k mile daily driver is worth?
A4
T-tops
Stock. 1 owner.
Only SLP Options are chrome wheels and dual/dual, which are still on there.
She has a new alternator, new steering rack, fairly new water and fuel pumps.

I have SLP SS mats in her which are beat up, and I would include the original, also beat up, mats. Thing is, I have another set of SLP SS mats in ebony, still in the sealed plastic. Any thoughts on their worth?

If the interior isnt all ratted out, it would be worth up to about 4k here in FL. How is the underside and interior?

If the paint & interior are in good condition and the car has a good history of maintenance records available to look for the last few years, I could see $4000 to $5000.

Edit - the buyer should not expect to ever get $4000 to $5000 out of the car with 200+k miles on the car if the buyer resells in a few years.

Thanks guys.

We're in Florida now, but I wasn't expecting that kind of money.

I've had covers on the front seats and the steering wheel for a few years now, but it was too late. The drivers seat isn't in great shape. The other seats are all fine. The door panels may be faded but neither they nor the dash have any cracking.

I have most, if not all, of the maintenance records. Heck, I have nearly every gas receipt, but they're not organized.

If I had my druthers, I would like to find someone who wants the car to use, not part out. I always assumed we'd go out together, but the unexpected maintenance was making her unsuitable as a daily driver. If I had a bigger garage, I'd keep her.

Any thoughts on the new in bag mats?

Taking your time to sell the car will help with finding the right buyer. The seller in the following link kept his car washed and clean until and turned down several $2,500 to $3,500 dollar offers.

238k mile 02 Z28 - I paid $4,500 for it

Honestly, if you have feelings for the car being that the car is 1 owner car, if it's not too much of a financial burden I'd power through the necessary repairs and maintenance and keep the car. I have a 91 RS that was my daily for 25 years and nearly 400,000 miles. Eventually the RS was restored and LS swapped and now has well over 400,000 miles

Your SS is exactly the sort of car I'd want if I had room for a 5th car. A well maintained driver with maintenance records. I'd probably go $4500 to $5,000 on your car if I didn't have the high mile 02 Z28 in the link above

Wish you the best with the SS

Getting rid of a car your attached to is a bad idea. You will always regret it. I regret selling my 2002 Firehawk to this day. I still have dreams about the car as recently as last week. I haven't owned it for more than ten years.
