a dealership in town has this huge sale today and knocked $3k off this 97 TA WS6 so the asking price now is $10k. It has 65k miles , the paint is awesome, except for spidering in the front bumper, chrome ws6 wheels with newer goodyear eagle F1s. it is a m6 tan leather interior monsoon deck no monsoon sub, non ttop power everything else (and they work) , its never seen snow and it runs well. is $10k too much? the vin is 2G2FV22P4V2218714. thanks for the help.

Just fyi from someone whos worked at dealerships for a few years, those "once a year huge sales" or the "weve secured 500 cars that need sold this weekend only" are all bs. What they did unless theyve truly hired someone to mark them down, which the prices are later approved by the lot owner, is mark the price you see up then take that back down so in reality theyre only knocking off maybe $500-$1k. And then thats "bottom price", I mean cmon theyre already losing money right. When in reality any other day of the week you can usually get them to drop the price far more. And what 99% of them use is www.kbb.com for their base price.

 

Value is in the eye of the beholder. If you are gonna be happy about the price you pay for it, go for it. If you have thoughts that you are getting ripped, stay away.

 

Call me crazy, but I have seen 98 ~ 99 LS1s with comparable mileage going for near that price... If I had a choice, I would get the LS1.

Just me though
