96 Grand Sport
Anyone know where to go via the internet to find out the true value of a 96 Grand Sport? If not the internet, where else can I look? I'm looking to buy, however, I want to make sure the value is right. :chevy

Re: 96 Grand Sport (spierp)
There's one going on ebay right now.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1874040666
There's also Rogers, who seems hold title to every one that isn't privately owned. :D
The other thing I would try is the autotrader. Do a search nationwide and it should give you a basis to go on.
Good Luck! :cheers:

Re: 96 Grand Sport (JPLT1)
This was also a concern when I was getting ready to buy a GS. Most Blue Books such as Kelly's and many others will not factor in th limited production of the car. I was told a mint GS with 16K miles was worth $22,900 :rolleyes:
I asked around and there are blue books that pay close attention to Rare limited edition cars. THe one that I referanced was called the CAI or CIA book something like that (sorry i've slept since then) Anyways they told me the car was worth $29,900.
My advice would be to call your bank or insurance co. or just ask around I'm sure someone will beable to give you the name of a blue book with this feature.
Good Luck :cheers:
By the way they are worth every penny :yesnod:

Re: 96 Grand Sport (spierp)
Glad to see that another GS may find a good home in MN!!
When I bought mine in '00, I had spent about 6 months watching the GS market using various sites on internet as my primary source of info. This included the following sites: ebay, autotrader.com, rogerscorvette.com, and hemmings.com. I also signed up on the Grand Sport e-mail list at www.grandsportregistry.com which is another great source of info. In addition, this site has a classifieds section for GSs. You can also find them for sale in the C4s For Sale/Wanted section right here on this forum.
The internet is an invaluable tool for finding and learning the value of a limited production car like a GS. Best of luck to you and hope to see you at some events next summer. Keep an eye on the Great Lakes section of this forum for local events. :cheers: :cheers:

Hello from a fellow Minnesotan! :seeya I would also recommend grandsportregistry.com as well as hashmarks.com. For classifieds try collectorcartraderonline.com, vettefinders.com and corvettetrader.com or do a search on 1996 Grand Sport for sale. For values try vettefinders.com or corvettemagazine.com. Good luck, hope to see another GS in MN. :thumbs:

Re: 96 Grand Sport (Z Factor)
I just remembered where I found the Bluebook you need for Rare cars.....
E-mail Roger's Corvette Center and tell them about your situation, David Jr. should e-mail you back with what the book is called along with a website Good Luck
