Its a beautiful car and it looks very tastefully done, but I think you'll have a hard time selling it at that price. Unfortunately the C4 market is a little soft right now. If I was going to spend that kind of money on a C4, I'd probably be looking for a low mileage ZR-1. I'd think probably in the 18-20k range would be more realistic, but maybe more if you find the right buyer.

:iagree: Why buy a C4 for $25k when you can get a nice C5 for around that price. Granted it might not be a 400rwhp monster!!

Good luck! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Thanks alot guys. I wanted honest feedback.

Truthfully the car is worth a lot more to me and is everything I wanted in a Vette. Looks like I may have to keep the Vette for a few more years and supplement it with a Viper once the tech market picks up.

I'd definitly keep it if I was you. You have an awesome ride there and you're the only one who will really appreciate all the hard work you put into it. Its unfortunate, but you never get what you put into them :nonod:

You might find someone if you wait long enough but like TA said you never get what you put into the car, back.

While that price might be a little high right now, I for one would rather have a C4 than a C5. For me the C4 is like a Harley and a C5 is like a Honda, I've owned both and though the Honda IS a better motorcycle it hasn't got the Soul that draws me to it. :jester

I'd have to agree with everyone else here...you'd probably have a real hard time selling it at that price. For $25k, you could pick up a similar mileage C5, throw an intercooled magnacharger on it and have 450rwhp...

Yes, there's a certain appeal to the C4, and the comp yellow is great, but similar cars with much lower mileage are pulling about 10k less (w/o go fast goodies).

So True...But Vert should help price, some. Maybe more like $20K U.S.

I would think that $22.5K would be a good price to get......

As an update, I have decided to keep the Vette and supplement (add) it with either a C5 or other project car in the distant future. Especially the way C5 prices are falling.

As for price, I did get several inquiries to buy the car at that price. Looking at the Canadian market, my price is under the going rate. It appears that the sports car market may be picking up in Canada a little quicker than the States. As an fyi, mid 90's ragtops are going for high $28k - $35k CDN stock.

So I'll keep driving and enjoying the open roads with my baby for some time longer.

That may be the asking price, but from what I see in the Eastern Canadian market, those are no where near the actual selling prices.

IMO they are about $10K less than what you quoted.
