What would a 96 CE with 4k miles be worth?
It's at a local dealer and is in flawless condition.
Has most options, except suspension F45?
Has 2 tops.

And could someone run a carfax for me please?
1G1YY225XT5105919

I can hardly wait to get back behind the wheel of a vette again :)

Thanks much.

Coolcar

Just a guess, but I would say 25-27 thousand would be reasonable for that mileage. I'm sure they want more than that, but I don't know if the market will allow it.

I will try to send your carfax to you, but I haven't done this before, so hopefully I'll get it right!

Good luck. :seeya

Here it is. Good luck with it.

By the way, my carfax account expires on the 11th. I'll be leaving town on the afternoon of the 8th, but if anyone needs one before then, just holler!

MacA1979

Before you "pull the trigger" on the low mile one, why don't you consider mine. I have a '96 LT4 (6 spd) Collector Edition that I would sell for a reasonable price. Look in my signature below for the details and click in the link to my website for additional info.

She has around (not exactly sure and I am at work) 36K miles and is in EXCELLENT condition. Matter of fact, I just won a trophy at the AutoFair this weekend at Lowes Motor Speedway in Charlotte. This is the 2nd trophy I have won since buying it one year ago!! I also have all of the original parts if you wanted to put her back to stock!

I would take $19,500 (slightly negotiable!). I have the C5 itch right now! Not really trying very hard to sell her yet, but thought you might want to take a look!

mjtihen

Well ya snooze ya lose.
The guy sold it for 29k yesterday.

QikStik yours looks nice and I may warm up to a long distance purchase yet, but I'm recollecting my thoughts now. I wasn't really after a CE per say, but the 4k miles was attracting me on that one. I may even see if I can get into a C5.
Now if you wanted to drive it up to St. Louis and demo it for me that would sure help LOL :crazy:

MacA1979

There are a lot of Forum members around Charlotte that can check it out for you! :D Whatever you decide, GOOD LUCK with your search!! :cheers:

BTW, Do you know what the 4K mile CE sold for? What were they asking?

Mark

mjtihen

It sold for 29k even, he was asking 29,995
It was in flawless condition.
I knew it would sell fast, didn't expect it to go that fast though.

TOM65 L76 96 LT1

Sent you A IM

legendzzz

Your better off with a C5 at that price. When that car gets miles on it the value will drop ALOT! At least with the GREAT C5 prices now you will be in the drivers seat(no pun intended) and down the road the guy who bought the C4 from you helped you make the better choice. :yesnod: :cheers: :yesnod:

cruzr

You may want to check in the post dispatch. A dealer in Manchester has been advertising a 96 LT4 with 60000 miles for $16500.00 for a couple weeks now. It is supposedly in ex condition. I think he is a BMW dealer. If it checks out let me know, and good luck. :cheers: Im looking for dependable dailey driver for under $10000, my driver was stolen yesterday. :sad:
