(I don't know if I'm right, but it sounds good) Tell him your about to go buy an '04 50th Z06 for 35K with 10,000 miles and see what he says....

The ones I looked at with low mileage were in the mid to low $40s.

A fool and his money....

I hope he finds a sucker - but you might want to point him to www.kbb.com and www.edmunds.com for a swift kick up the behind and a unpleasant wake up call.

He can ask anything he wants but it doesn't mean he'll get it (and he most likely won't get what he's asking).

I have two houses for sale right now. One for 400k and one for 550k. If he gets 49 for that, then I can get 550 and 800. The car is worth less than 40. But if he does find a buyer at his price, send him my way for a real estae deal.

I think it could bring 45-46. 50 is a bit of a stretch. 50ths do bring quite a bit more.

I guess he could get lucky, but IMO, too many AEs were built for him to get that price. 54% of all verts built in '03 were AEs.

They are nice cars but the prices people ask for these cars are just so widespread.
