Thinking about CE Z06
There is one CE Z06 left at my favorite chevy dealer and they want 48k. They will give me 30k for my '02 vert with 5k miles. With 0% for 72 months that is Around 250/mo. Is this CE z06 worth the extra 15-18 grand?

48k seems a little high but it sounds like a fair price on the trade. As far as value, that is a personal question. If you have the money and want the car, its worth it.

I've been looking at Z16's and that is the going price here in FL. Does that include the $3,000 rebate? If so, they will add that back in and the car goes for $51k then. Beware as I ran across this just the other day. If you are getting it for $48k at 0% (less your trade), that seems like a good deal.

30k for your trade in seems low, I would think you can sell it on your own for at least 35k, assuming with only 5k miles it is in pristine condition.

You may be able to get the Z16 a little cheaper, but the price they are offering on your car is not bad. You can almost always do better selling it yourself, but then the other car may be gone by the time you get it sold. If you like the car, go for it before it is too late. I love the looks of the Z16 and the performance is sweet.

An extra 15-18 grand for 50hp, better suspension, 5,000 miles less on the odometer, a warranty that starts from day 1, and you lose the convertible aspect. I'd say 5,000 miles in negligible.
15-18 grand is a very high percentage of your current car's resale value or the CE Z06...

I traded in my 03 coupe for one. Man what a difference! I had no idea how much better of a car the Z06 is.
I hated the stripes at first, but now I love them. Its nice having something unusual. My vote is yes.
