Default Help! Is this a good price

I'm thinking of buying a zr1 from a guy that is used about 30,000 miles and is in mint condition. It's a 2009 3zr for 80,000. It's either I buy that or a new z06 for about the same price. A new zr1 Is about 25,000 dollars more. What's the best deal. Thanks alot

30,000 still pretty low milage. I got mine for $83,000 with 11,000 miles. I would try $75,000.

Wait about a year if possible for low mileage '09s for $80,000. That's a lot of ticks.

I know what you guys are saying about waiting for a better low milage deal and I might try that but I know what debredzr1 is saying, I want to have fun now. Because my tt c6 is pretty much sold and I'm going to need something to mod.

Sounds like the owner has been enjoying the car for what it was meant to be - driven!!

This is what I think is fair based off other prices
New 2011 110K
New 2010 is 98-102K
Used low mileage 2010 low-mid 90s.
Used low mileage 2009 low-mid 80s
hi mileage 2009 70-75K

With the glut of 2010s w/0% financing on them sitting on showroom floors it's driving all the prices down. I just told a dealer yesterday I would pay 103 for a fully loaded 2010 but after Christmas my offer will be 95K. Prices are falling fast.
