The point he was trying to make is the C6 Z06 and C7 on a performance standpoint are near identical. So, why not get a brand new car for the same asking price as a 6 year old one? Not to mention you get a brand new warranty and a brand new car.

My boy, I'm afraid those who might have been interested have now been quite put off by your stated resentment of the answers/opinions not being those you wished to read. The plain fact is as many (including me several pages back) advised we thought the price was simply too high and let it go at that. If you choose to disagree then drop the continuing argumentative banter and wait for a buyer. Your continued firing at those you perceive as insulting you is only going to hurt the attempt to sell.

I think his only interest is in getting max attention in any form he can. In fact, I don't think he really wants to sell his car at all. I think it's all about him being a tool and getting flamed, etc., etc...
Well...he has achieved his goal. He's like a car accident. You really don't wanna look...but you just can't resist.
Show's over.

Bingo.
People rant and rave that their car is getting no attention but then refuse to hear others out when they tell them their car is priced too high. So it'll just continue to sit until something changes.
I understand it's tough to sell a car for a substantial loss. But that will teach a lesson to do your homework when buying again. I have fallen victim to that myself. Never again will I get over-anxious and pay more than I should. It's frustrating tho. Because I'm in the market for a C6Z myself but all I can come across are people asking too much for their cars and refusing to budge. But I'll just wait it out.

Lucky to get half the money back after 2 years... that's life.
Use them and enjoy them... don't worry about the mileage.
I also have a C4 and 14 year old Harley... I use them and enjoy them... you are a long time dead.

Good luck selling your car, who knows maybe the attention will get
you the price... but I think your attitude will drive a buyer else where.

OP, you need to market the car to a broader audience than this particular forum. Autotrader, Ebay, local Craigslist, etc. It's a numbers game and the more eyeballs on your car the more likely you'll get *closer* to your asking price. It's imperative that you get some one to help you take quality pics of your car. Good pics make a huge difference in the number of responses you'll get to an ad.

This is the dumbest thread I've read in a while. It is just simple economics OP. If you post something for sale and it doesn't sell, you are asking to much. Sure, people might think you asking price is appropriate, but they aren't the ones that are in the market. It is highly likely that they have a similar car to yours (low miles and in perfect shape) and could be kicking the tires about selling. Being angry that it hasn't sold yet is just silly. Lower your price a few thousand and watch it sell pretty quick. Don't lower the price and act like a jerk when people give offers that are in line with the market and watch the car sit in your garage

I sold my 2lt jsb '08 Z last July to make room for the C7. It had 28k, stock except for new Michelin PSSs, 3m film, tint, leather door handles and console cover, hydrocarbon body vents, Lloyd mats and a few other appearance items. The car was immaculate, no dings or swirls, one 1/4" rip in driver seat bolster but came with a spare set of seat skins. It sold for 42,000 in a day and had three other guys begging for it - I then realized that it would have brought 45,000 but had already promised to the first guy that made the offer and I thought that was a reasonable price for a five year old car.
If I was to buy your car for 48 the first thing I would do for peace of mind would be to drop 4k into reworked heads, now we're at 52 - base C7 territory. I loved the C6 and really miss the color but not enough garage space to keep both, same will go for the Stingray when the new Z is available. The difference in resale for a 4k mile car like yours and a 40k mile car is maybe 5-6 grand, that's why my C7 is getting driven as much as possible.
Unless there's another car really calling to you I would say just drive the hell out of it.
