People ,stop giving these cars away,it is killing the value all over the states...Well except for MS. My car brought 29.5k with minor boltons and 18k miles.....took 3weeks to sale it....local buyer and he was 19yrs old...:pepper:
Anyway all of these cars are usually mint condition and you have spent hours of labor on them and cleaning time,my point is they are no longer in production they should bring premium prices......good day and farewell..
I MOVED OVER TO THE DRKSIDE NOW....n/a....

Congrats but its prolly cause he was 19. Your car was easily worht 25k but you know its all about condition. If yours was in excellent shape, than that makes it worth it.

I know they are getting older and are going to depreciate but I agree with the op. I don't understand why people want to give them away.

The lower you sell lthese cars, the more it de-values them and undermines us as sellers. These cars are seriously bad ass.

The thing is that when they stay that high priced they get pretty far into vette territory. Example, 29.5k would get you a pretty decent Z06, its all dependent on whats on the market for a given price.

Dont get me wrong guys,the terminator was my dream car ,a little small cause im a lardass but, when you got behind the wheel and all the honeys were looking and that supercharger was screeming it was fn awesome. But i wanted a daily driver and a car i could race on the weekends and this car was to perfect to tare up so then came the decision of selling and getn a pickup to tow with and a street car that i could play with.....

shake and bake baby, dont think its the wrong forum, he sold his car and got what he wanted, and everyone else on here is just giving their car away for what ever reason. i would sit on my price till it sold, these cars are rare they are going to make more gt500's than 03/04 cobra's not saying the 03/04 will be worth more, but stop giving them away. there is a dealer by me that has a 03 dsg with like 25k on it and they are asking around 29k

I agree with some of you, the Term and Z06 are very different cars. I have owned both, an 03 Z06 50th Anniversary & 04 Term (500RWHP, current car). It comes down to what you are looking for. The Z06 is smooth, fast and very capable. I raced many-a Ferrari, Porsche, etc, in it and it will not disappoint. But, the bottom line is the Term is more fun. It has muscle car (read violent acceleration) vs. Vette's Lexus-like delivery. Again, it's what your after. The Term feels faster because of the violence, thus fun factor and at the end of the day, its the "feel" that's fun, not the speedometer read. Just my thoughts...

:-D Terminators are some of the few cars that make a vette feel smooth and refined.

I just had my first ride in a term last night and jesus christ, it was unreal. I was looking to buy one soon, now i absolutely need it. Theyre amazing cars.
