    Z06 or WS6 dilemma

    So I've had my 41k miles M6 WS6 for almost a year now and the other day on my way to work I spot a cherry 15k miles 02 M6 Z06 at the used car lot. I'm seriously gassing for this car. Their asking price is 28k and the only mods are the addition of 17" and 18" C6 Z06 wheels. I know the Z06 will have way more value later on than my WS6 especially with the low miles. It seems like I'm never happy with what I have. Should I go for it? Who hear has a C5 Z06? Anyone know a good forum for LS6s or C5 Z06s? I'll upload pics tomorrow morning when I get home from work.

    Thanks

    UPDATE

    Just went and test drove this vette. They only offered me $10.5k for my 41k mile unmodified (except for catback) WS6 M6.

    They're asking $28,950 for the vette. Only mods are Cray 17x9/18x10.5 wheels (which im not a huge fan of but can deal with).

    HEre are the numbers:

    2002 Z06 15k miles: Asking Price $28,950
    NADA Trade In $26,200
    NADA Retail $29,575
    Kelly Blue Book: Suggested Retail $30,480
    Kelly Blue Book: Trade in $23,675
    Kelly Blue Book: Bought from Private party: $27,250


    2000 WS6 41k miles: Dealer offered me $10,500
    NADA Low $10,850,
    NADA Mid $13,650,
    NADA High $18,700
    Kelly Blue Book: Suggested Retail $14,730
    Kelly Blue Book: Trade In$10,125

    Im guessing they paid about $24,000 for the Z06 so they have about $5000 to play with and they'll probably make about $3000 off my car so that would be about $8000 profit for them if everything is at their offered price. Im thinking I have them give me at least $12-13k for my car. What do you guys think? Vette values are new to me so Im trying to do as much research as possible. Also I have to think about the fact that there will probably be snow on the ground in two months and this thing will be parked in the garage all winter.

    My WS6


    btw there is probably a good chance someone from the dealership is reading this. This internet place is such a small world. lol

    If you can afford it the c5z06 is a better handling faster car with better fit and finish and ride.

    I wouldn't be able to get rid of my WS.6 because of the time I have put into it, but I would LOVE to have a C5Z06.

    I'll get mine right after you get yours. I'd have one now if it had a place in the back for 2 car seats. Kids just keep beating me down.

    Thanks for the opinions and links! If my WS6 was modded as heavy as Luos' I would have a real hard time getting rid of it.

    +1 everything I ave learned about cars over the last 4 years has involved my car, it has been such a big part of my life that i couldnt get rid of it now but if i had a stock ws.6 or even remotely stock it would be gone in a heartbeat for that vette..

    I have been in the same boat. Although my daily driver is my GTO I am definitely thinking of getting the Vette. The only problem is only a two seater. :-(

    Get the C5 Z06, would love to have one but don't want another payment. I have my DD and my lovely black beast. The money I would stick into a Z06, I could rape one all around with my car, handling or 1/4. Now C6 Z06 on the other hand

    Man: The Mods you are fighting,
    they are the biggest Men I have ever seen. I
    wouldn't want to fight them!

    Me: That is why no one will remember your name!
