Selling my Car

I may be selling my 91 RS to buy a 94 Vette. I was wonderin what you guys think my car is worth, it's in the sig. It has a couple of little stains on the passenger seat, a couple small dings, a little hail damage(not easily noticeable), a small bit of chipped paint around the front parking lights, and spidering around the front ground effects. Despite all that, it is a very nice car.

The Vette is a 94 white/red leather, 54k, auto, no mods, needs rear wheel bearings. $8500. The guy will give me $4100 for my car and I'm trying to decide wheather to take that for it of try to sell it outright.

What do you guys think??

4100. is a pretty decent price for trading it. But you could probably make atleast another 500. on the car if you sold it your self. Just depends on how soon you want your vette. I had a 92 firebird, perfect condition, but completely stock, and I only got 3500.00 out of it so. Anyway, hope this helps.

I would TRADE. That is a great price on the Vette and good price for your car. I can't even get that trade on my 91 RS V8 Convertible.

Thats a good trade-in price. Even better if you replace the posi and gears with the OEM stuff before you bring it to the dealer.

Well I talked to the guy at the lot today and he has now decided to only give me $1000 or $2000 for my car. hell no!

I think I will just try to sell my car outright. What should I ask for it?
I was thinkin $5100. I was also thinkin about ebay.

Opinions?

Today I found out the frame on the Vette has been damaged, so it's a no go--dammit.
