Appraise these Vipers - higher mileage

[Red Shift]

What do you think the following 2 Vipers are worth?

They are higher mileage. I understand the cars are fine at these mileages IF they are maintained. I may take an international assignment in the coming future so resale value is a top priority for me. How does the high mileage affect your pricing?

I know the owner of the 97 and can vouch for him as being a straight up guy and not one to abuse his Viper.

The 97s value just went up!

precisely


that B/W is a steal @ $32K if the inspection checks out ok and it has a clear title.
I Would have payed 40 for similar when i was in the market this time last year.

If they are clean mid 30's to maybe 40. This economy is not helping needless to say. Blue one definitely seems VERY reasonably priced. Figured nice lower mileage cars are going for 45 to 50's and super low mile B&W's get mid fifties on up all day long. Everything is at rock bottom right now.

Yes, but keep in mind A 13year old car should be maintained
regardless of mileage.

I would go after the B/W. It will always have a better resale value than red.

Please do your homework and take your time. You can get a nice unabused car for about 35-40k with 15k miles and under. Heck there is a 97 on here for 39k and 8k miles. I am sure he could deal a bit too as his car has been for sale on here and other places for about 8 months. Take your time. I wouldnt have gotten either of those right now that u are listing.

I had to click on it to make sure it wasn't yours!

My 97 GTS with 8k miles is still for sale. I really need to sell soon so i dont have to keep my new toy stored at a friends house all winter.

Like others have said look around and you will find the right one. The B/W one will hold its value more in the end like 2MANYTOYS said. Make sure that you inspect the car your self, a carfax wont always tell the whole story. Make sure and send a professional inspector to look at the car before making a decision. Good luck and hopefully you will be an owner

True, but red cars are faster

I have a RED twin turbo sticker on mine does that count??

It counts but I'm not sure it makes up for the power sapping yellow all over the rest of the car!
