I took it to the dealer to see what I could get. I had 2300 miles. Msrp was just under 55k. They offered 45k, carmax offered 47k. Had mine listed for sale but because I wasn’t sure about it so I didn’t have anyone come see it until I was certain. Someone without seeing it offered 48k. I think I had a more serious buyer though who contacted me multiple times but can’t say for sure what his offer would have been.

Anyway it was getting closer to my first scheduled track day and I noticed the market was easing up on the car I had in mind as a replacement (13/14 GT500). Decided I would wait until my first track day to make a decision.

Midway through the track day I removed my for sale ad as I was hooked. I know you said you don’t have time to drive it but I promise you will MAKE time to track it if you just take it one time haha.

Anyway to answer your question take it to multiple dealers and add 5-7k to their offer. List your car for that muc with obo listed as well. I would take any offer that’s 3-4K more than the dealer as that’s most likely fair. The used and new market have stabilized. The days of ridiculous trade in offers are gone which lowers the private sale price since we don’t have that as a negotiation tactic anymore.

You have a rare beautiful spec and unless you absolutely need the money I think you’re gonna regret selling it.
Hopefully tracking the car will help sway me to keep it, trying to make it to one as soon as possible. Not a huge fan of the closest road course that’s close to me ( old beat up municipal airport) and the closest nice track is an arm and leg to go for the day. I really do enjoy the car when I drive it, just thought I would drive it more than I really get to. It really does seem like there’s a pretty good amount of people that don’t drive them all that often as well. So it’s probably just more of an overreaction on my end thinking that I’m wasting money on it sitting there. I’m the type that doesn’t like to keep my money working for me, it’s something I’m trying to look past with this though.
