Default 2001 WS6 Artic White 14k Miles

What is my car worth if I try to sell it. Should I wait untill after the winter or sell now? The car is perfect in every way and is an A4. Black interior and 100% stock.

Wait if you can. With such ultra low mileage you should get a nice little premium over retail. Unfortunately as stated already this is NOT a realistic time to get what the car deserves if it as MINT as you state. In the right market I would ask $16,000 but right now maybe $13-$14,000. Taking less would be a real shame. Not many examples such as yours are left, probably less thas 5% of all F-bodies have that kind of mileage.

Dam! That is it. I was thinking $18,000 give or take a few $$$. That is LOW. Are these cars worth more modded or stock? Is it the A4 that makes such a low mile car worth sh!#
I cant help but wonder what a 70k mile car would sell for?

Personally I think stock is best because it opens the doors for ALL buyers including collectors. People that want to mod them can do it themselves and people that want all original have what they want to. I would gladly give you $16,000 for your car if I was in the market. It is definitely worth that. $18k is a tad high but not crazy high for someone looking for specific colors or options such as yours. Where else can you get one? I understand your situation since I own a 12,000 mile '01 T/A vert. It is worth WAY more than what I could actually get, but if I had to sell I know what a real world price would be unless I found that one buyer that wanted exactly what I have. Unfortunate but true. The 'downward' cycle for our cars will continue for many years before the upside kicks in one day for the low mileage examples.

For that kid of money I would never sell it. I will just keep the car and enjoy it. It is kind of good because when I drive the car I wont feel bad putting on more miles. What I am trying to say is that the car is not worth a ton of money with low miles so keep on driving!

Exactly right unless you plan on keeping the car for 20-30 years. I have no plans to sell mine at all, and with the V8 cars possibly going the way of the dodo bird, I can see a real upside one day. I drive two other cars so I get to keep my miles real low, about 2,000 a year on the best of sunny days. I imagine you are in the same boat with your low miles. I enjoy the car so much this way, a real pleasure every time I turn on the key. A 40,000 mile V8 American muscle car in 20+ more years will be worth some good $$$ even if gas is $10 a gallon. There just won't be many around that are in original excellent condition. Every person has a different situation but the most important thing, while gas is nice and low, is enjoy your ride!
