TTA market
- Thread starter tta299

That is a tough one:coffee:, but following the market the last couple years, a nice TTA that has been driven should go for no less than $15K and up to $20K. I would put your TTA closer to the $20K mark. The only problem is with these cars, there is always 5-10 for sale, simple economics of supply and demand keeps driving the price down. I think there are at least 2 on Ebay right now and do a google search and you will find about 8 more for sale.
So it is still a buyers market, so you have to decide how bad you want to sell the car and price it accordingly. I know I wouldn't sell either of mine right now for no less than $15K and both 50K mileage on them.
On a couple of positive notes, I have noticed that people who are in the market for a TTA and do their research are willing to pay a premium price for a well maintained TTA. I also spoke to a classic car appraiser at our local car show last month and he said that nice third gen Trans Ams are really hot this year and people are really starting to buy them and that will help the values go up too.
Good luck your decision, not an easy one for sure.

Sounds a lot like my car. I'd put it at around 17.5k.
I agree that there are always a few available. Seems that location plays a large roll in moving these.

i paid 17,500 for it about 5yrs ago ... had to travel to Dear born Detroit to get it ... in looking for 20 will settle for 19,500 ... just making sure I had it priced reasonable i know the prices have fallen an its a buyers market not a sellers market. Thanks for the replies. I would like to sell it an my Harley an pick up another type of unmolested low mile turbo car. Car has been garaged kept with a noah cover on it. Ive only took it around the block in detrot and on the street from one side of my shop to the other. It has the factory tires no dry rot and about 90% tread on all 4 tires

I live very close to Dearborn. Funny story. I traveled a bit and looked at 6 TTA's before buying mine from a guy no further than 5 miles from my home. I wanted something that I wouldn't feel guilty driving. Truth is most of the other cars that I looked at were just too low of miles and too nice to be my cruiser. My original tires will be replaced tomorrow and we will see how my they look once dismounted (covered a little in another thread).
The rears are pretty worn out but the fronts still look pretty darn nice!
