I'd say you could maybe get $20k out of it if you're really lucky. Most likely not though. 03's are selling for dirt cheap, and now that they're out of powertrain warranty it's tough to move them at any reasonable price, despite the low mileage.
If you don't have to sell it, I would say keep it and drive it more. Perhaps make it your daily driver. It's a good car that will provide you with a lot of fun miles. Either way I think it's a better idea than to sell it and take a huge financial hit, since these cars aren't exactly worth much these days.

Private classifieds like Cars.com, Autotrader.com, even post it on the classifieds section on here I'm sure you'd get a response. Avoid trading it in to a dealership because they won't value the low mileage of your car as much as a potential buyer would.Originally Posted by Nicholas Burke

And you might also try www.craigslist.com since it's free to post.
I have sold almost all my vehicles there the past few years. But you sometimes have to deal with idiot replies who didn't even read your full ad and extreme lowballers so be warned about that.

There's an 04 dark blue Sedan with a nismo front for sale right down the road from my place for under $9k. I'll have to stop and see what the mileage is on the thing.
Nick- You're lucky to have a G with so few miles. I would keep it and enjoy it if I were you.

Do you have any family members who need a car? Sell it to them for $16k and feel good about yourself that you helped someone out

Wow....'03 6MT Coupe with only 6K miles on the clock, ask $20K you can always come down. Hopefully you have kept it in the garage and it's in mint condition....you just might get your asking price!

Thank you all for your advice--dont know yet what I will decide--your correct --its covered up in the garage--its never spent the night outside--or been rained on--guess someone will be getting a new 03--thanks for all of your ideas---
