Not at all, Quake 3's source code is GPL[1]. You can totally sell a game made with Quake 3's source, you just have to redistribute the source as mandated by the GPL. v{6}'s license is more restrictive.

The assets are a different problem. You can use the code without the assets and vice-versa.

Oops, I missed that extra clause, thanks.
