Default For Sale - Le-Mans Blue Commemorative Corvette C5

Hi Everyone,

My family now has two Corvette's and it doesn't make sense as the majority of the time only one gets driven so I've decided to sell mine and let my dad keep his one! However one of the main reasons is I'm importing my old car from the UK to the states and that will be my DD. It'll be a shame to sell her, but our garage space is tight as it is.

It's a 2004 Corvette C5 Commemorative model in Le-mans Blue. The car has been garaged all it's life and the paintwork will show this. It's in excellent condition. Convertible top in great shape. Inside is clean. A few small mods have been done, nothing major.

- Haltch Cold Air Intake
- Magnaflow Rear Muffler
- Chrome "Corvette" side entry Trim
- Aux Input on Factory Bose Stereo
- Front Fog light meshed Insert piece
- Drilled/Slotted Front Rotors replaced yesterday
- 18"/17" C6 GS replica Wheels with Falken Run Flat tyres - Fronts replaced not so long ago, rear's half way of there life.
- Bilstien Shocks all round
- Subwoofer Install - Can go with car depending on price and individual preference.

The corvette is high millage to some at 188,000 but has never skipped a beat or let me down. Me and my dad take care of it ourselves and find it's a great car to work on. Recently the Starter has been out, refurbished by myself and put back in.

It has HUD and the majority of other options you expect. Clean car inside, no stains on carpet and looks brand new. Out of the entire car, the only minor cosmetic issue is the drivers seat has noticeable wear on the bottom. See pictures below. Passenger side in great condition.

Price - was $14000, now $12,500 negotiable . Really need the garage space for new import on the way.












































Sorry about the dark interior shots - Will get some tomorrow along with the new Rotors.

She drives very well and as I'm typing this I am trying so hard to think of the negatives about this car and there's just none. Really a car that has to be seen in person to appreciate how much myself and the previous owner has cared for this car. Please PM me if interested and feedback is welcome about the price.

Like I said above, it just doesn't make sense having two corvette's. I gotta admit, the drive way looks awesome with them!

Beau

You have a very nice car, great color combo...but...with 188k miles I personally feel it's priced too high. I'm often wrong when it comes to pricing cars, but if it helps I just sold a torch red loaded coupe with a 100,000 less miles for 12 grand. Felt it was fair both ways.

I think since the C7 came out prices seem to have dropped although there's still a wide range of prices on the market.

I'll leave it as that for now and if there's any serious interest I am willing to negotiate the price. Thanks for your feedback though!

Good way to look at it...you can always go down, but you can't go back up! It's a nice looking car with the right options. GLWS

Default Blue Car

Hi, I've had a couple of high mileage C4's, so I'm not shying away from close to 200k miles. It's the price, of course. Sounds like you've had a ton of fun taking care of the car (both of them), and that's the way I like to keep my vehicles going. I'm a buyer at the right number, as I just sold a 2003 black C5 convertible, but looking for blue. My number will have to be $9500k. If you are interested, please let me know.

Hi Laurence, thanks for the interest in the vette. At the moment I am in no rush to sell the car, especially at that price. To me, I feel it's worth around my asking price. Good luck with your search!

At this point I would prefer cash. The only real car I would think about trading it would be a challenger. But feel free to let me know what you've got, the worst I can say is no...



MASSIVE PRICE DROP - $12500.

I really need the garage space for a upcoming import.
