I actually wasn't crazy about Silver when first shopping for a Z. But the more I looked, the more I think it's one of the best colors for the C5 Z06. It goes perfectly with the stainless front grill vents, the rear brake ducts, and the speedline wheels...not to mention the FRC body style. It really makes those details pop with the color contrast.
I personally really don't disagree.
Lots of fish in the sea, but few great ones. I don't mind giving one of the very few cars I see as a GREAT find a bump for the right owner (and I am super picky).

I have always been a huge fan of a silver Z. I started with a black one...brutal to keep clean. The silver is clean even when it's not. Great car. Bump.

Thanks for the kind words! The quality of the previous owner(s) of any used car tells a great deal about the condition of the vehicle.
I looked at this car in person during my search for a pristine C5 Z. I live on both coasts but wanted to keep a fun car in NJ and the owner was very accommodating in showing me this vehicle.
It is immaculate. I really couldn't find anything wrong. I'm crossing over from the watercooled Porsche world due to a recent 911 price bubble and Corvette people really know how to take care of their cars.
While I didn't have this car on the lift for a full suspension check I can safely say that it is one of the cleanest C5's I have seen in a very long time. I spent at least 30-45 minutes checking everything.
I searched on both the West and East Coast for a perfect C5Z and I was ready to pull the trigger on this car when an absolute steal on a LS3 C6 Z51 fell into my lap and I had the cash to swing it.
This is my first post and I know this might look wrong but I located this car on this forum and wanted to post an honest opinion about it. I have absolutely no affiliation with the seller.

Thanks for the kind words Vlad. It was a pleasure meeting you. Good luck with your new carl!
Been getting a lot of interest on ebay, which I find strange. I think the pictures have better resolution here. Also, this community should appreciate the nuances of this car more than the average ebay buyer.
Yes. But, the difference is, you will get lowballed here.
Good luck with the sale. A beautiful Z in excellent condition at a very respectable selling price.
Hopefully this article will get some folks' attention as to the desirability of these Corvettes! Check out auction prices on the right column......some excellent points in the article.
