A few months ago I posted a thread with a budget of 35k, now I have 40k to spend. I prefer black, Nav doesnt matter, around 30k miles, can have mods. Let me know how much tire and brake life is left. Thanks!

your probably still short on the cash to want 08'+ with that kind of mileage. You never know though, good luck in your search

I didnt put the thread up here for people to tell me im short cash. If you have a car write me or pm me.

Perhaps not short on cash after all...

USCPTM

kpride

he is just saying the usual market value is a lot higher than that

doesn't mean that you cant get lucky though as I wish anyone who wants a vette to get a good deal

for most of us its our dream car.

This ^^^^

I really hope you find one

Wow, Great find!

Great find. I thought 3lz had two tone leather on the top dash. Hope it checks out. That is about what I paid for my 08 back in early January privately w/same mileage but 2lz (42k). Fair price!

If you can wait a little longer the 08 will be flooding the market soon.... Just hold out......I cant decide on a 08 z06 or 11 cts-v coupe its driving me nuts z06 cheaper cts-v coupe more but easy to upgrade and has back seats " I have two little ones" just in case.

Not necessarily two-tone, but a 3LZ should have the leather dash and door panels. The one pic of the dash isn't clear enough or big enough (at least on my work computer) to tell.

USCPTM

how long of a wait and what do you think the prices will be like?

Svre46

Thanks for clearing that up. I just have not personally seen an all black 3lz dash.

I wouldn't wait for the few grand people say it "may" drop. If you find a good one get it and be happy. I did in January before the c7 release and still got a great deal IMO. This was back then people said to hold out due to the C7. I live in Chicago and couldn't even drive it but I could look at it in the garage. I have no regrets and all you are doing by delaying your purchase is spending less time with an awesome machine.

Here's my 2012 TR/Ebony 3LZ. Luckily I saved the dealer's pictures from their website after I bought the car, but before they took down the listing.

Very nice. I think the OP found a good deal. I don't think he can go wrong.

Spring summer around the corner. 08 with low miles for 40K ? Good luck with that find. Not saying you won't but big time patience will be required. Having 40 for an 08 seems low but I have seen stranger things.

Good luck with the hunt, sometimes its not the destination, it the journey thats fun. Have fun looking for the car.

I would wait until at least the stingrays hit the floors. People will let loose and buy dropping the prices or they will hold on to them not changing the price at all. I thought about saving my money until then unless a killer deal comes my way.

Now there's this out of Dallas http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/atomic-orange-zo6-z06-corvette-coupe-2-door-chevrolet-race-vette-/261203373909?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item3cd0ef2f55
There's certainly interest on the part of some (current owners) to hope the values remain stable, but the reality is that with the C7 coming soon, they're going to keep dropping.

"Race Vette" in the title. Drag radials on the back. 2 strikes in my book. Seems like a very hard 35k miles.
