Sell me your car before the end of the year to save on property tax!

-2LZ or higher (Nav is a plus).
-No paint work or history of any kind please.
-1 or 2 owner cars are ideal.
-I would like to find a car in the Midwest if at all possible do to the weather.

I know it's late in the season and most have put their cars away. But if you have what I'm looking for, I am willing to pay market value, I'm not looking for the deal of the century just a fair deal for both parties.

Thanks,Seth.

PM's and Emails returned. Thank you for all the leads. I have a couple cars of interest but no done deals yet.

If you have a perfect low mile car you want to sell, now is the time and I can be your guy.
Cash buyer.

One final thought, I am amazed by the lack of knowledge of the LS7 heads issue. I would have thought by now everyone knew about it. Surprisingly, a third of the PM's and emails I have received know nothing about it or believe their car is not effected buy it.

I sent you a PM last night and checked with my father to make sure he would sell it. He said yes, so give me a call if you'd like to hear more.

It was nice talking to you. Thanks for the reply.


I'm still looking guys. Doesn't someone need to sell their car to pay for Christmas expenses?

Can I ask with the amount of low mileage Z06's available how is it that you still have not found one acceptable ?

Maybe state no cars over 10K miles or no cars without heads fixed.

Seems to me that a lot of cars have been offered, the only thing I can think of is that your asking for super low miles, heads fixed and want to pay very little to get that kind of car.

I look here everyday and you don't get finer examples than those on here, especially a 2009 with under 300 miles.

Good Luck to you, but I can only imagine why your not in a Z06 already !!!

No problem. I knew someone would ask.
To be respectful to those who have replied here and by PM I will be as vague as I can.
The main issue with "most" of the cars that replied is that the miles are over 20,000 or they have had mods done to the car without Head work. I can't get a warranty on those cars.

For the few others, they are NOT a 2LZ or higher or for the one car that had 6,xxx miles on it he will not go below $45,000 for an 06'.

The 09 with less than 300 miles was for sale for months here on the forum, if I wanted that one I would have purchased it when it was much (he added clear bra and other add ins) cheaper.

One last thing to add, I am very picky, even more so than the average Vette owner and we have a reputation in the car world as being very picky!
I own a Detailing Company here in St.Louis and have a very (too good) good eye for things that are neglected that most don't see.

I want a Pristine car. Especially if I am willing to pay for it. Please.

Well I guess I would have bought the 09 when it had 40 miles on it as it sold for $48K IIRC.

You will probably never see that again.

As far as prices, the lower the mileage the higher the price, as far as warranty, I think having one on a car that is not driven much is a gigantic waste.

Spending $1000's on a warranty so that you can look at a car and wax it and drive it 100 miles a month is insane, what is going to wear out and break when you only look at it ?

Anyways, good luck

Thanks, warranty is for piece of mind. A few thousand dollars is worth it to me.

I certainly know lower mile cars are worth more. IF they have been well taken care of, not all are. I assure you of that.

This is my hobby, I could argue Golf or Gambling or Drinking for that matter is a gigantic waste. We all do something for leisure. This is what I do.

I would imagine that you have OCD and that can be a great thing........but at some point there is no car other than a brand new one with warranty that will satisfy even the most picky owners.

I used to be that guy, now I am the guy that buys these to drive them, not look at them, I cannot take them with me and owning them and not driving them is a waste.

I Golf, I Gamble and I Drink......all are vices and all luxury's.......I have two Vettes and am looking for a third.........and I know how you feel about waiting for the right one, I waited to find a 1 owner 2013/vert with only 1358 miles......I have been looking since June of last year for the "ONE" and it was just delivered to me on Sunday

Not OCD, but close. There is no happy medium there.

I'm not looking for perfect, I know it can't be if it's used. Shoot, I can and have picked apart new cars. I've owned many...

I just want someone's car who treated it like I treat mine. They are out there it's just weeding through the rest.



Please don't be afraid to send me info on your cars guy's. I've owned (5) Vettes among many other cars over the years. I can be satisfied, Especially if your car meets my criteria.

I am also a cash buyer. Once I get the right cars info we are set!!

Thanks again.
Seth

Your too picky to be in the used car market. Go order a new one.
