Default F/S 08 Z08 JSB 2LZ 8500 miles ex condition - 37K Firm

F/S - 2008 Z08 (2LZ Jet Stream Blue with Black/Titanium interior and stock silver wheels). I am the original owner (ordered new) and the car is pristine with 8500 miles. The tires are original and probably only have 40-50% tread life remaining (this is typical for the OEM Goodyear tire). No mods. No mechanical issues. VIN: 1G1YY26EX85125671. Pics are attached below. There are no large scratches or paint chips on the car.

Note the car is is in MN. The car is in great condition just not perfectly cleaned or detailed at the moment. For those of you who live in a cold climate who do not have a heated garage you will understand . I've also attached a picture of the weather & road conditions here at the moment. I normally drive this car May 1 to October 31 (giver or take a few weeks) but did take it out to put some gas in it and took a video for those interested in listening for any mechanical issues (there are none).

I will honor my 37K price I suggested in the prior edited version of this post. However, this price is firm as it is more than generous.

Thanks for your interest.

Bob

Bob, good luck with the sale. I think $40k firm is a good number. I have a 2008 JSB Z06 also and am thinking of selling it for a new Z06 also. But I think I will wait till '17. Where in MN are you?

JSB is a very popular color and they stopped making it in 11.. Widebody versions are starting to be hard to come by in good condition with low miles.

Your car is probably worth 40 being a 08, the miles and color. As you found out in the 30's you got a lot of response.

Last year I sold my C5 in one day. I had a bunch of response in that 1 day it was for sale. What I knew though was that I bought the car a year earlier with 7,000 less miles for the same price. At that time the car was for sale for a little while which meant to me that it was really only worth what I paid for it as he had it priced $2,000 higher than I paid for it. My asking price is what I got for it, I didn't move on it even though the new buyer tried to get me down.

Great color, lovely car. Fair price for miles and age IMO.

Hi everyone, the car is tentatively sold to Robert in CO pending inspection. I will update if for whatever reason the deal does not materialize. I already regret selling this car but I do not have the room for another car in my garage at the moment.

Thanks,

Bob
