That would be best. Economy here sucks and we had snow yesterday. Shipping is another option for the right one at the right price. The low KM on that one sure help the nice condition.

Good luck on your search.

A few pics of the new beast, 2011, 53km and in immaculate condition. A few subtle upgrades. Owned by another "car guy" who fussed over the car.

I love it. Lifestyle and territory changes forced the move from Corvette into something I can use as a partial, fair weather daily driver, and this fits to a t.

Young guy from Oshawa bought the GS. Super nice guy who drooled over my GS. Made me feel a little better letting that car go.

It's called Thunder Gray. I didn't like the rims at first, but they've really grown on me. I do have the factory polished rims too.

Was this the one for sale on Kijiji for along time?

I sold my C6 and bought a CTSV as well. Its funny as the V is faster and I drive it way more then I drove the C6.

In saying this I still loves Vette's and will buy another. But I am enjoying the "weeeeee" as my kids call it when into the boost.

Not sure how long it's been on there, but the owner said he got hardly any calls and no one ever came to see it.

I put it down to the way he worded his ad, it was a little condescending and harsh about the type of people he felt should contact him

Funny, because he's a really nice guy, and a major gear head

I used to fill up at Costco routinely. I got sick and tired of the line ups.

I now fill exclusively at Canadian Tire. Way more locations, no line ups, top tier gas and money back on my CT "E" card to use in store. I average $ 2-3.00 back each fill
