Default Sold!

Looks like the vette sold today! Anyone from the forum? I find it strange that it sat there all these days and 1 day before it sells. Coincidence? Perhaps. Anyways. On to the next one :-)

The vette is low miles for the age and the car fax and GM report says that is has got few work done on it under warranty.

The dealer is willing to make a good deal on it. I am just hoping someone who knows vettes well can test drive it or see it to give me opinion on if its a safe buy or not.

Appreciate anyone who is willing to help PM me. I am in the SF Bay area - tri valley area in the east bay region. (Dublin)

Thank you.
I just noticed your post. I'm the owner of the 2009 you are asking about. I live in Seattle, but will be in the Dublin area for work this week. I'm flying down on Tuesday and back on Thursday. I've owned 2 Corvettes and would be happy to look at what you found at the dealer and tell you my opinion on it. If the one you found is better than mine, I'll tell you that. I'd rather have you find what you want than lie about something.

I just ordered a 2017 C7, and traded in my 2012 C6 at Boardwalk. It is Supersonic Blue, AT, 3LT, 20K miles. I did Museum Delivery, and it is in excellent condition.

Is Boardwalk the Chevrolet dealer where you ordered your new C7? Or is it someone that buys used cars?

From the pictures and report it looks like a clean car.

Several years ago there was a member that wanted some help looking at a really nice C6 at the local dealer here in town. Since it was close I went and checked the car out for the guy. So many issues with this -nice- car the guy didn't even want the car after I took a quick look. Someone takes a quick look,it passes this simple test then take the time and have it inspected by a pro. You might want to keep this in mind when the next car comes up.

I'm asking 1000 over what my dealer is offering on a trade in. I KNOW
their selling price is going to be considerably over what I'm willing to sell for.
Raider, why are you getting rid of the C7? I remember checking it out at the bowling alley with another vette owner and you met us outside.

When is the car to be delivered? This is my new dream car. Hopefully in like 4 years I can upgrade. Im holding on to my Grand sport now until I can afford the other one. 2017 models in 2020/2021 would be somewhat affordable to me

Congrats on the new car anyways!
