I know a few have gone for under 10k...I'm wondering how good of a deal someone really found. No shame here...show off your high miles/salvage title...whatever...but show off your deal!

A little info how you found the deal and what you paid!

Reason I am starting this thread is I am thinking of buying a daily to supplement my Z06. I want a daily I can HPDE, do whatever I want to. I know of someone who spent 6800 on a C5 that was wrecked but cleanly repaired. I wanna see who found what deals!

Post them up!

Records in order

Sideswipe505

I spent a total of 17k on mine, trade was worth 7, financed 10, paying $163/month on it though with 2.49% fixed rate APR. Car has 87k miles and is in good shape, fresh repaint on it too.

djmlax89

Paid 12,950 for mine, silver '97 with 79k miles

stryderss

Free!!!! That counts right

$$$frumnuttin'

paid $37500 for mine....15 years ago...priceless!

Ohyoufan

I paid $9,000 for my perfect, 72,000 mile, clean title, fully loaded 1999 FRC. The only issue it had at the time was a broken glove box latch lol. This was definitely a family deal though. The family member I had bought it from originally purchased it for $13,000. I like it a whole lot better than my ws6 I had to sell to purchase this car.

Stingray_47

I traded a four wheeler straight up for my '99 blacked out, modded FRC with almost 200K on it.

ClipperFan

I just paid 11k for a 1997 with 125k miles. It runs great

schaffer C5

I paid 2500 for mine. It runs great and drives great. (parts needed to pass inspection, Oil pressure sensor)

Alex41

16K for a 2001 Z06 with 67k on it. Only financed 7K so with the 2.4% I only pay $153 a month. I pay 2 bucks a month less in insurance with double the coverage of my old TA too.

RC000E

Very interesting. Pics of car? What was the value of your 4wheeler?

2500! This sounds sketchy...you cant find a non running c4 for 2500 almost. Is this a legit deal or a family giveaway?

No..

MoEngineer

$16.5K '03 Z06 with 96,xxx. Passed inspection as it was.

I don't appear to be a record holder, just someone not bothered by high millage.

schaffer C5

Helping out a soldier. Needed to ger rid of it ASAP and he only owed 2500. It has 165000 miles on her and she is stock.

RC000E

^ wow...that's a SERIOUS deal right there....

So, you paid a NO bs 2500.00 for a C5 Corvette. You life long friends with the guy? Is this a realistic deal anyone could've gotten?

Sailors98Vette

16k for mine with 38k miles on it about a month ago...

Anthraxmm

$9300 2000 m6 197k stock have had it since june last year, now has 215k with vararam, ls6 intake, lg longtubes, and exhaust bypass and put down 353hp 354tq on a mustang dyno. no track times yet, will be going in may.

schaffer C5

That is right just in the right place right time. Waiting for the weather to get nice so i can get some pictures of it

wolf10851

if I had the cash at the time mine would have been 12k for a 2000 base model with 125k on it. unfortunately I was seriously upside down on my trade in so I paid more than that for it.

Here are a couple good deals in my area

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/3751906420.html

There was also a dark green 2001 with 160k miles for $8500 that sold it looks like.

Ive seen a couple for $7k last year.

Now if i can only find a 6 speed for that much, I'd have jumped on it by now. Oh well, Ill be patient.

Heres a nice FRC for a good price

You can easily clear this up. A bill of sale or something ? Or is that what you told the DOT you paid to save on taxes ? If it is legit , the sellers got rocks for brains.
