Nice 'Z07' badge he's got there.

Wonder where he had it made....(probably got it here: http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb....~~~~~~0000050F )

And 753 were produced in 95. Not 49..

Unless his is '1 in 49' of that color..

No kidding! It's nice, but no way he's ever getting more than original list price for it. I think he'd be lucky to get 15K for it.

What is a "Grand am Corvett"?

What record is it on at the "Bowling green Corvette musuem"? 33. 45 or 78?

Where are these people from? I thought we did not find civilization on the moon. My mistake!

I hope whoever looks at the car brings along a Vette guy.

Stay in school, drink your milk and don't do drugs. Someone didn't follow all the rules.

Guys will be lined up around the block not to buy that car. Too many zeros in that price.

I think the asking price is way over, what it costed new. As for the money new C6 sounds better with warranty.

NADA says Clean Retail is $12,775.

If the mileage can be believed.

It looks like it could be a pretty nice car, but the price is ridiculous.

New 2013's can be bought for less.

I have a 95 Corvette Z07, which is based of the Grand am Corvett. It is one out of the Fourty-nine that was built.

That's some good stuff he's smoking

In late '94 I priced out a 95 vert with hardtop, 6-speed and Z07. It was loaded with everything except the run flats and power seats. Dark Purple Metallic with Light Beige seats.
I don't think it even came close to this guy's asking price. I never did order it as we bought a new house instead.
Looks like maybe I should have gotten it after all - I would have made money!
