FS-1996 Grand Sport #163 SW Florida
Its time for me to sell my beloved Grand Sport. It is #163 and came from the factory with red interior. It was bone stock when I picked it up from Rogers Corvette Center in Orlando in October of 2003. I believe I became the second owner and it had 32,970 miles on the clock then. I have since done some enhancements to the car and racked up another 14,000 smiles over the next 10 years and it is now showing 46,442. These have been very babied miles and I can say that the car has never seen inclimate weather while I have owned it. The car needs nothing and could be driven for along time with no worry of having to do any sort of maintenance to it. The car is located in SW Florida and I have title in hand an most receipts for all work done to it. I do not need to sell the car, but am relatively motivated to move on to something else as my interests have shifted over the past few years.
Asking $25K OBO.

I don't comment too much on here but this Corvette is just perfect...too steep for me price wise but I am sure its worth every penny...I love it from all angles. Someone will be getting a timeless classic...

Bump. I have my eye on another car, but this needs to go first so the motivation to sell has some what escalated. Make me a decent offer and you could be driving this all summer long.

Bump for the most beautiful GS I have ever seen! If I could have 2 new Vettes in the garage, this surely would be one! Fantastic vehicle
