Ahhh you weren't supposed to see this.

It's a bummer. When it goes, I feel like I'll be losing my purpose in life.

I'll be moving on to something different...though it will undoubtedly another corvette.

Anyone have any tips on selling a car like this?

I may have to KEEP IT

Default Price

No offense because I hate when people try to low ball others, but you want too much. I just recently missed the opportunity to buy a 1000HP 97 that had every modification done to it including motor trans and all the supporting mods done by ECS. It had only 5,000 miles on the mods and only 35,000 miles total on the car for $33,000. Obviously your car is newer however it has higher miles on the car and it seems it is just harder to sell a modified car in general. I am in the market for a car like yours however I know I can get something comparable if I keep looking for $35,000 or less. Please don't take offense because this is just my view on it. I have no doubt your car is worth every bit of the $45,000 your are asking. Godd Luck with the sale

James, there is a Corvette show this weekend in Marietta at Pioneer, and a all Corvette SCCA event at the airport this weekend. I would take it and pass the word that it's for sale, you never know, someone might bite. Let me know if you want to go to the show Sun, I plan on going!! Later...

Just out of curiousity, but why are you selling this C5 Z06 but would be interested in another C5 Z06? From the way you talk this is your dream car and you only owe $5k on it.

When does it start/end? Sunday is my foosball day, but I think I'd like to make it out to one corvette show before winter hits.

Thought I might like to start over with something different. Not sure what I want. It is my dream car, I won't be terribly upset if it doesn't sell, more than happy to keep it.

There aren't any TT cars with this much power for anywhere near $33k. There's one for $69k+ and an LPE car for $75k. Mine makes big power, is very quiet and streetable, and is in stupidly clean condition. I saw your post, I'm sure you'll find a nice SC car with the power you're looking for at or around mid to high $30s without too much problem. For the set up it has and the condition its in, I feel the car is well worth $45k...as does everyone else that sees it.

Like I said, I won't cry if I have to keep it. I love it!!! Thanks for the advice though...Good luck man.

You just have to stay the course if you want to sell it. If you don't HAVE to get rid of the car and this is a reasonable price in your opinion, stick to it. It took almost a year to sell my Z06 but I eventually got every penny that I wanted for it. Be patient if you have the time.

I'm sure you have close to $35k in mods on that car. Don't let it go for under 40k.
