Hi,

I'm seriously considering selling my baby after 10 years of ownership. The car is a 2000 Corvette with 140,000 miles, and has many many custom modifications done. For an 140,000 mile car, this thing runs and feels great. Alternator, Radiator, Water pump, Battery, Power steering Pump have all been replaced within the past 3 years. A leaking driver's side rear axle seal has also been replaced last winter. Here's a short list of modifications:

Exterior:

-Matte Antique Bronze Forgestar CF5 wheels 18" front, 19" rear on NT-05 tires

-Custom Black Powdercoated C6 Z51 calipers with DRM SS pistons, SS lines, Z51 rotors (will include a lightly used set of 2-piece DBA 5000 rotors as well)

-APR carbon fiber front splitter

-Carbon Creationz Carbon Fiber Diffuser

-Trackspec Motorsports Heat Extraction Louvres

-Custom made full carbon fiber targa panel (not an overlay, full carbon construction)

-DEPO Headlights (will include a brand new set with LED Headlights, never installed)

INTERIOR:

- Corbeau FX1 Pro Seats with Hardbar harness bar and Schroth Racing 6pt harnesses

-OMP Velocita Steering wheel with NRG 2.5 Quick Release

-Custom Carbon fiber interior trim panels

-Gutted race interior with matte carbon vinyl-wrapped floor

PERFORMANCE:

-Bilstein Sport Shocks with C5 Z06 Springs aftermarket rear bolts, front removed

-C6 Z06 Sway Bars with metal endlinks

-Borla Racing Axleback Exhaust

-Dewitt's Aluminum radiator with 160 degree thermostadt and computer tune

-Blackwing intake with Icebox surround and air fed through the radiator shroud

-Turn One Power steering pump

-3.15 Performance Differential



There are many things that I haven't mentioned but I will be happy to go into detail for serious potential buyers. Please note that the A/C system has been removed entirely.

Asking price for the car is $10,000 obo MANY more pictures available if interested!


and I'm located in Northern New Jersey. Please pm me for additional info

one of the coolest c5s i have seen. Usually the Depo lights dont look too god with the overal look of the car but on this one its absolutely perfect. the rims are amazing . If i had known i coulda got a c5 for 18k instead of a POS pontiact g6 for practically the same price i would be all over this right now.

Couple questions for ya.. Are the wheels powder coated or did you order them in that color? Also what is the car dropped on coils or bolts and how much of a drop? Thanks in advance.

Xavierbank

Question, do those DEPO HID Headlights come as a kit if so where did you get them from ???????

jd_black_00

Thanks guys! I really don't want to sell it, but I also really want a C7 haha

jd_black_00

The gauges were from a company called speed hut I believe, I can't remember bc I ordered them a long time ago. Took a while to install correctly but they've worked great for me

jd_black_00

Thanks for the compliment, the wheels are custom ordered from a forum vendor. The finish is brushed aluminum with a satin bronze clearcoat over it. The car is dropped on bolts, C5 Z06 springs with Bilstein sport shocks. I'm not sure how much it's dropped from factory, but I've got less than 4" clearance between the wheels

About 5-6 years ago the DEPO lights were all over the internet, but they've stopped making them and now they're hard to come by. I bought mine on ebay for about $300 and upgraded them to HID

DriveHard

Can you possible PM / post better pictures of the interior? What was you purpose for building this, specifically gutting? I'm about 2 hours away in PA and would possibly come take a look.

Thanks

Ive included pics of the door bottoms and trunk lid where they usually rust first..So no rust,,dents,,dings anywhere..The body is as straight as an arrow..The car sits on 18x10 &18x9 staggered AMG Chrome Monoblock rims..The wheels have no curb rash and the tires are brand new!!The car is lowered on H&R lowering springs with H&R sway bars and Koni adjustable shocks which allows you to select firmness..It handles like a Porsche..The headlights and foglights were upgraded with a 6K Depo full Xenon kit...This included the full headlight housings..Not just the bulbs..All lights work as they should..People stop me all the time to ask me about the car and compliment it..Most people cant beleive its an 02..It truly looks stunning..


Interior--Just like the exterior,,the interior is in awesome shape also...The Black leather seats have no wear..The carpets are free of any stains anywhere..The headliner is clean and does NOT sag..The original E55 mats are even in good shape.All the controls work as they should..The radio has been upgraded to a JVC CD/MP3/IPOD player...There is an Ipod cable already ran neatly into the console..You can control your Ipod from the radio hands free..It has Bluetooth and links with your phone to talk hands free through the hidden mic on the sunvisor..It also has an extra USB port,and a fully functioning back up camera.Mounted on the windsheild is a fully functioning dash camera that is hardwired into the ignition.This means everytime the car is started the camera automatically starts recording in full color 1080P with sound along with GPS coordinates..Also installed in the ash tray console is a very expensive gauge called an Aeroforce Scan gauge..This gauge allows you to read every single engine perimeter in real time..It scans CEL codes and erases them if needed also.It is a full time on board computer that tells you everything going on in the engine..The gauge cluster has no bad pixels and entire gauge cluster was converted to a full Blue LED kit..


Mechanical-- With having just 78K original miles,and relentless maintenence,,the car runs awesome..The motor is a fully forged 5.5 Liter V8 pushing out 349 HP..It has been run on Mobil 1 full synthetic oil since new.The transmission was just serviced at 65K with a full pan drop and fluid exchange using genuine Mercedes fluid..This was a complete trans fluid change..Not a partial...The coolant has been changed every 30K miles with genuine Mercedes Blue coolant..Last change was just a few months ago...The engine pulls hard and strong..The transmission shifts like butter...There are no CEL or warning lights lit on the dash at all..There are absolutely no leaks,,no smoke,,no overheating,,or any running problems at all..You can sit in traffic with the A/C on all day..Car just passed real NJ inspection and is ready to go anywhere..Very reliable!

I can tell you Im confident that this is the cleanest Mercedes W210 AMG you will find in this area..They are all rotted out and beat with well over 100K on the clock..It took me 7 months to find this one when I did as I am very selective...Mint,,extremely low mileage,,upgrades,,relentless maintenence...This is the one...Asking $12000 or interesting trades for other vehicles....Again this is not a fire sale so dont contact me with stupid offers..It can be seen and driven in S.Plainfield NJ anytime on most weekends...PPIs are welcomed and even encouraged..You will not find anything wrong with it..Clean Carfax as well..Interested people can contact me through the link here..I wont list my phone # due to spam calls..
