Default Selling my C5

I have a 2000 rebuilt...hard top, 6speed...original owner put 900 miles on the car before wrecking it.....bought it and have put 73,000 miles on the car and am now trying to sell the car in order to buy a new C6. What do I need to do in order to sell the car and get a good price for the car?

Fill out your profile, and then head to the C5's for sale and don't forget to post pictures of the car.

As far as price, your probably looking at 18-20K. The reason why is that it you mention that it has been rebuilt and thus most likely has a salvage title.

Selling it will be a hard deal. You could try ebay, or the autotrader.com as long as you're upfront about the condition of the car, and document the work that has been done, you'd stand a good chance to sell it.
Good luck with it...

I live in Orlando, if you'd like me to take some pictures and vouch for the condition. I'd be more than willing to help.

Thanks Chris....I purchased the car from the Corvette Shop & Supplies over in Tampa....have been doing business with them for almost 20 years now....don't think they would sell me a bad car...I would give anyone their number and they can speak to them about the car.
