C5 and C6 prices?
Wow. While I was searching for more C5's, I came across an 05 C6. I was amazed at the price. It has 59K miles, listed for $24K. It has a clean 1-owner carfax. I had no idea that C5/C6 prices are overlapping THAT much already. The C6 even has navaigation/heated seats (but I don't like C6's so I don't know what are standard/optional).
Is it the economy or what?

^^Probably will. Can't see it not having an effect. The drop in C6 prices have had a profound impact on C5 prices although I imagine they will begin to level out some like C4 prices have.

Two things are affecting prices of both C5s and C6s. First, the bad economy has driven down prices due to buyers being reluctant to spend money and lending institutions not wanting to loan money. Also, prices always drop during the winter and rebound in the spring. My son, who owns a small car lot, told me that he saw a 2007 red C6, with 5K miles, sell for $28K at the local dealers auction. There are some fantastic deals out there if you have the money and really want to buy. However, it is not a good time to be selling.

Not surprising at all considering how depressed the car buying market is. Sounds like a good buy to me.

Don't feel bad boys.
I just bought a 2005 Lexus that listed for over $70k with 17K miles on it for $29K. Now THAT is some major depreciation.
I never can understand why anyone would buy a new car.
