highly doubtfull with the number of c5's that were sold, unfortunatly they will not rise in price like the ancestors did.

lots of c4s sold, and they still cost more than 2500. also, a ton of the shark style sold (79 still holds the record I beleive) and they are going up on value as a classic. all in all the c5 only lasted 9 years. That is shorter than the c4 and c3s run, which means all in all, less cars.

All C5's are worth a minimum of $30k and their value always goes up. Buy now or be priced out forever! All of the owners that sell them for less are just stupid and don't realize that C5 vette ownership will be the dividing line between the poor and the rich elite starting in 2009!

30K only if they've only been driven once per year in the 'Tater Days' parade and still have the 'Magic' original factory engine oil!!
