Default How much a vette like this..

I have been thinking about buying a cheaper high mileage c5 6 speed in addition to my cobra. Found one at a local dealer 106000 miles m6 silver.
They asking 13500k. How much a 03 vette m6 worth with this mileage in a good shape?
Thanks

Don't buy it; you'll never drive the Mustang again.

I will never drive a Terminator with 481rwhp after driving a stock c5?
Don't see logic in your words at all.

Well, I was just joking with you; the smilie was supposed to give it away. However, the handling of a stock Corvette is night and day different from your "Terminator" ewww, scary. I came from a '01 Cobra ( no termination required) to my '02Z, so I know the different driving dynamics. BTW, 481 RWHP in a Mustang is not the same as the same amount in a Corvette. I had more than that when my Z was just H/C.

Well i just called them and they said it was an auto, even though it was listed as 6speed on their website. Auto and corvette don't go together IMO so I'll keep looking.

I would buy it if it checks out. But I personally would never pay more than 12K for car with over a 100K on it. There are other cars with less miles for around the same price. Just because it's newer than say a 99 doesn't make it worth more, when you consider the mileage factor. IMO
