I like it. Looks to be a pretty clean car from what I can see. They have had the car since 9-13 according to the carfax and it is a 3 owner car. I would of course offer lower. It looks mostly stock which is what I like when I am buying. No tint, stock intake, stock TI's, stock wheels. 
Be sure to let us know how it goes when you look at it.

Its a fair price, it does have most of the optional things offered on that year Z06. Memory seats, dual climate controls, body side moldings, everything but the mod red interior.......which every Quicksiler Z needs

Fair price without seeing the car in person. Looks to be missing the lic plate filler panel on the front bumper. I'm sure you can find one, or install a Halltech tunnel port if you go with an intake.

I would do no more than 21k but the price is pretty fair, and for some reason that vette looks lifted haha seems to be sitting kinda high for some reason, in the front especially must be the picture angles. And I agree if you can hold out for a mod red interior silver Z thats what I would get if I could do over my vette color choice. Black is just annoying more than anything an the mod red interior

It's way overpriced. The average dealer retail price for a 2002 Z06 with 30K miles is around 19K. Enter your zip code to get a more accurate pricing report for your area.

I read the same thing on Edmunds when I bought my Z. The problem was I could not find one for the price they stated. At least in my area (Northeast). Every car I looked at was 3k-4k over what Edmunds and Kelly said. I must live in the wrong part of the country. I am sure in Texas you could get a cheaper one if you wanna ship but I wanted to see it with my own eyes.
My point is, if you like it and are ok with the price, go for it. These cars do not dissapoint.
This car looks clean and in good shape. For me, I would try for 21k. That seems like a good price to me.
Good Luck. Let us know how you make out.

Edmunds' data is consolidated from sales prices, not asking prices. You can choose to believe what you like. The last 3 vehicles I purchased, including my Z06, I obtained for the Edmunds' TMV price or just below.

This car buying method works exceptionaly well in California. They practically give Z06 Corvettes away at the dealerships

I recently purchased my Millinium Yellow 2002 Z06 from the original owner in the SF bay area. 24,000 miles. 100% stock. All service records maintained at local Chevrolet dealer with 7 year extended warranty. Original Window sticker. Brand new set of Goodyear F1 Supercar tires and alignment ($1900 receipt). Excellent condition inside and out. I paid 23K cash and haven't looked back. One of my best purchases yet!
Hope this info helps you to make your offer. Tires are expensive so keep that in mind. Best of luck to you. Let us know if you make the purchase and post up some pics!
