Hey Guys!
I currently own a very nice SRT10 Viper which I think I will be selling this spring. With an expanding family and new priorities it is time that my summer toy becomes something alot lower in value. I have always liked corvettes, and seeing C5's priced in the mid to high teens makes them very appealing as opposed to going to something less capable but newer in the same price range.
I'm looking for a 97-04 coupe, low kms, with a manual transmission. Main plans within days of ownership will be a cam, heads, headers, exhaust, intake, gears and all the maintenance items. I'd like to have a 400whp summer driver, although it is not a daily driver car for me. More of a toy that could be driven Monday to Friday when the weather is nice.
My total budget for the car and mods will be about $25k give or take.
Just wanted to say hi and hear if anyone had any heads up or advice for me!
