Not saying what I paid. Basically it's a new car.

What do you think it's worth?

That's a nice very low-mile find! I can't believe people don't drive these cars more.

Anyway, congrats!

It's worth what you were willing to pay for it, I always look for low mileage cars, and am willing to pay a little extra for that.

Nice Find.

I wouldn't worry too much about what you paid for it assuming you can afford it.

People asked me why I paid so much for my Z06 but it was literally the perfect car for me. Everything I wanted, down to the correct interior for me in the exact mileage range I wanted.

Once again, have fun returning to the corvette world!

its only worth what someone will pay...I always overpay for something I really want...so spill the beans and stop teasing us...

BTW...to sorta answer your question...I would have paid $$35,000 for it if I wanted it and I am serious!!!...
