Should he get it ?
My boss found a C6 convertible with 13 miles on the car, auto everything including top, F55, HUD, NAV, at a dealer in So.Cal, after negotiation, price is $5K under MSRP (I didn't think that's possible on the '06 verts, but I was there). He told the dealer he's going to decide late tomorrow. We want to know if he should jump on it or pass ? I know the prices of the new '05 are dropping below MSRP, and I am a little surprised at this deal.

It's a fair price, If he likes the car...buy it! Sometimes you can get too involved in finding the "best" price, and all you might be doing is wasting time when you could be out driving and enjoying that new Corvette.

Thanks guys. He does not want a manual (he won't admit it, but I don't think he knows how to shift 
) and coming from the likes of Lexus, the Z51 will be too much for him relatively speaking. He's writting the check today, maybe he'll let me break it in for him while I'm waiting for my ZO6 to arrive.
