Still better to have posted in the C5 section, since it is a C5. But that's probably not the end of it.

The mods would prefer you not to advertise for a non-Forum dealer. However, since you seem to only be trying to help other forum members, they'll probably just edit out the dealer's name and lock the post.

But we appreciate your trying to help other forum members.

Maybe the OP was being sarcastic. $25K to $27K would be more like it, according to Edmunds.

I was trying to help no one it was an email i received that i thought was funny give the price. i was simply sharing not advertising. wow everyone is a little touchy. i also believe i said name withheld, did i not?


OK so i thought it was funny a 02 Z06 with 60 some odd thousand miles on it for 30 some odd thousand dollars. a dealer that i contacted a year ago for a price on a new C6 sent me this email now. hahah.

i was only sharing. please no one spend this much money on this car. as it would be a very bad deal IMHO. are there any other disclaimer i need to note?

i was only sharing something i thought was funny.

sorry to all

You did state that in your post, but the name is still shown in the link. You could hide the name by structuring the link like this:

[ url=Click Here]http://bla bla bla[/url] (remove leading space)

The only place that car is priced to move is to the auction, when it doesn't sell for that insane amount of money.....Different story if it actually had low miles on it.

I was trying to be kind and give you some information you might not be aware of. Why provide the link to the dealer's website?

If you're going to be that touchy about someone's KIND response, you might have a tough time here.

Edit your initial post to show some rolling eyes or a funny face. I missed the joke initially.

What's even funnier is that this dealer is selling an '08 for $5,885 over sticker.

hmmm....I guess more than one person read it as something less than "kind". You should take a couple chill pills before reading messages here Jim. Good grief.
