Default I need some help

Yes, I searched, but I don't have a lot of time to scroll through all the searches. I've had my 80 for 3 years now, and it has just recently become my DD. The problem is that it is in the shop more than on the road, so I'm thinking of getting an 05 vert with the Z51 package. Any opinions? What should I look out for? The one I'm looking at has 10,000 miles, any idea on the price? I wish I had found this site before buying my 80, but oh well. Any advice is appreciated

The c6 is one of the best cars on the market in my opinion. It rides like an expensive luxury car and has the power you would expect from a vette. I have never ever had a problem with my car that effects the driveability. (I had a problem with the window not going all the way back up but it only took 2 min to reporgram). As far as price for an 05 from what I can tell they are still around the 30,000 range and probably wont drop much below that. 10k miles is pretty low though so the price may be a little higher. But you cant get a better car for the money.

except on price. You can easily find a 2005 C6 for well under $30k. Make sure it's had its computer reflashed to avoid DBS, make sure the roof recall has been done, and make sure it's been cared for. Other than that, you should have no problems.
