I will agree that those of you saying find a C6 for 20 grand have not checked out a lot of used C6's. They all look great in pictures but in person a lot of them are pure junk. I saw a bunch when I purchased mine and a lot had misaligned body panels, horrible odors, incorrectly done modifications, curb rash everywhere, cracked rockers, etc. All of these cars were MINT in pictures.

Absolutely not what I meant. I never said all C6's for 20k are junk but to be honest a lot are. I have owned a few C6's and went out of state to pick up my latest one. I did sell an 08 in the low 20s with 75k miles that was close to mint not long ago. It takes time to find a good Corvette. All I meant to say is that sometimes a 2010 can be 30k, sometimes 20k. It does not mean the 30k car is overpriced necessarily because the 20k car could just be junk. Online numbers are sometimes hard to compare without evaluating the car in person. Sorry if you found that offensive in any way.

So anyways...
I decided against the vette from my original post.
I'm taking a look at this one tomorrow, they said they'd go down to 27950 as their best price.

I did, with maybe a bit of a chip on my shoulder, since I bought a really nice '08 for well under $20K. Thank you for your explanation.
For what it is worth, I would generally concur with your comment if it were limited to "for sale by dealer".
I try to buy private party for that reason, and the fact that the dealer does not know anything about the maintenance history of a used Vette, unless it is reported online.

It is noteworthy, though, that the last few times you have said something ridiculous, I did not respond by saying that you always do so ("any post"), or by replying solely because you said something ridiculous. I will disagree, or argue with you, but the point of any follow-on I make will be focused on the veracity of your comment, not the character of the person who made it.
Maybe that is our greatest difference.
OP, that looks like a very nice car. I am betting they will cut a good deal for you if you have all your finances in order.
