One on the left is an 08' with Z51 option so yes on the brakes. One on the right is an 05' so no GM chicklet - think they started in 06'. The colors are identical, but the interior is black/tan in 08' and tan in 05'. What is hard to see is the 05' has Corsa and 08' has bullets.

Are you sure the color codes are the same? I don't think they made the same color red in those 2 years (except victory red)

I think you win the prize -- 05' is Magnetic Red Metallic 2 / 08' is Crystal Red Metallic
Really looks like the same color!

Think you might be a little color blind, they definitely look like two distinctively different shades in the pictures.

One is parked legally while the other one is not (at least in some jurisdictions).
I only noticed the chicklet.

I was going to say the same thing, they look nothing alike in color.

They appear to be the same length. I wouldn't have guessed that one is 5 feet and the other is 8 feet.

The 2005 on the right is for sale and yes, I can now see the color shade diff. Thinking my asking price of $19,500 is too high. I'm willing to move the price down, but my wife argues it has new tires, brakes, and the TSB for the reverse lock out just done. How have you sold your Corvette in the past? Is it even worth seeing what the dealers would give? I'd be willing to consider an offer, but have not had any yet.

Check out this one at Shelton, been in inventory for 30 days:

Yours is probably $2000+ too high if a GM dealer can't sell his similar one with significantly lower miles for $19,995.
And your Craigslist ad needs bettter pics, and more of them. Maybe spring for a $2 Carfax and post it in your ad?
