They weren’t painted. They are factory headlights. It was an option.

Very nice car I was doing the same when I found my GrandSport 4yrs ago. I was looking at C7’s when I came across a low mileage C6 3,000 miles at the time,, now at 14,000 miles.

So, what was the OTD $?
From a Chevy store/other dealer, or private?

You're in for a real treat, once the damned snow melts.
OTD was right at 38k. The car came with the original window sticker which showed a price just a hair under $78k. It is truly a beautiful car in person, which is what roped me in. I had no intentions of getting a C6, but the wide body, interior, and lights on this thing just looks amazing.

I got it from a guy that only deals in low mileage corvettes. His place is called Riverside Motorsports in Janesville, WI. I highly recommend Dave. He was great to work with and he only sells quality Vettes. I would have no reservations on buying a Vette from him sight unseen. I looked at several at dealerships and I would always ask them about the body/paint condition and I would explain over and over again how picky I was on the phone before driving to them. I was generally told that the body and paint are in excellent condition with no issues. Then I would drive there just to immediately find small dents, scratches, door dings, etc. One car that was described to me as pristine looked like a car got up against it and used the front bumper as a pivot point. Anyways, this car was truly pristine and the handful of other Vettes he had for sale looked just as good.

You have great taste in choice of year, model and color. This coming from a fellow Vette owner who has a 2010 GS crystal red vert. Welcome to the Forum; home to the most savvy individuals in the Corvette world! Enjoy! Bronk
