Default 2005 Corvette Convertible - Z51, 1SB

SOLD!!!!


Updated Price - $31,500

I hate to part with it, but I guess as one man's dream ends, another begins. I paid sticker on this car when new; that what the climate was like back then.

Current asking price of this car is $31,500.

2005 Corvette Convertible - C6

Loaded - Z51, Power Top, Navigation, Heads Up Display, 1SB option package; 6 speed manual

Rare color - Magnetic Red - only a few dozen convertibles Vettes exist in this color. It just simply glows - looks like Rubies sparkling in the light. I traveled 750 miles to pick up this rare color as the color was being changed right when the production of convertibles began.

Custom Stereo - factory Nav head unit, JL audio amps, speakers and subs. Sounds astonishing!

This car was featured as Car of the Month on a website (PFYC) and is featured in internet advertising for JL Audio as a model. It has won awards at Corvette shows including Reflections in Glass, the largest Corvette show in South Florida.

It drives great, looks great, sounds great and turns heads. It has 21,300 well cared for miles; I personally change the oil, wash, wax, and detail the car myself throughout its lifetime. I have never let a dirty rag touch it. I park it far from other cars, close to curbs whenever possible. Rarely do I let the dealer touch it; never a valet. It rarely sees rain; only when I get caught. On rainy days, and throughout most of the summer, I drive another car.

Come see for yourself!

The car is in Boca Raton, FL.

















SOLD!!!!

You're exactly right-it's a beautiful vette. Fly to Florida and drive her back to CA-wow what a fun drive home!

Regarding the felt lining on the interior of the rear hatch and the felt piece above the amplifiers, was that stock or was it added? If you added them, were they pricey?

The rear hatch was stock. The piece above the amplifiers was added; it's a good match but not identical. I looked at about 20 different blacks and grays (I'm not joking) at JL audio and elsewhere. This was the best possible.

Hey, AJD! I'm selling primarily b/c I'm taking the kids to school more and more on the weekdays, and with the family on the weekends. I'm finding less opportunity to drive it. I'm stuck with my A4 most of the time (pobrecita!). Thinking of trading to a sporty car with a back seat (yuch!). I may have to go something from Stuttgart, although it is against my core beliefs.

I do want to talk - I've got about 12 items on my agenda of things to chat with you about! Maybe I'll call one evening soon.

Ya, don't take it to the auction. I check the MMR, and based on previous sales in recent months, the amount you would get is between 26k-27k depending how clean it is.

I really hope someone on here wants it.

That's really low. A couple of dealers have offered me more than that; not only that, but with the tax benefit I'd be way ahead trading at those numbers.
