Default SOLD -Father's Present for Someone - 2011 GS 4LT

****Sold! Thank you for looking!****


I have my Sting Ray picked out and decided to give someone a great Father's Day present. I've had her about a year, and haven't put much mileage on her. I am the second owner, I bought it from MacMulkin - it was Ron's personal car and meticulously maintained. I bought it from him when he got his Z06. I have the build sheets, etc. Sticker was over $71K new. I did just a few appearance mods to make her mine and like no one else.

She is perfect, just passed NYS Inspection needs nothing but a new home.

Ill have more detailed pics this weekend for interested buyers.

Local pickup in NY only or buyer to arrange for shipping.

Only serious inquiries please, no low ball offers...it's already priced more than fair.

Excellent car, excellent guy! My father bought his 06 coupe and it was perfect. craigster also sold me on his buddies z which was perfect.. (Both cars were bought sight unseen) Someone will be getting a perfect car exactly how it's described.

I have not seen the car in person, but I know the owner, and you will not find a more straight up gentleman to do business with.

The guy who bought his last Vette became a friend for life.

So buyer beware....you may think you are getting a great car, but you may also get a great friend as a free bonus!

Which frankly is worth more than the car.

I was with Craig when he picked this beauty up at MacMulkin last year and can honestly say its a real beauty..Knowing how well Craig takes care of his cars, the new owner will be getting a well maintained spotless GS..

I can't believe you're selling it!

Anyone thinking of buying this car, it looks like its encased in glass. It even shows the wet-gloss look in pictures. Its a flawless finish.

I doubt you will find a more perfect 2011.
The seller is as honest as they come.

That is a real sharp ride and GLWTS.What kind of glossy wax are you using? And do you like the MGW short-throw shifter? Thanx very much.

Thanks for all the replies and kind words.

The MGW is hands down the best shifter Ive used, and in my 06 I tried every other one on the market.

I dont use wax. The paint was prepped with Menzerna polish and then topped with Zaino Z5Pro Sealant.

Default Hated to sell it but Glad Craig got it!

I REALLY did not want to sell my 4LT GS but an opportunity to get a 2013 Z06 came along
and it was just too good of a deal! Like most of us who really appreciate our Vettes
I was THRILLED when Craig decided to buy my Grand Sport.

It could NOT have gone to a better home. It looks BETTER now than when I sold it to him.

I watched this baby go through the entire build process at Bowling Green. Absolutely phenomonal!

Here are a couple pics! ZERO Miles:



and 1st SIT at the end of the line:


As for a little "trivia" this was the SECOND GS ever built with Stick shift, and F55.
That was a NEW option back in 2011 and it included the new Goodyear Gen II tires.
I watched the #1 car be built while I was there as it was two cars in front of mine.
