Default 2006 Victory Red, Convertible, A6, Z51

My daughter was accepted into The Ohio State University Psychology department and I have decided to focus on paying for her degree. I bought this in March of 2016 with 24,xxx miles from the dealership that sold it new and serviced it until the owner traded it in on a new one. The car is completely stock and has no engine, transmission, or body mods...just like it rolled off the showroom floor. I'm looking for $23,500, but will listen to reasonable offers. I have been on several long trips and never a hiccup, engine light, stumble...anything. This thing has been nothing but reliable.

3LT
A6
Victory Red
Z51
Miles – 35,200
NPP exhaust added off of a 2008 - best of both worlds...open for great sound, or closed for that road trip with the wife.
Navigation with the latest disk update
Power convertible top
Heated seats
HUD

Transferable Chevrolet Warranty - until 7/26/19 or 50,487 miles - bought from Denny Menholt on this forum. Everything on the car works as it should and no issues that I’m aware of in any way. That said, this will provide a little piece of mind having a couple of months and plenty of miles to drive the car. I can’t imagine an issue that I haven’t identified, but heck, anything mechanical can break.


Harmonic Balancer was replace with and ATI at 25,116 miles - so you will never need to worry about this again.
All new drive belts, ac belt, and timing cover seal when the balancer was replaced.

BF Goodrich G-Force Sport Comp II's put on at 25,327 miles - around 60% left on the tread.
Ceramic brake pads put on at the same time I had the harmonic balancer replace.
Antifreeze flush and fill the same time the harmonic balancer was replaced.
Brake fluid flushed
Air and cabin filters all new
New Delco battery when I picked it up in March of 2016
I'm sure I will think of more later, but I wouldn't hesitate to leave tomorrow on a trip of any distance.
All receipts from the dealership where the car was serviced. The previous owner was meticulous.
Clean CarFax.
Clear title in hand
35 miles north of Cincinnati, Ohio
Any questions just send me a PM for my cell number
Thanks for looking!

Willing to listen to offers if you feel my price is out of line. I don't get offended.

I wish the timing was better for me, pretty much what I am looking for. I need to sell my Z28, then there's the miles between us.

Great price for a lovely car...................just bought one a month ago, so unless you want to do a part trade for a 1998 l'm out, but GLS!

If it was available a year ago when I was shopping, I’d have been all over it. GLWS

Actually you were. I was hell bent on getting a C7 and listed it last March when you sent me a pm. In the middle of me listing it, a family member asked if they could buy it. Unfortunately, his wife did not feel the same way, so I kept it. Fast forward to now and my daughter has been accepted into college and her field of studies will be at minimum 6 years. We were fortunate enough to stash away 4 years of college expense, but we want to pick up the entire tab and let her hit the world running. I'll be back in a Corvette some day, that I promise!

That is very generous of you to pay her entire educational expense but it would probably be much better for HER if you let her participate in paying for some of her education thru a loan like millions of other students are doing...it helps in the development of financial responsibility...no offense meant... but she can still "hit the world running" and will appreciate it when looking back on the total experience.....parents do their children a world of harm by not giving them a bit of tough love...again...no offense meant ...just saying...

About you having to sacrifice your Vette...ask your daughter if that is ok with her.......

I hear you loud and clear and certainly subscribe to that school of thought also. On the other hand, an education is the one thing in life that I can give her that nobody can take away short of a brain injury. When I leave this world, this will be one of my proudest achievements.
