Thoughts on a VIS Report
A fellow forum member was kind enough to run a report.
It looked pretty good but the following concerned me:
06/04/2007 047243 # N0110 - BATTERY REPLACEMENT 16494 miles
06/03/2007 M76555 # Z2080 - ROADSIDE SERVICE (TOWING) 16000 miles
06/01/2007 M73406 # Z2083 - ROADSIDE SERVICE (BATTERY/JUMP START) 16000 miles
04/02/2007 042414 # Z2137 14960 miles
04/02/2007 042414 # N0110 - BATTERY REPLACEMENT 14960 miles
Looks like the battery was replaced twice within 2 months. I am thinking that this may indicate some type of an electrical issue? Any thoughts?

You didn't say what year C6 it is and it's not in your user profile. The 05s were bad about DBS, and a few of them were caused by the owner not always shutting the manual tranny cars down with the tranny in reverse.
Also, it does take a few miles and a few minutes of driving pretty regularly to keep the battery built up.
If an owner adds some electronics that is putting a drain on the battery because of not shutting off completely, that's another problem.

I asked the buyer about the issue and this was his response:
"The battery was replaced because of battery cells issues."
The heck does that mean?
