Thanks for the input. Yes I think it’s a ok deal , I’ve been looking for about a month now. Also considered getting a newer model year with a more miles on it for about the same price. Don’t know which is more valuable…lower mileage or a year or two newer vehicle?
I’ll be using mine for summer driving on nice days only so I probably won’t add a lot of miles.

Sounds reasonable for a car with just a few miles.

Cost is reasonable and if it meets your needs and wants I would pull the trigger. Or you can continue to search for that ultimate deal that others talk about. Myself I would be a buyer and start enjoying it now as the deal is good enough. Good Luck.

Do you like the color and options? If you do, don't wait to long, someone may beat you to it. Good luck!

I bought a 2016 3lt Z51, Roadster, in 2020 with 16,000 miles on it.
I am quite happy with it. The only maintenance I have done to it are oil changes, added Android Auto, did the Tranny Flush, coolant replaced, differential fluid checked, Michelin Tires, and did the Magnetic Ride Upgrade.
I still enjoy the car as much as I did when I bought it. I do not think you will be disappointed!

For me 2LT trim level is perfect, no worries of the added leather delaminating as the 3LT possibility, and adds heat/cooled seats, heads up display, front camera on ‘16 and up cars, a few interior upgrades over the 1LT and a bit better Bose radio. Let us know what you find.
