the diffuser is a bit over the top, but otherwise lots of aftermarket upgrades on a low mile car.

When looking at the price, you gotta factor in the cost of de-uglifying it.

You'd have to wear a disguise to get it home.

43k in extras seems like a major exaggeration... plus those wheels are horrible.

I'd think the previous owner of that Vette is on the forum.. Lots of iffy questionable choices for modifications on that thing.

100k.. ?? How much is a damn callaway new?

It's a Z07 I think 3LZ, comp seats, CF dash, and automatic so it started north of 100k. Callaway is 18+ tax and options on top of that. Then you got an expensive matte Xpel, and last but not least, the weathertech floor mats

Don't ever say you've seen the ugliest wheels in the world till you've laid your eyes on these.

I prefer silver wheels on a vette, and to me black wheels are the easiest way to make a vette look ugly. That said, those wheels are hideous. Between the snowplow splitter and the rear bumper area trimmed in orange and the wheels, that is a one ugly vette.

Well, it's got a Corsa Exhaust, and while the wheels are not my taste, they are WXM Forged WEBx5 wheels from Weapon X come in at a whopping $7,200. The dash looks like it has the smooth leather, so it's 3LZ, and like another poster said, it's a Z07 Automatic.

So, let's break his math down -
3LZ Z06/Z07 8 Speed w/ Competition Sport Seats - $107,345
WXM Forged WEBx5 wheels - $7,200
Callaway SC757 Upgrade - $17,995
Corsa X Pipe - $525
XPEL Wrap - $6000 according to a thread on our fair forum
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...e-on-c7-s.html

That's about $32,000 in upgrades not to mention what the previous owner did to the Air Splitter. PLUS, there's a diffuser in the rear I didn't even count, so I think $40K is an honest amount for all the mods plus the cost of the car.

Honestly, I'd jettison the wheels and buy the car because it's a bit of a deal. Whoever sold/traded it in probably lost their shirt.
