Hello from Bavaria
Hi, everyone.
I am from Bavaria in Germany, i'm 25years old and im trying to find a C3 BB Corvette. Maybe i´ve luck and some day i´ll be a proud owner of a vette. It really sucks, here in Europe we don´t have that much Vette´s to buy.
Greetings and
Markus

Welcome to the Forum!!!!!!!
You may have to buy one here in the US and import it, especially with a C3. Best of luck.

Welcome to the forum, I am working with a frenchman that just bought a C3 on ebay. He lives in Grenoble, With the euro so strong it could be a good idea and in France there is no homologation with a vehicle that old. Good Luck!

Hi Markus and welcome to this forum
A good C3 BB has it's price!!
It's always good if you can take a closer look at it.
To import one is worth a consideration because of the exchange rate.
I'm sure you'll do the right thing and this forum is exact that what you need.
PS. Bavaria isn't so far from my hometown.

Welcome and the other members are right. With the difference in the exchange rate you should be able to pretty good even with shipping and import fees.
