Basically I suck at life...... I'm strongly considering letting the car go to a local buyer though I may have scared him off. I've got a serious itch for a C6Z06. I'd love to have a low mileage well modded H/C/I, clutch, light wheel tire combo C6Z running low 10's in a car worth alot more in the long run. Though I love my car and its the first corvette I've owned. The car is absolutely fast and I'd like to run the car to its potential but I'm having these urges to move up. My car is built for nitrous and will only go faster and faster. Its built to take it all IMO. Just not sure... could just be a phase.

There is always going to be the need for bigger and better things and sometimes just different things, it's just in our nature as Men.. But you have to take a step back and look at it from the monetary stand point in these rough times, Of course unless it doesn't apply to you then by all means go out and fulfill your wish..
I just happened to realize that I was so far into my z that I didn't see it being worth getting rid of it at a huge loss to then feel this way again two years from now wanting something else. So, I decided to keep my z and I think I made the right choice.
A c6 zo6 may be in my near future, but not at the expense of my current 03 z.. I guess someday I'll owned them both.. Best of luck

C6s are amazing vehicles but there is still something I love about C5s.

Bruce, ritalin, you need to focus
c'mon what more is important than running 9's in a C5??
75k mile C6's are selling for 20-23k if you can find one, look at completed sales on xbay or your local auction
