I found a 13 427 1sb

It has 40000 miles front and back tires are wore pretty evenly. Car looks great tires are needing to be replaced due to dry rot. They are asking 47,900 I just like some advice on what people think. They are offering to replace all 4 tires with brand new.

What do yalls think is a good price.

mileage and condition, as well as color, will impact pricing ...............

that is a great price if the car checks out, even if they did NOT replace the tires................

pictures are a must too.................

Good friend of mine in TX just bought a '12 base model vert for 28,000. Car has 52,000 miles and zero issues. If that helps any.

Carlinsatx

Kind of helps but base and the 427 are on either end of spectrum. I have seem some good base prices

looks like Cyber Gray no optional wheels, splitter or skirts................ MSRP was 75K+ without any options or fees.............. you may want to take the VIN to any GM dealer and have the run a VIS report on the car.............. will give you build information, any warranty or GM dealer service history and dealer's will do this for FREE............. if it checks out, well worth the price.................

I've got it I'll check it in morning


Do I go to service department?

rkj427

try Service first, but even the sales department can get you the information.............

good luck and keep us informed what happens!

A 400 mile 427 for $48k? GO BUY IT NOW. Literally, that's a steal of a price. Gove them money now before someone else realizes that this basically brand new car is so heavily under priced.

^ A sign of the times?

Sorry fixed it. It changed to 400 supposed to been 400k. Sorry I didn't see that

Check the Kelly Blue Book and NADA prices. If it has been on the lot a while they may come down on the price. Make sure it's not a salvage or reconditioned title - which could be the case if it was flooded or stolen. Best regards

No my tablet changed it. Supposed to been 40k. It's a 1 owner car no damage or accidents. And no title issues

Add $2500 for new heads

Because ls7?

If it's made it to 40k miles without heads, I think it will be fine. The dealer has a method to listen to the valves to determine if they're in spec or failing.

At 40k miles, that price isn't as great, it's not bad, but not a crazy outlier deal.

You might want to go over to the ZO6 section and do a little research about valve guide issues. Dealer is full of BS about the listen to the valves part.

Ask them to print both VIS and build sheet. The heads might have already been addressed...

I passed on it. Sales lady won't leave me alone now. I'll wait for a lower milage one. Found a few in the 20k range of milage for almost same price.

Good for you my Corvette brother! Looking is half the fun anyway. I don't know if you're aware of this, but you can create accounts on cargurus, autotrader, and cars.com for free. Enter the car, price range and distance you desire and they will email or text you every time a car is listed that fits your criteria. Best regards
