LS3 peeps ? Turn me to the dark side

You should buy it.

I should

Yeah, 15-20k. A lot of variables. I suspect they've bottomed out and in maybe 5-7 years will appreciate.

People will be nostalgic for simpler manual Corvettes and recovering from this CCP Virus crap.

This.

Today you can buy one with 20-50k miles for $15-19k which is absurd IMO.

Now is definitely the time.

I'm literally sitting at my computer desk right now trying to talk myself out of buying a c6z I found nearby just to try and bring some sense of normalcy back to life.

JUST GO BUY IT !!!

SHIT. I might have to go to the dealer and see what they can do for me. That other guy with the black one is pissing me off and non responsive lol. Then I ask to see it and he doesn't respond. I mean jesus people do you not know how to sell a ****ing car ?!?

 

[gimmie11s]

Yeah, thats the bad part about craigslist. Bunch of flakes or scammers.

Also try autotrader, cars.com, and offerup.

 

[BlckBox04]

there's a bunch of stuff on cargurus also

 

[BlckBox04]

someone already beat me to the punch on the one I had my eye on. these things are going to start flying off the market soon.

I thought I would weigh in here on the C5Z...

Last fall, I sold my H/C C6Z to put the money in an investment property.

I ended up buying the investment property AND found a nice, stock 01 C5Z with mod red interior an hour up the road from me for $9k... Yes, NINE.

I have enjoyed the hell out of beating on it at the track and slowly modding it into a dedicated track car! It is down from the power I was used to from my c6z, but is still very fun to drive! I plan to Ls3/Ls7 swap it anyway. Unbeatable value

Mine had mod red interior as well, great combo to have with Torch Red exterior!

Hell yeah brother!

What are your brutally honest impressions of it?

 

[nxhappy]

I LOVE this car. Reminds me of the Viper a little. Not AS violent but still raw. For stock it gets up and moves. I am REAL comfortable in int, and I'm 6 foot. I can't believe how quiet it is. I need exhaust ASAP haha. The clutch feels.....weird. Not sure ....it just feels weird ...but it doesn't slip or anything. The tires are old so it needs new rubber. Also I need a touch screen stereo lol. So far I love it ! Should be a good time.

Perfect color choice! Congratulations!

buy the tick master cylinder for the hydraulic clutch master...makes shifts much better!

 

[DSGCOBRA24]

****ing nice man!! What year and how many miles? The clutch probably needs new fluid. Use a syringe to take out the dirty fluid and add new fluid but I’ll take a couple cycles to get it all clean and the clutch should feel better

That is a bandaid, may help some for awhile, but replacing the master with a better unit is the real fix. C5s and Fbodies were notorious for it.
