looking for a boosted C5 (SC or Turbo) $27k MAX
If you have a built/boosted C5 that you have considered selling this might be of interest to you. This is not for me but a close friend of mine is not a forum member and I figured I would do him the courtesy of helping him in his search. $27k max to spend but $25k and under is much better. Z06's STRONGLY preferred. 6 speeds are a must. Must be a ZERO issue car. Not looking for a project or a fixer upper whatsoever. Needs to be streetable and have working air conditioning. All colors will be considered. No cars over 50k miles. Don't tell me I can't find what I'm looking for in this range because there are dozens....yes dozens and it's a buyers market. Please pm me if you think you might have something that fits the bill. Cash ready to go immediately. Location is not an issue but the closer to SC the better

almost had me....just rolled 90k, its my DD
but for giggles here is my car for consideration
would like:
22,500
my car is a 100% daily driven monster and built to handle that. i have every receipt for all the work and parts in this car which totals over $45,000 and no, by no means does that mean its a trailer queen and cant see the rain. all the good stuff is under the hood!
i have the car set to run a light methanol tune(1 gal last's 2 weeks) and even if it were to run out the car will not explode( ie the car is tuned for safety not all out max)
with that said it made a conservative 673rwhp 638ft lbs
have done a couple track passes to see where it was at best run 10.8@131mph
now the part list:
ENGINE mods:
-Lingenfelter 427ci ls1 with darton sleeves destroked to 387ci(all bore)

OTHER mods :
-HID fog lights
-Tinted tail lights
-baer 2pc front rotors
-full JL audio sound system
-semi-gloss black paint
19/20” cray scorpion wheels
drag pack on, way better grip
the reason im parting with it, im military and have been stationed in south GA for 5 years and can drive my car year round. i have just got orders and im afraid i wont be able to daily drive my car anymore, and i need something that can. this car has taken me back and forth to my home in ohio a couple times and to new jersey and back with out one hick-up.

Safety Car
If there are dozens... Yes dozens... Then why the need for this post??... You should be able to pick and choose exactly what you want!
#6
The answer to that question is quite simple.... Because not everyone that has a car fitting my criteria that they are willing to sell has it advertised. By creating this thread I've opened the door to owners who don't feel like posting and ad and would rather just deal with someone whom they know wants what they have.... And can actually follow through with buying it. Crazy huh

Safety Car
I've sold and bought enough cars that I've learned if someone is serious about really buying a car he will do the searching around himself without having friends intervene... $50 no sale results from this post.
#8
What's your purpose in this thread again? The last 2 want ads I've placed resulted in sales.

Oh, my bad, he was hoping for ALOT less miles, for 25k, whodathunk? Good Luck finding that ride!! It`s out there!!
#10
People are haters haha I'm sure he is looking for cars as well as posting. It's a buyers market sellers will flock to buyers with money so why not take advantage and have them come to you?

There's a car on here, I believe the title is "99 frc 22k". On my phone or I'd link.
It's got a new LSX motor in it, under 5k. And like 20 some odd on the body. Built for boost, but not boosted. Still in your budget if you did, and wouldn't need to worry about someones turbo issues. Probably the sickest Vette on here in my opinion. I want it. Lol
Goodluck!
