Hello, I have been lurking on this forum for awhile and doing a lot of reading and I've decided I want to buy a 2002-2004 Z06, with low miles, and manual transmission. I'm partial to red with black or mod red interior, and possibly black on black, but may be open to other colors. I have been pre-approved for financing, and I'm looking to buy this month. Please message me or email me at daddieo@live.com with details of what you are selling, where you are located, and how much you are asking. I am located close to Sacramento, CA

Thanks!

All Z06's are manuals.

White only existed for 2001, but as you may have figured out 2001's are generally less desirable.

Daddie O

Thanks for letting me know! I've edited my post to remove white.

Might want to add your location, as well as your price and mileage limits. There are some pretty good buys on AutoTrader right now.

Daddie O

Thanks for the tip! I have updated my OP to reflect that I am in California.

I have a 2003 Z06 Black/Mod Red with 27,400 miles, clean title, and a few tasteful mods. I am located in Appleton, WI and my price is at $28,900.

I don't know if he still has it, but there is a black 2001 with 43000 miles in KC, MO for $19500.00. Beautiful car. The engine only has 7000 miles due to it eating a valve. Check out the KC Craigslist.

Thanks Dean, I think I see the one you are talking about with 85,000 miles on it. Way too high for me. I'm looking for something 40k miles or less. The less the better.

^ Sent you a pm

Dean2144

The one I looked at only had 43000 miles. I will see if I still have his number.

Dean2144

PM sent with his contact information.
I have video of it, so if you send me your email address I will send it to you..

Daddie O

Sorry Dean, I never received the video. I appreciate the responses I've gotten, but I am still searching!

Dean2144

The video must be too large to email, I have tried several times to send it. Just give him a call and if he still has it he will send you pictures.

I may have found the Vette for me. I am going to look at it on Friday. Wish me luck!

Did you find a car?

Daddie O

Yes! I found a Torch Red 2002 Z06 with only 8,700 miles on her. Absolutely bone stock. The car is immaculate, and in brand spanking new condition. She still has the new car smell! I took her to the local Chevy Dealership to be inspected, and after combing over the car for over an hour the service advisor came out and shook the hand of the seller saying, "Thank you sir for taking such good care of such a beautiful machine." All the fluids are in good shape. I pick the car up this Friday, and I'll post photos, though I'm sure you know what a c5 Z06 looks like stock The car comes with a car cover, a Z06 trunk divider, and everything that came the Corvette when it was sold new (ie owners manual, Z06 pen, tire pressure gauge, tire inflator kit).

If you don't mind me asking, what price did you get it for?

Daddie O

I probably paid a little more than average because of the super low mileage (8700 mi!), the amazing condition (showroom), being bone stock, the color combo I wanted (TR/BL), and the fact that it was a few hours drive from me in California. I paid $26,500, which to me seems like a good deal at about half price of what it was new and it is still like new. I still have school aged kids, so I will only have time to drive the vette on nice weekends, and that driving time will be split between the 'vette and my Honda Valkyrie. I will be lucky to put 5k miles on her a year. After driving her for 8 years I will only be at 48k mi!

That sounds like a fair price on a great car. Well done!

Next year you won't be able to write that, unfortunately. Stupid move by GM in my opinion.
