C5 Coupe
I am very new to this forum, but have been a fan of Corvettes since I was a kid. My dad had before I was born and still has a 76 White T-top with saddle interior and 35k miles on it. I'll be on the C3 threads soon with pictures of it. Been on there doing some reading on the headlight up/down repair.
Anyway I'm probably going to sound a bit picky, but here is what I am searching for. I am looking for any C5 targa top coupe with black, blue, green, any darker grey or darker red exterior color. Don't really want anything too bright. Looking for it to have either black or grey interior. Fully optioned with HUD, telescoping steering wheel, passenger power seat, selectable ride control, etc. (HUD, telescoping wheel and selectable ride control are not a deal breaker). Also looking to find one at or under the 14k range with under 100k miles. I need to find something closer to me as well. I wouldn't be able to go to like the east or west coast to get it. Just too far away. I'm in northern Illinois. So if you got anything let me know. Thank you for your time.

That is a very nice one there too. Unfortunately that's a little bit out of my driving range. Thanks for the reply though.

I'm still in the search for a C5. I have been doing research and reading over the past year. I don't know if I'll make it to Bloomington this year or not. Got a lot going on. I am now looking for the following.
2001 to 2004 Corvette Hatchback (not convertible or Z06). Prefer black exterior. Most available options, like dual climate, dual power seats, heads up display. I could go either way with the selectable ride control, less than 70k miles and hopefully around northern Illinois.

Thank you. It took me a little over a year and a lot of looking online since not many around here to finally find one close enough and in good enough condition. I'm very happy with this so far. What a fun car to drive!
