OEM C5 Filter $850!!!!??? LOL

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv...877806649.html

I have an original air intake system for a C5 Corvette, selling it for a low low $850. I called the GM service and was given an $1,750 estimate for the whole air intake since it's a original GM part.
I would prefer a local deal in cash. Checks have to clear first. If shipping out of L.A., shipping is your responsibility.
Feel free to ask any questions.

Thanks,

At that price for parts, I could part out my car and get enough to buy a new ZR1.

Hopefully a joke, as I saw the LOL. Will be lucky to get $50 for the POS OEM intake. I threw mine in the trash when I had a C5.

I'll bet the dealership quoted him an intake manifold, not an air filter box and airbridge. That may explain the discrepancy.

Ohhhh.....ahhhh....original GM Parts......do you have two I can buy?

I would prefer a local deal in cash. Checks have to clear first. If shipping out of L.A., shipping is your responsibility.

Ha Ha......I bet you would.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Yea....do you think someone would be that F*ing stupid.
