Default Cheap C6 somethings wrong (maybe)

Dont know what to say about this but wow thats cheap. Let me know if anyone sees anything I am not seeing. Or is it one of those too good to be true deals. Just cut and paste the whole website I called and the salesman said its a clean title never recked car. I might go check it out.

$30K for a baseline 05 is about right where it should be.

Wow that is a good price and if the 05s are in this range than C5 prices will be going south, but that is ok with me as I am keeping mine

Unless it's got a salvage title, you'd better but it!

Jor888 I agree that is true but they wouldn't use a vette as a bait vehicle I mean its really hard to switch a vette buyer. I can see a mini van or a regular sedan as a bait vehicle. I called the salesman and he said car still there title is good and never wrecked. Thing is I know where the dealership is at its in the inner city. Usually shady dealerships there. There were a few that were shut down due improper selling practices. Anyways the tan interior is such an eye sore to me so I will wait to get my color of choice (blk on blk). Black book on an 05 base vette auto is 33.

a buddy bought last week a 2005 M6 pretty base. GOtit home detailed it in the sun.. saew the bumpers didnt match! researched the car heavily and found it was wrecked... bought out by insurance.. fixed.. auctioned .. bought by the dealer.. who told him it was a "one owner car".

technically only one person owned it! He made them take it back and swap for a different 05 on the lot.

He paid in the 40's though...

Good thing you didn't post this in the C6 section..cause someone
would there would jump on this car...low..low miles...pictures
are very clean inside and out..still under warranty so
you aren't taking any chance buying it.

Agree that the price is actually where it should be...but
seems most private parties want $36-38,000 for this car..
not that they ever sell at that price though..

I am not ready to give up my 02 C5, but I am interested to know if this is for real. Please give us an update when you find out more.
Sounds to good to be true.

A month ago, I was ready to get another vette.........my first chioce a C6, vert, 4000 miles, dark blue with tan top, $44,900, my next choice was C5 AE, vert, 8200, $37,800, both cars checked out thru carfax, I felt both could be a little lower in cost, but I decided to get th C5, I still think I made the right decision.........

That does seem a little low. But not much we are trying to sell our 02 Z and its hard to compete with the low C6 prices out there.

Hey believe me, I am a C5 fan. I recently looked at a 06, but was not really that impressed. Plus my wife loves the C5 versus the C6, so end of the story. Glad to see you went with the C5.

Looks like it could be a hell of a deal although the dealer probably doesn't know Corvettes that well as he has the Mag Red color listed as "Amber."
