2007 c6
I thought i was going to go look at 02 C5 but my continued searching turned up a 07 C6 coupe base model with a 6 speed automatic. New tires and GM rims, oil changes up to date never in the rain with 30,000 miles. Just wondering where a base model which looks very cleen should be priced? The guy is very pleasnt to talk to and offered to let me drive his other Corvetts to make sure i get what i wanted.

Not knowing whether 1,2 or 3lt. Today’s market is tough. I would say that car is 25-28,000 depending on how motivated the seller is. Some price them higher just fishing I guess.

I have an 07' 3LT Z-51 automatic coupe with both tops, new tires and brakes, plus the oil changes and fluids have receipts. The color is LeMans Blue Metallic with 62,000 miles
I hope I don't jinx myself, but, I've never had any problems with it, at all. I wouldn't let it go for less than $26,000.
its in great shape.

There will be a sticker on the side or in the glove box that lists the RPO codes. Take a picture of it and we can tell you exactly what the car is and what desirable options it has.
I also like to take 3 minutes and run the serial number and mileage through Carvana and you'll know the wholesale price which I always find helpful.

I too started looking at C5, it was 02 3LT Yellow low mileage, was 22K, was too old school for me and had the really hideous bumble bee interior.
There was a 07 1Lt coupe auto with 4K on it showroom quality near me that was on consignment at a Ferrari broker that I looked at 32K
I drove an 07 1LT Yellow Coupe 6A with 17K very clean, they wanted 32k
I really wanted 3LT so kept looking, I will say most I have see in NE are about that price for low mileage.
I just bought 2007 3LT ,Coupe 6A , Mag Ride, 23K miles, clean carfax, new tires, Exhaust and Intake in MA
Paid 31 all in on Bill of sales technically 28K add in all fees etc, They were selling it for 32,900 I don't feel bad about that, I will say that I see here 2-3 to 1 vert to coupe for sale, wanted a coupe and auto...
Dealer fixed all the minor issues with it before delivery

What maintenance should be taken care of with 30,000 miles? I know to look for leaks and pull the dip sticks to look for clean oil no condensation on oil cap but obliviously coolant and brake and diff oil needs changed out, does these cars have front hubs you pull to pack bearings? I wrenched as a fleet mechanic for 25 years but no experance on a Corvette.

I have a '07 3LT, Z51 A6 with 33K miles Monterey Red. It is modified with the rear wide body black chrome wheels, American long tubes custom billet aluminum paddles and the wiring mod for the paddles to work like a normal paddle shift and engine bling. I am planning on putting it up for sale so I can move up to a C7 I will ask $28K

Just picked up an '09 1 LT base with 24K miles for $28K....car is absolutely immaculate. Makes 480 rwhp, C7 wheels and tons and tons of other add ons. Nicest car I've ever owned...you'd never know it's a base model.

Can't figure out how to insert the photo directly here. Used to use photobucket for hosting but they don't do that for free anymore.

Last year I picked up a 07 Z51 3LT A6 with 31000 miles on it for $27000. But remember that’s when prices were going up daily, anything nice was gone in a flash! You didn’t say the price so if you feel ok with it, that’s fine. Remember, check the date code on the tires, new tires could mean anything especially to the seller, Depending on tire and manufacture, $1200 - $1400 for a set easy. Ask the buyer about the harmonic balancer, did he replace it or not and physically look at it if you can for any wobble, depending on the tech, you’re talking anywhere from $800 to $1200 for that replacement.
Good luck on your venture!
