Default 2008 C6 Victory Red Auto Z51 3LT 39,000 miles

$1,000 PRICE DROP

I have a 2008 Victory Red C6 Corvette

Automatic w/ Paddle Shifters

39,143 miles (goes up weekly)

NPP Exhaust

3LT Fully Loaded w/ DVD/NAV, 8 way power heated seats, Bose Stereo

Heads Up Display

Fresh Oil Change

No Mechanical Issues Whatsoever

Z51 Performance Suspension Package

100% Stock

New Installed by Dealer in August 2011:

Complete Brake Job

Firestone Firehawk Wide Oval 500 RFTs

GM PAL ipod system

Total for this was ~$2200

It was owned by the General Manager of Milton Ruben Jeep in Augusta, GA. He paid it off, and decided to trade it in for a 2011 GS. I bought it in May of 2011. It was a gift to myself after a divorce. After loving and driving it for a little less than a year, I have decided it was nice, but a little unpractical for an Army SSG as a DD with a 112 pound dog. I can assure you he has never driven in it.

I can email a copy of the carfax. It lists a "Small Accident" in which the only owner's wife bumped into a telephone pole. There were 2 or 3 small scratches in the bumper. I can email those photos as well. He was the only owner. A dealership, when offering me a trade-in value, tries to tell me "it's a four owner car" because two other dealers had possession of it.

I owe $29,000 on the car. Bank of America has a lien. Georgia uses electronic titles (BofA told me today) so it would take ~14 business days to get a Georgia title. I will have the vehicle paid off by the end of March or April (waiting on a reenlistment bonus).

The photos speak for themselves. This is a 100% stock unabused C6. It was sunny so they could have come out a little better. The outside hasn't been clay barred for a couple months. The plan is to spend about a few hours detailing it for a local car show on 31 March to sell it there.

PRICE: $28,500

You can have the rest of a 100,000 bumper to bumper warranty until 2016 for another $2,000.

To answer some questions:

The car has the NPP exhaust (quiet below 3500 rpms, step on it and it sounds a bit like a rocket ship).

As far as maintenance goes I was told by the previous owner (General Manager of Milton Ruben Dodge Jeep) that the 30,000 mile service was done at 28,000. Aside from the $2200 in work done I mentioned, the only maintenance I completed from 29,xxx to its current mileage was a full Mobil 1 oil change/filter when the computer told me to. I have emailed the PO tonight asking for any maintenance records he can muster along with the scratches from the telephone pole due to his Wife.

I believe the transfer fee for the warranty is something along the lines of $40. I pay $112 a month for it. There is a $2,000 balance on it.

I have never heard the removable top squeak. The only thing I can think of is hearing noises whenever it was 20 degrees or less outside (no snow in GA) and I heard noises which I imagined was the fiberglass cockpit flexing because it was so cold, but could have been the top I suppose.

I have contacted the Rick Hendrick Corvette Dealership in Duluth, GA. They sent me a trade in value offer of $33,175. I have contacted them and will get an outright sale offer soon.

There are some scratches under the front bumper and a couple chips in the paint. The car was garaged every night, however, I drove it an average of four days a week since May 2011. I would rate the exterior an 8.5/10 and the interior 9/10.

PRICE IS NOW $28,500 FIRM and will be put up for sale locally.

If you want more pictures email or pm your email address. Thanks.

FYI, Kelly Blue Book prices this car at $31,815 in good condition with mileage and options. For "fair," it's $29,215, which is described as having mechanical problems, needing services, and may need tires and rust repair.
My vette has none of these issues and still beats the fair price...
