Default Is there a 2006 ZO6 out there for 55,000?

Or am I just kidding myself? Am I too optimistic? Or do I need to wait?
Seems the lowest I can find is 59,900. Any place I need to look? I'm searching here daily, Ebay,Vettehound, Autolocator, Craigs List, Classic Chevys.......

Sure if your willing to take a 20,000+ mile car and a car that needs money spent on it, tires, brakes, general wear & tear, road rash, nicks chips,etc. However thats easy to fix, it only takes money to make it a nice car. For $55,000 you will most likely get a car thats been wrecked or a buy back.

This may be true in certain cases but there have been a few very nice Z06's with less than 10k miles sell around $55k or even less lately.

When 2008 base Z06's are selling for $65k then it doesn't take long for the older ones to come down in price. In another month or two you will see many 2006's selling in the mid 50's. My guess is you won't see them dip in the 40's anytime soon but you never know

Not true. There are some on ebay for $58k in perfect condition with less than 10k on the clock & loaded. December/January will have some in the $55k range.

I remember seeing one on here a few weeks ago for 55K. It was red and believe it had around 10-15K miles on it.

you just missed this one, sold for 56,000 a few weeks ago. $55,000 will be easy to find especially with winter coming around.\

give Woodhouse Chrysler a call...1-800-898-1893, and ask for Bill Pemberton......they have several low mile cars in stock (Viper trade ins) and are willing to deal....the market is very soft on the Z06 right now....I have bought many Vipers and Prowlers from them and they are great to deal with....

The best thing right now is to find a auction buyer, tell him what you ae looking for , or if he is a friend, go with him and you can pick up some sweet deals. If you are patient, you will definetly find the right car. Good luck A friend in the area had his 06 Z06 advertised for about 4 weeks and did not sell and he ended up running it through Ocee Auction for $50,175 with 2200 miles. Guess he needed money bad

Thats funny I go to Ocoee every single Tues. and have never seen a Z06 sell for $50,175. I can see back for several months and nothing shows up. I look at sales reports every week and have never seen anything of the sort. If the car was a true NO HIT, NO BUY BACK, I would have bought it or too many Florida dealers would have bought it.

The cheapest one sell was for $52,000 and it had 29,000 miles and was beat the F!ck up. What date did this happen?
