If you want a modded Vette, you have to see this one!
SOLD
My rock bottom price $44,000 Updated on 5-29-10
Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xjhAj6XJsA
2008 Z51, Auto, black interior, 2LT, with NPP exhaust all factory. Car has received a Novi 2200 Paxton by East Coast Supercharging; it was there kit installed by them. They also installed the Meth kit, and A pillar gauge set up with boost and fuel pressure. It has American racing headers with high flow cats, the car will pass emissions. The car went 10.55 at 135 mph with that setup with one of the boys from ECS behind the wheel. Car made 579/580 through the auto. So I bought the car from the first owner when the car had 5000 miles, and then I sank some serious money into it.
I did a ECS stage 1 fuel upgrade, Z06 brake upgrade, chrome OEM Z06 wheels, new nitto invo tires all the way around( 345s out back, 295s up front), Oem ZR1/Z06 rear quarters, Oem ZR1/ Z06 front bumper cover, Oem front ZR1 fenders (which were $2000 a piece), LPE hood (only piece not Oem), custom blue devil badges (by Austin), had the entire car painted jet stream blue ($3600) because I wanted it perfect, and the top was painted black. What really makes this car nice is the fact that it has all the potential in the world, you can make a thousand horsepower with the blower it has on it now.
The car currently has 12500 miles on it. This car new cost $53,000, between myself and the first owner it has had $30,000 in aftermarket spent on it. Asking price is 48,000. I have had plans to forge the short block, have the trans upgraded, up the boost, and ease it out of the whole and run 9s on the 345 street tires it has on it. The Car is a 10 out of 10, I just won a first place plack at a recent car show. Car has never been smoked in, and is always garaged kept. I have really took care of the car, I have spent many hours cleaning. It looks brand new.
My cell is 870 565 6349 if you have any questions. I will get some better pics up this week, interior shots etc.

Reason for sale of this 700hp beast is the need I have for a truck. I wish I could afford both right now. If the vette sells I will be back in one as soon as I can. 
Something I forgot to talk about is the driveabilty. It drives like a stock corvette, you would never know it made 700hp until you get in the throttle. The car does have the mild to wild switch for the NPP exhaust.

Thanks for the compliments
The stock color is Jet stream blue, I was afraid the paint would not match. I had the shop paint the whole car. The car was disassembled completely and all the parts were painted just like the factory does. Jet stream blue is a 3 coat paint, unlike traditional base and clear. It is very hard to match, and it had to be perfect so this was the reason for the whole car being painted.
The car has the factory stall. The transmission has three passes at the track with me since I have owned the car. The trans is working great though. By the way I ran two 10.80 passes with the stock tires. Drove it to the track 1 1/2 hours away ran it and drove 1 1/2 hours home, and got 30mpg. I don't drive the car hard very much, no real need to really. Not to brag, but where I'm from there is nothing to race.
The supercharger I have is not near as hard on the trans as a Maggie would be. One of my previous corvette was a 2006 C6 that made 500rwhp/520rwtq and it was much harder on the trans than this car. Never had a problem with that trans either. Since we are on the subject of the trans RPM does a build that costs $1500 that will hold 800rwhp. I believe that's cheap to build the trans if ever needed though.
The trans is the only reason this isn't a 700rwhp car instead of a 600rwhp car. ECS stated not to push the trans past 600rwhp if you want it to last, so I haven't. With a simple removal of the restrictor plate (on the suck side of the blower)this car would instantly make another 100rwhp with another tune of course. The current power level is perfect for daily use though. Forgot to mention I drive the car everyday. But it is only 2 miles to work.

Sorry man, If the vette sells I'm going for a new Denali or Chevy truck. Thanks for asking though.

Here are some more pics, mostly the interior. The interior is black, for some reason the camera was making the interior look light. So I took a pic inside the garage at the end so you can see the interior is dark black. The cam was also making the car look lighter than it is, the blue is darker. The wheels on this car are perfect, no curb rash or anything else.
The car does have loyd mats on both sides and the one in the hatch area, I had two of them out so I could show you the carpet is perfect. Mostly just wanted to post these to show the cars condition.

Some PMs I have answered for people.
Is the car in perfect working order? YES
What do OEM parts mean? OEM parts are the same exact parts that GM uses on the corvette. The only aftermarket part on this car is the hood. OEM parts will always have better fit quality than aftermarket.
Has the car ever had any repair work at all from collision? NO
Does the car still have warranty? I guess that depends on the dealer since the car makes 700hp.
Was all the performance work done by ECS at their shop? Yes, all of the performance work except their stage 1 fuel set up.
Does the car have an air/oil separater (catch can)? Yes

Alright I'm getting serious about selling this car. A new GS Coupe or any other new corvette has nothing on this car for the money. This corvette it is a steal for the performance minded who is looking for a car that is just like a new one.
