This is my first Vette. I really love this car. However, I'm going to Afghanistan in Sept. and rather than keep it in a garage and let it depreciate for a year while I pay for it and not get to enjoy it, I decided to sell it and get ZO6 or GS when I get back from Afghanistan. This car runs great, sounds awesome. The exhaust is loud enough to turn heads, but quite enough to still enjoy driving on long trips. With the mods, I still get 32 mpg on cruise at 70 mph. The car was always garaged, never slept outside in the rain. The car has never been on a 1/4 Mile Track nor have I ever raced it. The new wheels and rear tires were purchased on July 15, 2010. There is still 11k miles left on the GMPP Extended Warranty that is fully transferrable. It also includes free oil changes. Both go to 60k miles.
Even though there are mods, the warranty still works. I've had a harmonic balancer and oil pressure gauge covered and the mechs and warranty people were fully aware of the mods. The car is located in Sierra Vista, AZ. I'll happily drive to Tucson or Phoenix for serious inquiries.
Please call for any questions. Brandon - 832-236-7719

Yeah, post up that video 
I'm personally not interested (I can get past the red because of the darker shade, but not the automatic) but it can't hurt to add a video. GLWS.
And you're SO close, too
oh well, ttt

I used to think the same about the automatics until I actually went and test drove the paddle shift. I loved it. My next one will be a GS Auto. I'll get the video up as soon as I can.

Super car & a give-away price!
IMHO, your best bet is to place it on non-Vette sites. Most people here are way too cheap (except when buying mods for their own cars) & always looking for low-ball deals. Auto Trader, Craigslist, heck, you'd probably have a better shot of getting more $$$ and a faster sale on eBay than here. I surprised nobody posted telling you exactly why your car is overpriced, and that they saw the same car with less miles and more/better/fewer mods at auction for $10k less.
Good luck!
