Default Black 08 3LT 6spd

DEPOSIT RECEIVED, SALE PENDING!!


Haven't had this car long and would really like to keep it as it's just an amazing car that gets more attention than I ever figured a vette would get; however, school and life may be taking a major turn soon and I'd really not have something like a car payment holding me back.

Like the title states.. it's a Black 2008 Z51 C6 3LT 6spd with Black and Red interior.

VIN: 1G1YY26W285103530
Mileage: 40,700
Transmission: 6sp manual
Engine: LS3
Trim: Z51 package, 3LT with black and red leather, embroidered seats, factory navigation system
Power: 445 rwhp / 436 rwtq (LG Motorsports, 5/22/10)

Modifications:
G5X1 cam
Vararam VR-SC1R
Comp Cams 921 dual springs
Chromemoly pushrods
LG Pro Long Tube headers and 3" Z06 X-Pipe
Cat deletes
Borla Stingers (Z06 model with 3" pipes)
ASP Underdrive pully
160 degree thermostat
LG Bilstein Coilovers
T1 swaybars
MGW Shifter
Exhaust Tunnel Plate for sound deadening.
3M protective film on front of car and rear view mirrors

I'm the third owner. First owner had all the work done by LG Motorsports.

Sell price is $32,000.
Car drives amazingly and feels just like they do from the factory. The sound is absolutely amazing as well. I have basically only driven this car to school and back for about 3 months now. It's in absolutely immaculate condition and any potential buyer won't be disappointed. Since I purchased the car I have kept it garaged, washed and waxed routinely as well as kept the interior spotless. I rarely have anything but water in the car to drink.












Some photos my brother took of the car recently.







NO TRADES, NO I WILL NOT DRIVE IT TO YOU (too much of a risk and I'm not putting extra mileage on it just to get to you and you back out.) AND DON'T LOWBALL.. LOWBALLERS WILL BE IGNORED.

Very nice vette, with tasteful mods too! Anything out of sorts that would explain 3 owners in 3 years, with a fourth on the way? And did I miss the location?

Sorry, Im in Springfield, MO.

Not sure about 1st owner but the 2nd owner had to move out of country so I bought the car from him and now I just feel it'd be the most responsible thing I can do being that Im still in school and if I am able to move for my remaining college courses, the last thing I want is a car holding me back from that.

Thanks,

Both tops? Any body damage history? Has the clutch been replaced/upgraded? Tire condition/brand. Beauty. GLWS

I'm not sure what you mean by both tops. It has the lexan targa top if that's what you're referring to.

No body damage or accident history. The car is pretty much immaculate aside from some minor micro swirls in the paint but there's probably only a handfull of them right now as I had it buffed and polished right after I purchased it.

The tires have quite a bit of life left on them, the fronts are probably around 80%+ tread life and the rears are probably something like 60-70%. They're Nitto NT05 tires. Rears are 285s and the fronts are 245 I believe. In my experience, every set of Nittos I've had have lasted a long time, in comparison to other types of performance tires. If the car is driven normal (no burnouts/sliding around) I'm sure they'll last for 10-15,000 more miles. I haven't done a burnout in ANYTHING since I was 16y/o and this car gets driven like I'm driving Ms. Daisy.

I have researched prices for these tires and there are a couple sites online that offer them for between $200-250 a piece. Not bad when you consider the factory runflats are about $500 and get no traction!

Corvette coupes (obviously not including the Z06/ZR1) are available with three different ordering options regarding targa tops: painted, transparent, or one of each. He wanted to know if you had both. Apparently not.

Ahh.. yep definitely the transparent one. I didn't think I'd want the transparent top before I bought the car but I don't think I'd have it any other way. It's a very neat feature, especially at night.

BTW, for those who aren't familiar with the red/blk interior in these cars.. it's a much darker red in person than it is in these pictures. For some reason photos make it look like a bright red. Might be the flash or something I guess.

BTW, I believe I've found my next car, an 06+ GS300. If someone owns one and would consider trading, hit me up as I may be interested. Really just wanting a white or black one with black leather interior.

I wish I had known about this when I rolled through your area a few weeks ago. Very tempting...must think for a bit.

Well let me know what you decide. I doubt ill have this sold before March but if it does I'll be ecstatic. It's hard to move sports cars in the winter.

I remember the original owner installing an aggressive G6X3 cam that made some big HP and then at a later date taking it out and going w/ a smaller G6X1 cam for a mild ride during daily driving. Never the less, the labor/tune and parts that went into this car are TOP NOTCH from LG here in Texas!

Although, I do have to ask...has any additional work been done to the car after you purchased it?
