the surprising part to me is that a 70 something mile 2006 coupe will close 20, are the z06s really dropping that fast to get within a few thousand of a coupe?[/QUOTE]

That car was TMU

I'd love a z06, but I doubt that'll happen any time soon.
Especially with c5 owners getting dumb and trying to charge $25,000 for their c5 z06.

racebum

isn't that lulzy? i have seen two guys recently that have 65k mile mile 2002 z06s that are probably worth 16s and they are asking something silly like 24.5

there's actually one c5z on ebay now that sounds like a good driver.

also a no reserve so it should close reasonable

idahoblkss

just be patient OP you'll find one. more and more are coming up for sale lately and getting very reasonable . ive seen numerous c6z's in the mid to low 30k $ range now and i can only imagine whats going to happen when the new C7 is released .

philly07c6

i think the c7 has already reflected th eprice drop aas its been floatin around for a yr now

Audacious Nick

But it's not even available to drive and there's already been a drop. It dropped further with the ability to preorder. It will likely drop further with the release, once dealerships stop charging idiotically-high surcharges.

The big drop with the Zs will happen when the C7Z is released. Thats more than a couple of years from now. Till then. . . the C6 Z06 and ZR-1 will be kings of the road.. . . . .

It's idiots like these:

$23,000 for his 78,000 mile C5.

Why does he have to be an idiot? Every car dealer in America does what he is doing and people buy cars every day. I submit the real idiots are the buyers that pay the crazy prices!! Why not mark it up and bargain from there? If he listed it for 15k there's no wiggle room. Don't be so quick to judge.

Audacious Nick

I'm talking about people thinking their car is worth more than it is.
And marking up by $6-7,000 is just silly.

I saw a 1500 mile 2011 ZR1 go for $75,000. Considering what a new one
cost...

racebum

i have to agree here. the biggest idiots are the people paying 20+k for a 14-15k car

we have had two 2002 z06's both in the 60s for mileage and both sell in the 16s in my areas. nice clean garaged driver cars. at the same time folks asking 24k for the same car might be thinking it gives them room, but, personally speaking, most the time i just never contact them.

if someone said my bottom line is 16.5k i would be like alright, let's go over the car and price would never be discussed more as they know the value of what they have.

Hello all! What a great read this thread has been - I have just started looking for a 2006 C6 and am really surprised at the variation in asking price! It really is hard to figure what is a "value" deal!

Around here, there has recently been a 2006 C6 (red) with about 60,000 km (37k miles) for $34,000.

qwik150

OMG..34k for an 06 w/ 60k miles. Where are you located? I could have made 10 grand on mine ...damn !

sct1984

I'm near Toronto - but those prices seem to be pretty consistent throughout Canada unfortunately.

keep in mind 60,000 KM, so 37k miles. I haven't been able to find anything less than $25,000 but those have more than 150,000 KM (96,000 MILES).

My only option I think is to buy one south of the border. I was hoping to do a trade though up here.

I have a lemans blue 07 6sp with 20,800 mile new tires like new will take $26,000 firm.
In Gaffney S.C.

Audacious Nick

If there are any ls3 models, I would be willing to spend $25,000.

BigGoals

The post says FIRM, absolutely ridiculous, judge away.

To OP I am looking for a C6 also, best of luck.

mr.6.0

I just purchased my clean title 07 6 speed vette for 21.5 with 43k miles. keep looking and you will find what you want took me a month of searching every craigslist in the US for it

racebum
