Sold my Z06

Good things come to an end. Well, I sold my Z06 last night to a middle aged gentleman from Orlando, Fl. The guy was extremely happy and the transaction was smooth. If you remember, I was just buying it and selling it in a month. Turns out the car was soooo much freaking fun, I wind up keeping it longer, so it was out of the market for a couple of months.
Well, when I got the offer from this gentleman, I could not resist. Made a nice sizable profit. Especially when I have other priorities.
Hey, who could have ever thought... Chevy + resale = profit.

I know this is no where near a good as C6 Z06. But hey, fun it was. Sold some stuff on ebay for it. Still have the stainless steel front grille and owner's manual if anyone is interested.

In the future I will be looking RWD or AWD. As that is the way to go.








And pics from last night before handing over the keys. Damn did this ever hurt. I did not even bother to wash it. Ya-- that bad.

DAMN YOU!

HOW DARE YOU SELL THE BEAST!!!!?????

That would be all the car id ever need, i'd just keep swapping motors and trannies.

Glad you made out well however man, I understand how priorities outwieght the finer things in life at times.

At least you had fun with it, that's what matters.

Man... you have one sexy car paco. The GTO IMO is "more car" then this Z06 C5. Yhea, performance wise (stock), Z06 is the winner between the two, but performance is not always everything.

I know dude I know. But priorities comes first. Beside the guy bought it for exactly what I was asking-- no dealing. Meh one day I'll own a Vette again---mid-aged crisis--maybe?

Okay, name - Mr. Goodwrench, just sold a C5Z,

but wants a RX-8?????????????????????

(\insert extremely disgruntled look)

Am I the only person in the world with cut-throat loyalty to GM/ Chevy??


Anyways, nice car, I'm guessing you'll probably have another one someday since you had that one!

x3. I am only lucky enough to drive a regular Corvette. I'm glad you had fun with it when you had it. Sorry to see it go though. Good luck on the new car hunt.

Have a good one,

Fan I am. I find it ridiculous and stupid to be brand loyal, therefore I am not. When I go car shopping, I look for what will bring me more smiles for my money, not buy from X company just because it is X company matter how bad the product is compared to what is out there.
RX8 is on my tops cars if I were buying. Ya it may not be as fast, but the level of engineering on that car for $25K is great, not to forget it brings lots of smiles too.
