1998 Corvette, Silver with Red interior. As a former Corvette Shop owner (I retired last December) I frequently ran into good deals and this is one of them. I bought this car about a year and a half ago from the local BMW dealer who took in as a trade-in and then called me to give me the opportunity to buy the vehicle wholesale. Why would they do that? Because I have a friend that works there and this car has had around $5,000 spent on it prior to trade-in and it would be a shame to just wholesale it. I bought it on the spot. Since then, I have put less then 1000 miles on the car and repaired a few minor problems.
Prior to trade-in -- 4 new Pilot Sports, new ZO6 Calipers, New slotted Rotors and ZO6 Titanium Exhaust. Additionally, the stock wheels have been chromed. I repaired the radio and the driver's sport seat.
Everything works and the car is fully equipped with selective ride control, sport seats, glass top (only), power windows, door locks and seats. AM/FM CD radio, intermittent wipers, cruise control, cold AC and dual climate control. No chips, cracks or stars in the windshield. MPG is about 30 on the freeway if you keep your foot out of it.
The tires have less than 1000 miles on them still look new. The car runs great and I would not have a second thought about driving it to New York tomorrow. I drove this car on Corvette Club functions for the past year without any problems.
Minor Issues: Driver's seat bottom while not ripped, the thread is starting to pull at the seams (see pictures). There are a couple of small scratches (touched-up) on the car and a few rock chips (mostly touched-up) on the hood. The driver's floor mat (that protects the carpet) needs to be replaced.
My reserve is less than the price I paid for the car, so there is the potential of a very good deal here -- thousands below Kelley Blue Book. Since selling my shop, I have way too many cars without room to keep them. My loss your gain. Please ask questions and look closely at the pictures. This is a western car that has lived in California and Nevada and has no rust issues.
Clear California title in hand.
If at all possible, please make arrangements to see and drive the car. This car is sold as is, where is with no warranty. I will work with the buyer for shipping if necessary.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow
Thu, 14 Feb 2013After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
