- Had a chance at a 65 convertible years ago
Met a gentleman on the Jamestown Ferry, in Virginia who had a beautiful 2006 (?) convertible and I was amazed at the car. We began to talk, I began to want a Corvette more and more after many years of wanting.
He said "well I have 245,000 miles on her and might trade it on a 2014 but the dealer won't give me anything for her.".....I would have taken it in a minute if i knew then what I know now....He has driven it east to west many times as well as all over the USA. Mostly alone and his wife wasn't a traveler.
My question is a) is this a norm? b) are they that reliable?, c) what is the highest mileage Corvette you have heard of? d) at what point in the mileage should I cut off looking at one?
