Hi
While this is not new and l am aware that one should buy the newest year that one can afford in the best condition with the lowest miles with no accidents or paint work.
My question is that l have read a C5 market update and it mentioned that by the year 2001 the vette was pretty much dialed in. It was also the year that the new spoke wheels came out.
What l would be looking for is an auto that is completely stock with no modifications at all and it had to be garaged kept with no more then 40,000 miles on the clock.
What is pushing me is the depressed C5 market while l also expect to take a hit on my 96 Lt1 auto. But the trade off in my humble opinion will be worth it.
The difference's between the 99/00 and the 01 is worth the up charge, but the 02 difference is not worth the additional up charge.
And l will not pick one up at a dealer only auction because l want to see where it has been.
If l can find one with an extended warranty from GM even the better.
What do you think? Am l on the right track?
Thanks
Alan
