C6 vette vs 5.0

[unreal]

People compare to other cars they see on the road. Yes, stock for stock that is a better match up. At the same time a new 5.0 is going to cost the same as a lightly used vette so it is a decent comparison dollar for dollar.

Yeah if you compare it to a fully loaded GT cause I got mine 2012 GT for 28k out the door. I don't think a slightly used C6 will go for that price.

Depending on market... I got my 08 a year old in 09 for 30,500. Had full exhaust, 2000 dollar nitrous system, cam, cold air etc, and only 16k miles... It made 645rw and ran mid 10s with a terrible bog (wouldn't leave hard, it broke when I tried). Was probably one of the most fun and best cars I've owned, but I sold it to buy my dad's 05 and chase the NA record of 10.1 currently.

You are right, they are mid/low 20s depending on mileage for ls2 cars. You can get nice 08-09 LS3 vettes for 28k. Heck you can get z06s for mid 30s now if you will take higher mileage.

My friend here just got a 2006 z51 vette with a d1sc procharger, headers, cam, meth, clutch, rims, tires, exhaust, custom stereo, etc etc for $26k. Makes 720rwhp and in great shape.

I got my 08 3LT full bolt on z51 w/ 29k miles on it for around 32k OTD. I was happy with the price because it's super clean.
