Car Buying Dilemma....Opinions? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Okay as a lot of you know I am one "those guys" with a 2005 Mustang GT.

Anyway, it might be possible for me to buy a used 2003 Corvette Z06 with only 19,500 miles on it for a pretty decent price.

The only problem would be I would need to find a buyer for my Mustang first, and drive around in a beater for a bit until I bought the vette.

However, if I buy the Vette now, I will not be able to afford a Camaro in 2009 or 2010.

But this is a Vette and a Z06 to boot.... Oh and I know it is the C5 Z06 with the LS6 engine and not the uber LS7, but does anyone know if there is anything to look out for with the C5 Z06?

Nevermind....I just found out the car was sold. No Z06 for me so it is a non issue at this point, but maybe later.

The C6 actually has a surprising amount of space back there!
22Cu. ft. in the coupe. :eek: But, yeah, Camaro FTW.
