Stock, except has chrome z06 wheels. 115k. clean/clear title. has one prior accident, but repairs look fine. Newish tires all around. It's dirty, but leather is good, one small tear, about 1 inch on the driver seat that is not really noticeable.

What say you, LStech?

Edit: just found out it was a recvoered theft, but has a clean/clear title.

If it has an accident and a theft recovery on the title history, it is not a clean/clear title; the value is going to take a little bit of a hit because of that. There are other factors that will affect the value as well, such as number of owners, maintenance history, and whether or not it needs anything repaired/replaced.

The theft recovery doesn't necessarily give a branded title, unless it was recovered and severely damaged, or it was paid out from the insurance company and the then had to apply for a title, in that case, it will brand it.

Otherwise, car fax is pretty clean.

I'd stay away personally. Sounds like someone else's problem... Let it stay that way. Carfax is not 100% reliable. Far from it. Friend of mine bought a 05 Dodge pickup a couple of years ago online. Clean carfax. When I saw it I could see from 20 feet away the thing had been wrecked hard at some point. Bed and cab didn't line up right, headlights all out of whack, telltale clear coat peeling on quarter panel..... that is now a giant rust bubble BTW.

I never said it did. It may have a "clean" title but it doesn't have a clean history. I had a guy wanting to trade a Camaro SS for my Mustang Cobra. While it did technically have a clean title, it also had two accidents in its history, and that was a deal breaker for me.

Bums me out, he's only asking 11k for it.

That's really cheap imo... If the paint quality is not bad, and all the body lines are straight, I'd probably buy it..

11k for a questionable C5 with over 100k? Pass. If you have to pay a few more G's it's probably worth it for something clean.

11k will almost buy my 39k mile Trans Am with 2 owners and NO accidents.

I would personally rather have a c5 over a ws6 any day. They are night and day. I sold my ws6 and was regretting selling it until I bought my c5.. Ever change plugs on a ls1 vet? Super easy! The interiors are awesome and make the trans ams and camaro look like junk imo. I will have a hard time parting with my c5..
