I'm looking for a 97+ C5 for around blue book since Blue book is around 15k!? Is that number a mistake?
I turned 18 a couple weeks ago and if I find a decent job I'd really like to get one. I know some 18-20 year olds with cobras, etc and of course my fox body with a stripped interior and obnoxious exhaust is getting old pretty quickly

Trans Am when I was 30. Vette at 35.
I was lucky to be able to drive Vettes when I was 21. And, yep, I totalled one of them. Your insurance will probably cost you more than the car. I would recommend getting an insurance quote before you go looking.

This one at 64, paid cash, at my age I won't buy green bananas. good luck finding a 97 for 15k.I just had my 98 appraised, and because of the low mileage, private party value was 23k, oh , and its not for sale at that price or any other for that matter, I plan to be buried in that car...Actually my grandson wants it, but he will have to kill his father to get it.
