Default Good Deal on a Vette?

I found an 03 coupe with 43000 miles on it. Its stock with a 6sp. It has the digital dual climate controls and the HUD display. Is this a good deal ?

Doesn't look like too bad a deal. Mileage isn't that far out of line and it looks like it's totally stock. Somebody's dailey driver would be my guess.

Something's wrong with it..... they wouldn't have to reduce the price... I bet it has horrible paintwork +++++++++

If not, BUY IT.

When I looked at it last night there were some swirl marks and light scratches in the paint. Nothing I cant live with. It drove ok. no noticable mechanical issues.

Looks like a nice clean car. Only thing that seems wierd is the carpet. It still has the plastic wrap on top of the carpet, which is fine, but it looks like it is brand new plastic though. AKA new carpet. May want to look into that. Otherwise a steal of a car. Also what is crazy is they have stickers on the car for $30,990 and want $23990. If that is true that is one helluva deal.
