Default Anyone looking for a yellow C6 convertible?



Yes I know, I change cars as often as some people change socks. The power top is the main reason that I sold my C5 and ordered the C6. Granted I got all of the other benefits but it would be really nice to just push the button and have the top go down, especially while doing errands. I dropped that option after waiting for many months. Didn't want to be Vetteless when the nice weather came around. Now I am thinking about ordering an '06 and putting the '05 up for sale. It currently only has 2900 miles and some appearence mods. A good offer could make it leave soon. Sticker was just under $60,000 + about $5000. in upgrades (wheels, tires, calipers and tint).

I know someone will suggest a Z06. Only problem is that isn't available in convertible form.

i thought about trading in my ss for a used z06 but it's hard to go back to a fixed roof once you've had a DROP. very nice ride.

and sorry but i don't have 60k

Tom, got a list of mods done to the car? Price with and without. My old man might like a C6 yellow to go along with his '67 Yellow 427/435hp vert that is just about done being restored. Thanks.

Modifications are -
Chrome 19x10 CCW 5 Spoke wheels up front wrapped with 275/30/19 G-Force TA tires and 295/35/19s wrapped around 19x11 wheels in the rear.

Red powdercoated calipers

44 LED 3rd brake light

More performance mods made it onto the car yet but a SuperMaxx long tube header package was going to be going on soon. I'll hold those for the '06.

That's just a little bit out of my price range! But Steph, I'll be more than happy to accept it as a gift!

Still have the stock wheels? PM me a price and options on the car or a pic of the window sticker if you have it. Thanks.

This car will be begging for a supercharger at some point! Just need a rollcage if it starts going to fast.

Someone bought the stock wheels last week. I should be able to send a copy of the window sticker over in the next day or two.

Payment would be about $950. per month.
