Idk....it's been nearly 20yrs and c5z is still 20kish. One of the best most raw drivers cars ever produced. I don't see the bottom falling out of that for a while.

And mac is a ****** retard for wanting to do something so stupid to one. And he would likely still be stuck in the 12s.

Lol
I agree on both accounts.

I also don't see c5z prices dropping anytime soon.
They have held very solid through the years and if anything have risen a couple grand the past five years in general for nice conditioned cars.

You can buy a decent condition c5z around north texas in the low to mid teens.

Here is a good example and these guys are usually $3k-$4k higher than the independent market.

I was thinking more like 2-3 years from now. I have to finish the SS first. If I cant find one I'll probably end up with a C5Z for a early 2nd gen Camaro and move the drivetrain from the SS over.

I think this car is priced right and in person is probably pretty rough. Imo this is a mediocre condition car and the price is still up there. That paint and interior looks to be absolutley hammered.

That dealership needs to bring that car to me so I can make it look like this and add $5k + to the value

If I found that car for less than $12K, it'd be in my garage tomorrow. Aside from needing a real detail it looks pretty good to me. Stock and good mileage speak volumes to me. Of course it'd be stock for about 8 minutes but thats beside the point.

For raw driving experience only car I've driven like it. Its a blast, but also **** putting an auto in c5z part of the magic is shifting gears as you slide around with the stock seats that don't hold you in place at all lol.
