Used Mercedes are junk, especially when they do not have a warranty. At least if the C5 has issues you can fix it at the shop. 350Z is okay, but the G35 looks better. I'd rather have a clean low mile GTO than a ragged high-mile C5 at the same price range though.

She should be able to get a super clean low mile C5 for $23k.

+1

I recently made just that very decision. Driving C6s has kinda ruined the C5 for me though.

The OP NEEDS to get the C5 over those other two cars in her poll, what is hotter than a good looking blonde cruising in a Corvette?

For 23k or under i would definetely get a 05+ GTO. Those are like 19k now and come LS2 equipped and a 4L65. If you get a C5 for 19k its gonna be a piece most likely and have high miles with a 4L60 that gonna take a **** soon! A 4L60 is a transmission BTW ;-) LOL. A mercedez is a shitbox...Trust me i have a repair shop. 350Z's i dont think even come with a sunroof...plus they are like a 2 door Maxima and SLOOOOOOWWW!!!
