I’ll be the oddball and say

C 5 Z …. Spend $20k on a low-mile one-owner gem, the other $15k on making it a fookin giant slayer. 3100 lbs of pure rawness.

I think I’m gonna LY5 swap my focus and slap a T 66 EBay Turbskie on it.

Should only cost about $33.50

kiss is what I keep telling myself. H/C ls7 or ls3 + boost. I won’t be chasing numbers or hp. Been there done that.. that shit gets old. Just a fun street car is what I’m looking for.

I've actually been in the market for one for months. Bang for the buck potential is hard to beat. C6 certainly looks better, but like you said, get a pretty mint example without breaking the bank. Had a couple good ones slip through my fingers solely due to how far away they were and not being able to get there in time due to work and the holidays. I feel the flared rear fenders are a must in order to break up that side profile of the long ass end of the FRC cars. The red and black 2000s interior is so bad that I like it.

Hijack off.

Hijack back on.

I one of those guys that LOVES the looks of the FRC coupes. Hell yes.

Being in SoCal, I see low mile c5z's all the time ... and they're pretty damn cheap. Agree on the interiors.

We bought a brand new silver 2002 for $54k and that SOB was the funnest car ive ever driven to this day.

^That blue one with the 427 would look titties in my garage next to the SB Cobra.

Only C5 Z06 I care for is the 2004 24hr Le Mans edition due to it was the only one to come in Le Mans blue and it was the first corvette to ever have a carbon fiber body panel (Hood)

Can you imagine 600+ whp in that tiny ass, weighs nothing car? Thing probably would trap 140++mph or damn near. Beast... and cheap!!

 

[Tezz500]

I gotta be honest, I find any Corvette that isnt a C6/7 ****ing hideous.

I really hope he makes an unwise, poorly timed financial decision just to prove someone he’s never met wrong on the internet.

That’ll teach you!
