But not for long. Considering putting my C6 Z51 up for sale in the next week or so. Great car with only 19,000 miles on the clock. Just come back from a weekend at Spa to watch the 6 heures. Where it performed faultlessly..........

I do like that car a lot, my favorite colour as well, I remember when you posted the pictures when you got it, still out of reach for me i think, what sort of figure you looking for ?? so you must be going Z06 route then ?????

I was going to price it at about £22,650. Just had a full service by a Vette specialist last month. And yep. Going down the Z06 route. It was always the intention.

Clicked on the email me link confused

What year is the car?
Euro or US spec?
MOT'd and taxed?

Did you get the sat-nav working?

Tyres ok?

I've just sold my C5 and looking for a C6 as a replacement.

Well to me thats a bloody fair price for a nice car, i adore the C6 Z06 and long for one but 3 kids, mortgage and one income it has to wait, i have been toying with swapping out my 2006 mustang for a C6 as i only get 18MPG from the stang and as it has been my daily driver for the last 4 years its getting too thirsty so bought a Brabus smart car as my daily, saves me £75 a week but i do miss driving something nice every day, i imagine i would get a much better MPG from a C6 so could justify swapping the two for one but would need to put some money with it so it will have to wait till next year i think, shame as i would have loved your car, and at that reasonable price i dont think you will have an issue selling it, the Z06 are coming down so good luck biggrin just be wary of a few dodgy cars being offered on some of the sites, Car Fax is a must with these.

I think fuel consumption on the C6 is pretty good. I get 27-28 mpg at a steady 65-70 mph.

I have a 2006 V6 4.0, silver lowered 20" shelby razors, got grey leather with electric, auto, shaker 500 sound, I went fur the V6 as it was for sale at the right time I have a V8 C3 corvette so that fills the V8 slot and the C6 is not a slow car but very smooth and pleasant to drive. It has been ultra reliable with the only issue being an alternator that went (common fault) apart from that just usual service items that I have done myself, really don't want to sell it as when I walk out the door I still think wow what a stunning car, I had bought a mustang so we could go to car shows and take my son and that was all good till we then had twin girls ! So Vette and mustang go to the shows with the three kids on board :-)

It is a gorgeous car, but the OH says I should wait for another red one, or possibly yellow.
Good luck with the sale, you shouldn't have a lot of problem at that price.

it would be my choice of colour as i agree it shows the lines off beautifly, lowered and a set of rims = sorted!

Adrian Dromey has put the Z06 up for sale that I was telling you about.
Looks tidy.
