2001 C5 Targa Top value

[jagr]

Hi All,

I have a 2001 Corvette C5 in millenium yellow.

It has 74k miles and has the standard 5.7l v8.

In very good condition and a few mods/extras.

It has sport seats, f45 electronic suspension, heads up display

Has a sports exhaust and bbk air induction kit and lots of chrome parts under the bonnet.


Faults as all cars have them:

Age related marks to bodywork (no rust/dents)
The common Oil pressure sender is faulty

I was just wondering what it would be worth?

Cheers

no rust hey

sounded good until i saw the spolier

prices seem wild , some are a bit over 10k , others 15-16 or so

[ringram]

~12k IMO.

Quite high mileage and non standard mods.

Hi
That looks pretty clean mate. Think ringram is about right for me mainly down to mileage.

I don't mind mods,if you do put it up for sale people may want the wing removed , bit marmite that one.

Question is that a corsa touring exhaust ? Do you have the stock exhaust ?

If that's yes to both I would be interested in buying it, can understand if it`s a hassle for ya

Just saying

I agree about the wing on it deffo whip that off.
Mileage I cant agree on as that only averages just over 6k a year,
not a lot by any real car standards.
I used to have a 2001 coupe in yellow myself, was very nice in the 4 years I had it.

Having owned C5s for over 11 years, I've never heard of a failed oil pressure sender - I don't think it's a common fault. It's a $50 part that takes about an hour to fix so I can't see it selling with iffy oil pressure readings. Fixed, I'd guess at £10k/12k tops.

I had a failed oil pressure switch on my 2001 convertible (the black one). I was told by Ian Goss it is a bugger to change as it is under a piece of the bodywork (not removable)by the wipers, although that is hidden under another piece of removable body trim. It is an engine drop or a 'chop job' of drilling through the piece of bodywork (which is subsequently hidden) to replace it. I sold mine unrepaired with the part supplied and it is still running fine around Surrey.

Far as I know just remove intake manifold to get to the oil pressure switch.

Think NAPA do a non gm switch which is bullet proof .

Colin, if we are talking about the same thing, then I think Ian may have got it wrong. Dave's correct....................
