'02-'04 Z06 Corvette Wanted

[Zedder]

Thanks Kevin. Unfortunately, the car has to be registered in the US for 6 months before I can bring it into Canada and maintain the factory warranty. It also has to have 7,500 miles on it, but I can handle that Thanks again

Mark..go ahead and get it I'll keep it for 6 months and drive it till it has the 7500 miles joking aside a friend of mine has a z06 and a c6 they just got. the c6 is a really nice car like you said, after he drove them both he likes his z06 better, to him the z06 has the muscle car feel and looks. he's gonna keep the z06 they got the c6 for his wife anyway. we had them both plus my c5 at a car show lined up and I do like the c6 but I like the c5 better I'll stick to the c5 for now it did take me awhile to get used to the c5 look maybe I'll get used to the c6 but their were alot of people that like the c6 at the show and some hated it.

Eddie: Your friend and I think alike There are few unmodified new cars around that can give the kind of rush that a Z06 can and nothing for the same money!

No problem, I'll send the Z06 your way for a few months...just be sure to put your ZL1 on the car hauler when it arrives so I am not left with nothing to drive

Thanks for the lead Ron, I'll keep it in mind. I am really hoping to find a private deal though so I can have a better chance of verifying how the car was cared for.

Thanks again,

I knew I'd stick my foot in my mouth

Why would Chevy want the car to have 6 months and 7500 miles on it before giving a warranty? That sounds crazy. I'm not calling you crazy, just Chevrolet for that qualification.

[Zedder]

They did it to stop the grey market that was developing due to the weak Canadian dollar - Harley did the same thing. Many US buyers were buying new Corvettes and Harleys in Canada and because of the exchange rate they could sell them at a profit in the US. This upset US dealers who cried foul and GM created this policy to put an end to it. The reverse is true now, I can buy a new Corvette in the US for full list and still save $9,000 CDN over buying here for full list. That's why I'm looking for a lightly used US car

Zedder, I have a very good friend who is a Vette/Camaro enthusiast that has a very clean 04 Z06. It is the special edition that is blue with the silver stripes and is a 6 spd. It has been registered in the U.S. for 6 months, miles are low but not sure how many. He has been talking about selling it. PM me if you are interested.

Thanks DW, I've got two pretty good irons in the fire so far, so let's wait and see how I make out with them. If things fall through, I'll give you a shout. Thanks again

Another good resource (dealership wise) for Corvettes is Karl Chevrolet in Ankeny, Iowa. Seems as though I heard/read somewhere that they are one of the Nations largest Vette carriers, and have a tendancy to purchase/rework cars much like back in the Yenko/Nickey/Berger/Motion heyday. Just a thought.
