Looking for a Z and came across a 01 with 72,000 for 18,000. Do you think that a good price for it. Also are the Z's that much better than a reg. C-5.

Test drive them and you'll know, the dealer is more than willing to throw you the keys if he thinks you're going to buy. It's a good price if nothings fudged.
Looking to go test drive it this week. Also will try to test drive reg C-5.
think 2001/zo6 had some engine problems, lots were redone at gm dealers /rings, etc.. 2002> 2004/zo6 were much better, and more power !!
It was for piston slap IIRCQuote:

I am going to take a look at this one on tomorrow:http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...e&rdpage=thumb
I am going to take look one on tomorrow: A 03 with 84,000 miles on it for $18,900 in Millennium Yellow? What you guys think about the price on this one. I did go out today and took a reg C5 for a test drive. It was a 6spd car. It was a 02 with 61,000 miles for $16,500.
you want to get a 02+ as there were quite a few refinements. the issue the 01s had is a oil burning issue that gm fixed by re-ringing them. most c5s will eventually have a abs issue. those are just about it...but yeah get a 02+ trust me...that is unless you have big plans to mod the car and replace the ls6
My plan for the car is to just to boltons. I have a cammed (Camaro) with a stall.
get a 02+ thenQuote:

Went and looked at the car. It's nice, but I am still going to do a little more looking. So I can get the best car for my money.
a Z06 with a little let miles would be a little nicer IMOQuote:

Oh, if you could get an 01 in white you should get it. That is the only year white is offered on the C5 Z06. :)
Having friends with both cars. An 01 6-speed coupe and my other friend has an 02 Z06. The Z06 feels quicker in the steering department and meaner however the 01 does ride a little better. And of course the Z06 is quite a bit faster......lol
Cant go wrong with either really.....lol The 01 in white is fantastic looking though!
I was looking for a white C5 with red int. The I said just get the best car you can find.Quote:
