I bought my 2nd Corvette, a 2004 Machine Silver Z06 with 23K miles and never looked back. My history was a C5 Convertible I bought new in ‘02. Knew I wanted a C5 because of the Fixed Roof Coupe design. I love that dark lemon color!

I feel the C5 is a sweet spot in the line , with the convertible being the ultimate expression of the type. Avoiding any needed cosmetic repair is the key to a good used car purchase, because the mechanical stuff doesn't require an artistic touch, or waiting around for a special guy, and is cheaper. . it is best to find a corvette specialist garage , because it is a uniquely specialized design, and you don't want any earn while you learn situations screwing up the car . I shift by ear, so never even activate the skip shift. It only works at 35% throttle or less, from 21 to 35 mph , so if it is working as you describe, it has problems. . I activated it a couple of times making a left turn when I first got the car, but now that I understand the conditions that activate the system, I never even know it is there . however the way traffic is in my area, I don't short shift or spend a lot of time at low throttle . Of course, I only get around fifteen mpg around town that way. I bought it for highway efficiency anyway. and because it was one of the few cars, that wasn't German, that I physically fit into , being a touch over six feet tall. The C5 has the largest interior room of any corvette.

Nice C5Z!!! I drove a C6 Z06 for a few years and decided to get into to a C5 (same fun for cheaper) they are great cars but a bit old and you can feel it. Mines done up, interior wise and a few bolt on mods + tune, amazing looking car and drives awesome but its always throwing random codes on the DIC. Thats the only down side to owning a C5 I'd say, you get one code resolved and another 3 show up, super annoying lol

I think people are too hard on the interior. The areas I think they could have done better with is the plastic front bezel and the two lids/doors by the shifter, and the cup holder. Those are unfortunate, but I think the rest is very nice. The dash, pillars, and doors are wrapped in leather! Is that so bad? How many cars of any era have that? Somehow people never comment on this. Also, the seats are super comfortable and look very good, although I wish they had the bolstering of the C4 seats. From what I've seen, I'd say it's generally a lot nicer than all/most other vehicles of the time and aside from that bezel, I don't think there is realistically much to complain about.

As someone who has 2 VW tattoos before i was of even legal age for them, & owned 2 before I could legally drive, I LOVE THIS MONSTROSITY!!! I had a 71 Super Beetle with extra wide fenders, everything carbon or fiberglass to shave weight, & slapped a '93 911 Turbo into it, removed the rear seat & show horned the motor in, as I didn't want the hinge extension to give away I had anything in it, people would pull up next to me, kinda pointing & laughing when I used to street rage, that was UNTIL they see the front end pop off the ground at the light, to give them a "ill taste" of the ASS WHOOPING they're about to receive..... 😆

There's only 3 Z06s for sale on my town and all have been seating on the marketplace for months. If by the end of the year they are still available, I bet I can get the owners to drop a couple grands. One is a 2002 the other are 2001 so of course I want the 2002 one
