I offered them 10k cash out the door, I thought that was a reasonable offer. I thing there are major repairs with the ride control. If it was something minor why wouldn't they have fixed it? Who knows.

As stated before, I'm not without a Corvette, I guess my Z06 will just have to suffice for now.
that didn't take long to change!

Great to hear from you Will. I just took delivery of a 1995 Bright Aqua
ZR-1 #152, so I guess my Z06 can stay parked!

I've had my 2007 Z06 since October of 2006. The '92 ZR-1 was a great opportunity to own a historical Corvette, but I knew I would want another. Just took delivery of my '95 ZR-1 this evening!
