C5s are still popular with a lot of people. Lyle with C&S Corvettes gives a good breakdown on the C5 Gen and which years are better than others.

Most of my material possession dreams have come true(within reason, of course) but I still don't have a ragtop side-piped C3. How is this not the most beautiful vette ever...
My old man had this exact car, different color, 69 convertible with the 427. My mom made him sell if after my brother was born. He still curses at the tv when the jackson Barrett auctions are on and one was goes for over 100k. He will go to his grave with regret for selling it

These sad car stories effect just about every family.
In the 70's my sainted mother chauffeured me and my sister around in her 1971 Dodge Demon with the 340 V8.
Dad wasn't a car guy so when we moved to BR he decided to sell off things that weren't practical including the Demon. He had no idea how rare and valuable that car would be in just a few years.

Neighbor in Lake Chuck found one in Kansas and bought it from an old lady. It was her husbands and had been in the garage for years. This was late 1970's during the oil boom and him a petroleum engineer. He was transferred shortly after to NOLA so he and wife lived in Folsom. Last I heard he became a superintendent of an offshore platform in Africa, I think off Gabon.in the Gulf of Cabinda.

Very good bang for your buck. Get the Z06.

No downvote. Just curious as to why you think that? I drive a ZL1 Camaro and it never fails to make me smile. It’s impractical as hell but fun to drive.
