Random car opinion needed

[wnaplay1647545503]

Would you rather

 

A. buy an older c5 corvette that is in great condition ready to drive, and paid for in cash.

 

or

 

B. Buy a c6 which needs a little bit of work(roughly a few thousand), paid in cash, costs more, yet might have to sit in the garage for several months until the work can be done.

 

Thanks

depends what is needed on the C6.

 

if it wasnt that bad, and you still have a clear title id go c6 all the way.

its an amazing difference between the c5 and c6, about 100 hp i think

ride better, look better.. yeah C6

[wnaplay1647545503]

c6 is salvage and needs minor frame work, hood, fenders, bumper.

[wnaplay1647545503]

Even wrecked its sexy as hell.

[wnaplay1647545503]

I forget also needs fiberglass work done on doors. It might take me another year of it sitting in the garage to get it fixed.

ok well then i guess to me it would depend on price.

yes you may have the same in it as the c5, but i know how you are.. and im the same.

when you buy somethgin you look at resale value.

the c6 wont have much of a resale being salvage title.

 

weigh your options

c5 pros : can drive it now, dont put any money in it, clear title, better resale

c5 cons : not as nice as the c6, less power

 

c6 pros: nicer car, more power, newer

c6 cons: salvage title, more money into it, bad resale, a year before you can have it on the road, may get tired of doing the work, may be more money into it then expected

[wnaplay1647545503]

I was all set on getting a c5 found one and everything until I saw that c6. It will be double the money.

[88lx5oh]

then fuck that especially on a salvage.

get the c5

[Main3s]

then fuck that especially on a salvage.

get the c5

 

Yeah, the C5. Fiberglass work is expencive.

[wnaplay1647545503]

Yeah, the C5. Fiberglass work is expencive.

I would just replace parts probably.

[88lx5oh]

I would just replace parts probably.

 

MO expensive

[copperhead]

C5

[Scotty2Hotty]

None of the above.

[kenny]

Neither, too common for me.

[Guest Removed]

IMO neither!

 

but C5.

[John Bruh]

c5. salavge title isnt worth a fuck. car just wont be "right"

[Mopar]

c5 /thread

[SICKNESS22]

C5 for the clean title.

[lawnman]

c5 . The resale of a c6 will be tough with a salvage title . Vette guys will almost never buy a salvaged titled Vette .

[96blkform]

I agree go with the C5, go for a clean title car.

[Feffman]

None of the above.

 

Ditto! Keep looking for a clean C6 if you want the Vette. Salvage title becomes a bit of a PITA!

 

Feff

[ISpoolOldSchool]

i woulda said the c6 if it wasnt for the title, go for the c5, put that money that you would have in the c6 fixing it into the engine and some wheels

[NOS50]

C5,no salvage title cars for me unless they are DIRT cheap.I agree with above posts,a salvage title Vette would be very ,very, hard to sell.

[kirks5oh]

c5, that c6 looks like too much work--salvage title will make it worth squat, and would be next to impossible to get what you need out of it, if you have to sell it.

 

the c6's are sexy, but that thing is beat. both cars can be made fast as hell, so that is a moot point

[FormulaMatt]

Definitely the C5 unless you are going to keep the c6 around. If I was planning on building up the C6 and keeping it around I wouldn't care about the salvage title since I wouldn't be worried about selling. But, I am alot like you and sell soon after I buy. That said Id probably do the C5....If you pass on it, let me know the details....Ive been looking some lately for one too.
