Up for auction is my baby, a 1999 C5 Corvette that makes 500hp at the motor. This car is so much fun, and so much fun does not say it well enough. This car is loud, sounds like an old muscle car but with new car power and features. It turns heads everywhere you go, literally. If you want to be seen this is the car to drive. I have a TON of money into this car. I have a mod list below and I am sure I am forgetting stuff and that list alone comes to nearly $19,000 just in modifications alone!!! I paid $27,000 for the car 4 years ago as well. So I am taking a massive hit on the car but let me tell you it is worth every penny. This car is seriously more fun than anything you will ever drive. It looks great, it has only 36,600 miles on it and has never been in the snow or rain. It sits in a garage all the time when its not being driven, for 6 months out of the year its under a cover with a battery tender on it. It has no underbody rust which some C5's have on the rear part of the frame but this one is perfectly clean. I sealed anywhere on the frame I could get with this coating to prevent when I got the car. The car starts right up no issues at all. It shifts like a dream. It doesnt leak a drop at all either. I change the oil every 2,000 miles, yes 2,000 miles thats how anal I am about my car. I used mobile 1 full synthetic but recently switched to royal purple, the car runs better on it for sure. I change all fluid every 6,000 miles, and I mean all fluids, trans, differential, radiator fluid, brake fluid. You name it, I do it. The extensive mod list below speaks for itself, and the car has a full LG Race Coil Over suspension, which makes it handle as good as Porsche or a Ferrari, I know because my Dad has these cars and my C5 can hang with them with no problem in the corners. The car gets about 23mpg on the highway if you don't run it hard, and you can expect 14mpg around town, typical super car gas milage. AC blows ice cold, and heat is very hot. All gauges work. The car has never been in an accident. The tigershark front end was put on by me, its almost impossible to match this color paint perfectly so its a shade off. The tigershark front fascia really sets it apart from other C5's. All work was done either by me, East Coast Supercharging, or Cartek. Two of the best Corvette tuners in the world. The reason I am selling the car is to pay for my schooling. The car is amazing and I want it to go to someone who will appreciate the car for what she is. The body is in great shape too. I think the car has a total of 7-8 scratches on the entire car (yes I know how many scratches are on my car I am a fanatic). If you have any questions feel free to call me 908-812-3290. I am selling this outside of eBay as well so reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. I will take best offers, or partial trades with cash for motorcycles, atv's, dirtbikes since I can piece them out with my business. Trunk mat not included.
