I picked up a clean (garage kept, old guy clean) stock 2005 C6 manual 6 speed, LS2 with 115k miles for just over $10k after TTL. I spent every day looking and as soon as I saw that I popped on it. I wanted a later one for the LS3 but I have a fully built LS3 with cams and heads sitting in the garage for a project car that I have switched directions so this winter I'll probably swap out the LS2 and put it in it's place. So far this car has been my daily driver for 6 months now and I am about to hit my first 10k miles on it. Fun, fun but I want Mo POwa Babeh!
woah you got a great deal bro! Make sure you get another daily if you're gona do the swap haha, it would be interesting dailying a fully built ls3 with cams
@@AnwarAndCars yeah I know i'm teetering on becoming one of those guys who's daily goes to far race car and then its no fun to drive as a daily. Granted I have hope because I only put a stage 2 cam. I'm curious as well. I didn't even plan to build it but I do a lot of media work for automotive companies and my buddy who is an engine builder wanted to "trade" and I made several videos for him and he built the motor out so I'll let you know how it goes haha.
I got a ls2 for 13k its as clean as the car u looked at at 12:44 its sooooooo fucken clean and its white interior!!! Only problem its salvage lol but its clean!!! 👌 rides goood
The C6 Corvette, I wouldn't spend more than 15,000 tops for an manual and that's the bottom line. C5, I wouldn't pay more than 10,000 for and that's the bottom line!!!
2004 was the last year of the LS1 like the GTO, 2005 and up came with the LS2. Great work my dude, love your work.
I appreciate it brother!
They definitely don't come with the ls1 😂😂 and the ls2 is a really good strong motor and responds very well with mods!
Well said and they are not far behind the ls3 when it comes to gains
ls2 is great

Thanks for all the info. You covered more than anyone else has and you walked us through the process.
Thank you! let me know what other content you'd like to see
I’ve seen an 07 for 15k it’s an automatic (w/ paddle shifters) with 112k miles would that be a good price. It’s red
Buying a ‘08 Corvette tomorrow. Thanks for the video! Excited for my new daily driver for the next year.
you wont regret it!
Whats up yall, I made a mistake and said the early c6's came with the ls1 and they actually come with the ls2.
Good catch
The first ones you were talking about had the ls2.not the ls1.
Great Video , Very informative . I learned allot just from this video. Lots of tips . Thanks. B.
Old Rover this guy hasn't got a clue so forget what you learned
CoachJM
I just take what I need and leave the rest , as there was some useful Imfo there.
in my experience you are wrong about the roof panel and mirror - both are rock solid in my 2011 c6.
they definitely improved the quality as the years went on, this issue was mainly reported for earlier model c6 vettes.
Anwar And Cars Thanks for the info. I learned something new!
Hello I wanna get vette 2011 ls3 with 90k miles for $ 27000 with tax everything it’I alright??
Please respond back cz I’m on my to get it!
Do you own one because you're spreading misinformation.
2012+ have the upgraded seats.
No LS1 on these vettes.
You can tell doesn’t
Learn your C6 Corvette motors bro! Most vette owners are very familiar with the power train.
im hip, i gotta practice my facts more
Omg I’m so cool to find someone on UA-cam with the same Name 😃
Although you basically took the name I was gonna use when start my Channel
05-07 is a ls2 6.0 and 08-13 ls3 6.2 for the base models same for 2010 grand sport ls3.
The 05-07 c6 comes with a LS2.
Unless it is a Z06.
i know he didn't say 05-07 comes with a LS1 lmao i'm sure it was a mistake good video though

😂😂😂😂😂 its not "clean" if its SALVAGED! Also, you paid too much.
Cool vid bruh!! Can you do one for a D4 A8 Audi?
Thanks! and yeah i gotchu
The automatics are faster. They are more expensive (not less). They are more desirable than the manual (not less).
It's a matter of taste. Personally, I would pay 3k or 4k more for a manual easily.
Faster ,Yes. More desirable, No. At least not in the southeast.
They come with a ls2 and the ls7 in the zo6 tend to drop valves. Also you’ve never been in or driven a gtr
I’ll take the c6 corvette base model over anything 1,2,3 lt
U gonna get grilled about that ls1 statement bro🤦
Don't knock those New Balance, they are comfortable as f. Grandpa will gap you in his tuned C6 and NB. Lol
Like your vid, data on ls1 is incorrect, it was ls2 I believe
You lost me at LS1
👍👍❤❤❤👊👊👊 Thank you for the information
Good video but cmon man!! You're not sure what memorial day is???? Really??? Sad but not surprised.
You are not the most positive person. You need to think about your entire audience.
The C6 Corvette, I wouldn't spend more than 15,000 tops for an manual and that's the bottom line. C5, I wouldn't pay more than 10,000 for and that's the bottom line!!!
used car prices are inflated right now
