MSRP of 46k, they were going at auto auctions for 70k when they first came out. Supply and demand is all.


NUTZZ,  is that an '04 or an '05?

Traction control with one button on the console so you can or can't "smoke em' up". What I like about it is the interior, It's really plain, just the way i like them. I felt secure when driving. What I didn't like, Mirror remote has bad placement on drivers armrest. I wasn't impressed with the "getup and go" I guess I really didn't realize how much my Goat w/ the 455 had. I figured this Badboy with so much horsepower would snap my neck back alittle more. Oh well, It still is very pretty. BTW, I'm not buying it, The guy I rent one of my stores to IS. And this is only the No frillz 8 cyc. 38k sticker.

Alloy wheels, VERY, VERY nice PR40's wide profile.

40's, the wheels where so deep you would swear it was tubbed.

P.S. Yea Lazerus, I would say that would make for a great day.

Ya got the new 6.0, 390/405 engine. SOB is nice. Drove it and three different '05 vettes on a road course in VA in July. Compared em to the 911, Boxter S, and Z4.

That was one hell of a day.

Yea, Looked under the hood to see what a v-10 looked like and saw it was only an 8. I didn't even know they made them in 8 cyclinders. But he didn't want to spend the extra 10k for the v-10, and they had so many option packages you could get it would bring the sticker price easily over 60k.

This was the "no frilz" package, See no running boards, no trim, no tool cargo boxes in the back ( can't see then anyways) or the "wood" interior. Althoug the stock stereo was KICK ASS, for stock.

NUTZZ, go build one on chevy.com and see what it would be.

No V10, just a 390hp, 405 lb torque V8.
Same motor that's in the '05 vette, just tuned different.
