RE: Help me!!! Are these fair prices?
I for one believe that all corvettes are beautiful and inspirational works of art and enginerig....but.....I paid barely more than your first option of $23,000 USD for my curent '01 removable top coupe, with only a few owners and only 30 something k miles. My advice...know the options you want, color, etc, and think about the mileage you will be willing to live with, and subsequently check on warranties, etc, and when you come across the right car, it will hit you...it's easy to love all corvettes, but when you see one that fits your budget AND your personality , it will feel right....

I think both prices are way too high but I am in Alabama and prices here tend to be lower. If they were prices for a convertible they might be closer to being a fair price. I would think you could find a much lower mileage 2000 for that much or less.

Those #'s do seem a little high.
Architect has a good point. Shop with your mind. NOT your heart/eyes. I spent about 7 weeks - 12 hours /week avg, looking for my second vette. I spent a week (maybe) going after my first, and it was a less-informed decision than was the second.

RE: Help me!!! Are these fair prices?
I agree, those prices are pretty high considering the mileage on the 2000. I would think something around 19-20K would be more reasonable. 95K miles is alot of use. I'm currently looking for my first vette and have not found the perfect car yet. I'm not a very patient person but I'm learning that it will be worth the wait to get the car of my dreams. Good luck and again...be patient!
