  • C5 is a performer at a great price.

    I had my 2004 for 10 years. Great car and performance. At 6'2" the C5 provides me with comfort which its predecessors do not. Only issues have been the ignition switch a common problem which I changed out fairly easily, and the climate control lighting which I fixed by resoldering the board.

  • I'm on my second 2004

    My dream car. I purchased my first in 05 and drove it to 120k miles and she was still going strong but had to sell her and get a more client friendly ride. Fast forward to today, I bought my second 04 with less than 10k miles on it. Spent a little money on paint correction and ceramic coating, on bringing the motor back up to speed with new fuel injectors and plugs and wires and she drives like a dream and looks better than off the showroom floor. This is my favorite body style ever and if you're looking for a sporty ride with get up and go along with handling and a classy look that demands attention look no further.

  • Best muscle for the price!!!

    Absolutely love this car! For the price, hands down the best deal on 4 wheels in regard to performance, styling and reliability! Also, a ton of great parts and mods available to make it your own.

  • Dream Car

    This car is just what we were looking for. After all these years of working hard, raising a family and retiring it was OUR time. Is she used-yes, does she have a few dings-yes, does it matter-no! Dream come true.....

  • Weekend traveler

    The car is my retirement gift for my wife and to take fair weather day trips around the state. The convertible was the ace that sealed the deal. The car runs like a dream.

  • Best corvette for the dollar

    I am 69 years old. 6’2”tall and weight 265 lbs. My wife and I returned from our 2nd. Trip to Eureka Springs and enjoyed every mile. Average fuel mileage was 26.6. If your looking for a great used corvette don’t overlook the C5 mine is a 2004 convertible. KH

  • Solid powerful car

    I have owned four Corvettes, and this one is solid. No complaints at all. Great design, smooth flow, strong engine at 350 HP. I bought this car with 25,000 on it in 2018 and I love it. No worries as I will drive this one for many years to come.

  • A great riding, comfortable sports car that is fun

    I love this car. It being a sports car you'd expect it to ride harshly, not this one. The seats are more comfortable that my Lexus drives and handles the road expertly. Corners, rides, handles and accelerates with finesse. It has both tops brand new headliner for the fiberglass one and brand new tinted glass for the other top. Economical, great gas mileage and beautiful to look at.
