Old Orchard Nissan review
We were literally about to go with the dealership, but
We were literally about to go with the dealership, but thanks to meeting Kostya, we paused and ended up getting a much better deal. Big thanks to him — really appreciate his help.
1997 Chevrolet Corvette Base review
I have a 97 Corvette I bought with 82000 miles on it.
I have a 97 Corvette I bought with 82000 miles on it. I have replaced the oil pressure sending unit twice. I have replaced all the shocks. I have replaced both gas tank sending units and fuel pumps. I have replaced the power window and power lock switches on the drivers side. The ac compressor needs replacing . I do love the car. It is Carmine Red.

1997 Chevrolet Corvette Base review
Few things compare to owning a vette
The only reason I would ever sell my 97 vette is to get a new 2020. It is a thrill to drive everytime I get into the car it is another exciting adventure, If you haven't driven a corvette, you are missing out on one remarkable experience. At 72 yrs old I love driving the automatic, it will go as fast as you want to go and the gas mileage is good on the highway.
There are 12 matching cars close to your year range.
