Mmm.... Boss...
CPO e90's cars are out of my budget. I might consider a private party sale. Need to learn more about common failures and typical running costs.

I hear the same story, too. But it's time to move on and let the S2K chapter end. Too many cool cars, not enough garage space to enjoy them.

Only sat passenger. It's going the way of the e36, too few modest mile cars for decent coin. I looked at replacing the S2K with one for a couple of months back.

Yeah that was my test drive yesterday with a C6, cash in hand ready to buy a clean car with under 45k miles. In the end the seller and I couldn't agree on price and it made me recognize how little I value the corvette. Great pick up at $15-18k, not a $20k+ thrill. There's something too crude about it.

Nope. Never! I love the 996 with IMS failures, plastic interior, questionable looks and all. Those headlights just remind me of my favorite meal of the day.
