I’ve been watching some Japanese cars touching 6 figures that just a couple years ago were in the $30’s. I just flipped the 135 I bought last year for $17.5k. I paid $6k at auction. New oil pan gasket, oil filter housing o ring, valve cover gasket. Total cost for parts was $120 plus a set of tires. It took me a weekend to do it. Rolling the money into a S2000 I got on the cheap. If prices hold I’ll turn $20k on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member 800renegaderider Posted May 1, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted May 1, 2021 Go to any car show every freakin vette is owned by a old fart that doesn’t drive it past 30mph. I do see some kids around here driving the c5/c6 cars but it’s because they are fast and affordable. Very few young kids can afford a 40-50-60k car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Jackson Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Still doing high 80's for 1LT's and high 90's for 2-3 LT's. Anyone here driven a 03-04 Z06? Young or old that is a helluva car. Younger drivers don't buy them because of the Vette stigma. Still a world class car especially for the money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of a breathed on LT-5 crate motor that’s either going into a salvaged C7 or Camaro. Should be done by the end of summer. I want to drive it.

Just a typical expensive luxury car trying really hard to be in the true performance category. At least it was a stick so, credit for that.

I’ll give bmw credit for keeping the manual option alive in the M5. It’s grown too heavy for a BMW purist to take it serious. I heard that the current motors from bmw is their last. No additional r&d is being spent on new petro motor platforms. It’s all going the way of electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z06 is a very fun car and they can be had for reasonable money now. I think it’s gonna be a while before the c8s become affordable for the everyday joe that wants to modify and have fun with it. Right now and probably next 10yrs it’s just gonna be a typical geriatric owned car. Sits in garage 360 days a year and doesn’t go above 30mph.
