'06 SL65
Sweet...The '07s might be a steal right now as rumors are the '08s will have the LS7 Heads from the Z06 and bump the base to 435-450HP. If your looking for some easy mods, I would start with an Air Induction Kit (Vortex, Vararam, Callaway, LPE) and Exhaust (my favorite is Corsa) and maybe a short shifter, Cags eliminator and LS2 Edit for starters. Congrats

The lousy "skip shift" mechanism MUST be disabled or else it will bug you like crazy. Mine actually crunch the gearbox before I installed the after market kit. At 300 bhp it beat the crap out of lesser BMW 540is and 911s.
Whatever you do try not to have an accident. A Vette is not a Mercedes. The body is brittle.

Im sorry, I forgot to mention, this is a 2005 model. There were some mods done already, Vararam ram air, Corsa exaust, and a custom tune (w skip shift already taken out).
This car was owned by my best friend in LA and it was his 4th vette. He just picked up a Z06, so he let me buy this out from him for a steal.

Gonna suck to have to put a front tag on it though. Or just roll the dice like I'm doing with my wifes R500 and leave it off.

AHHHHH... an 0hhhhh 5 Vette... LOVE IT. I happen to have a 7 ohhhh. Nice color combo. How does it ride? I have yet to drive one and I am told night and day over the C5.
I think Kerbeck is still selling the stripped 2007 Vettes right around $40K...
