I just bought my first vette 2 wks ago, and am not real sure if I got a good deal or not. I got caught up in the "WOW" and rushed this deal. I bought a 1999 hard top vette, w/ the LS1 motor. The veh. is immaculate, and has been garaged since birth. It is not a Z06, but has the Z06 package, interior, and wheels. BUT, the original owner had GM uprade several things to the motor, larger cold air intake, high performance filters etc. I have a copy of the Dyno sheet that GM sent and shows the veh. at 403HP, and shows all the upgrades, and HP boost for each. Its a six speed, and has 63,000 orig. miles. The interior is 98%, and EVERYTHING is in perfect working condition. The only aftermarket part on the vette is a brand new CORSA stainless exhaust. Other than this, the car is all stock from GM. I gave $16,000 for this RED beauty, and hope I did ok. Any opinions????
Thanks

You might as well have stolen it from underneath the previous owner! Haha! Yes, you got a very good deal.

Thanks for the input, now maybe my wife will start speaking to me again...lol. Not really, shes been a trooper about the whole thing. Funny thing is though, neither of us wanted RED, nor did we want a 6 speed! But after owning the car for a couple of weeks, the red is now FINE, and the 6 speed is the only way to own a vette. I guess it worked out fine all the way around. Thanks for taking time to respond.....I do feel better now!

The dyno sheet came from a GM mechanic(at a dealership) that the original owner knew. As i stated, it is NOT, a Z06, but has the Z06 package or (LOOK).... 2 tone leather stitched interior, and the Z06 wheels. I dont know what the corsa catback exhaust added to HP, but I do think it puts this car in the upper end of HP for 1999 stock vettes.
Just a guess.
