found a pretty decent deal from a dealer that doesn't know what he has.

VIN check shows a 3LT car with NPP (Performance Exhaust) and Z51 package.
Dealer assures me its a base model with "heated seats" as its only option.
People on corvette forum have confirmed based on pictures its a 3LT car and taught me where to look to find the codes to see if its really z51/npp

going to try to get out of work early and test drive it tomorrow evening.  If all goes well it might be mine

he is, its a caddy dealer, vette was traded in for a cts-v according to the guy. When I was asking him questions I could tell he was just reading from the internet listing. Its 08 36k miles, asking 30,995. My goal will be out the door (tax/tags/title) for $30k. He already took $1k off to "get me to come see it cuz he KNOWS I'll love it because its so clean" but said he won't discuss price anymore over the phone, but assured me "I can get the best deal in person."

I ended up buying it. They wouldnt go any lower than 29995, but I got him to throw in new rubber, an extra key fob, and delivery to my front door (I live 2 hrs+ from the dealer)

Car was cleaner than it looked in the pictures. Seriously looked like a new car. Drove like a dream and it turned out to have z51 and NPP exhaust.

Will be delivered either Monday night or Wednesday night (depending on when the tires arrive) Was sooo hard to leave it there
