I never put a formal WTB so here it is. I’ve been checking ebay/autotrader/vetteforum/cars.com/craigslist and haven’t found what I want yet. If anybody knows of one let me know. The ideal is a silver 2008 2LT Z51 with 60k on it, but I’ll consider any. Dealers welcome, I’d be trading in an EOS with 35k. ---

I know someone that just got a 08 with 5K miles for 30K ish just have to look around. There is a nice red one here in Texas with a blower for 34K. I’ll drive it up for gas money.

Just curious, why an 06 but not an 05? They are literally identical other than a little GM badge on the side. ---

2nd production year vs 1st. I’m looking for the same car myself. I’m looking for 08 z51 though. ---

The 2005 has a horrific looking steering wheel that is enough reason. I think there are also some other subtle differences. I was really hung up on getting an LS three until I read that the LS two was under rated and the reality is that an LS two verse and Ellis three car are only a couple tenths off in the quarter-mile. Still I agree that a cyber gray 2009 LS 3 Z51 would be about the perfect car for me to find Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk ---

The 05 has a shitty rear end, interior and 4l65 trans for an anto. I would only get 06+ as well, preferably 08+.

The LS3 is a much better engine… If you have doubts just compare cam only numbers between a LS2 and LS3 There are a number of other upsides to 08+ ---
