2000 FRC Price Question

I am looking at a 2000 Pewter FRC (Pewter) that the original owner is asking $23500. Car has 30000 miles and just had new tires put on. Onwer says car was always garaged and it looks like it. Paperwork looks like it was serviced regularly. What does everyone think? Thanks for your help.

The bottom line is are you happy with it for the price ?

It sounds like a good deal to me, good luck with your purchase

With only 30K on the car it sounds like a really good deal ! But are you happy with it ?

If the car checks out, that seems very reasonable. The FRC's seem to be holding their value exceptionally well.

The price is good. Remember your are only 3 to 4 thousand away from stepping up tp a 2001 Z06. Which IMO is a much more desirable car.

I would have to agree, but the deal doesn't sound bad.

I paid $26500 OUT THE DOOR with 31K miles 18 months ago. I am military, so registration was only $17.00 for two years as well. Yes, SEVENTEEN DOLLARS. I think I got a GREAT deal then. Check on the site slike autotrader, NAPA, etc to see what they are going for. But, to me....I could care less when I found it. I loved it and wanted it! White FRC 6SPD? Not easily found.....Its all mine now.....

AND if you plan on doing ANY performance mods, might as well spend a BIT more and get a Z06.

unless you are set on the pewter color of course


either vette will be awsome

Sounds like a good deal to me, I just gave $24000 for my 2000 Pewter FRC. It had 33k on it and had Z06 wheels, aside from that it was stock down to the paper filter.

I am very happy with my purchase, and opted for the FRC instead of a Z06 to get the pewter color.

Good luck with whatever you decide, as long as you get a Vette I think you will be happy.

I just bought a 99 FRC from a dealer (a month ago) with 32k miles for $22K. It was all stock and pretty clean.

Really wanted a z06, but that extra $4k was just a little too much for me at this time.

Of course I already bought a set of z06 wheels...
