They're already pretty darn low. I don't see tanking from where they are. What would that even mean? $5k for a C5Z that's in decent shape?. I don't see that happening.

Especially not when people are paying that for a rebuildable LS1

How does the shifter feel in a C5-C6? Like a FWD car? Kind of rubbery I would think.

I love the feeling of a solid ratchet shifter in the trans with a short throw. Not saying I wouldnt give it up for a new Vette

Yeah. There was a time where c4 absolutely tanked. I'm talking 1-2k for clean running cars, they'll dip pretty serious hopefully and i'll get to grab one finally.

Considering the engine packages from wreckers and salvage donor cars are in the 2-5 range, I think the market is probably flattening out around a bottom. Also, the economy in general is picking up notably and you're not the only "Guy" (ha, see what I did there) to know that a C5 is a good platform and want one.

I want a C6 GS, I love those factory flares. Although I wouldnt mind getting a C5 /C6 and doing some custom flares.

Maybe, i've seen several totaled c5's for 3-4k lately and several ls1/t56's for about 1500 or less.
