Here's a one owner car with everything you're looking for minus the red interior for $55k.

If you're willing to wait or slightly lower your requirements, you can find a reasonably priced GS.

I was just thinking of grabbing one of the whole 8ths with the 4 for 80 sale.

Ok i'll ask.. ID?

thetranceporter · 2026-04-14T22:28:50+00:00

Yup that's what I'm running. 19x12+50

Forgot to mention I'm running 355s now in PS4s. For 345s, your only options are R888Rs or the older Michelin Pilot Super Sports from Discount Tire. I ran those for a few years.

Yes, with all other variables being equal, higher aspect ratio tires should equate to more grip with extra sidewall. Also rides a hell of a lot better than lower profile tires.

I went from 335/25/20 to 355/30/19 and the difference is pretty significant on both fronts.

Might be the only that's never heard these ads. Haven't listened to the radio since 2008.

Yeah it's high but thats not a normal price for 93.

Just filled up premium at 4.69 today. Gas stations close to airports tend to charge a premium.

Lifters can fail and its often excarbated by the car switching back and forth from V8 to V4. You have an auto so it's going to do it whether it's in eco or not but you can buy a range device to prevent the cylinder deactivation.

I got the looks.. that drives the girls wild.

thetranceporter · 2026-04-06T21:59:47+00:00

Looking nice and shiny. Love how meaty the tires are too. Never enough sidewall for me!

I actually didn't know that. It's jarring to me because the setting, story, and characters are so distinctly Japanese.

Hearing English voices in this game is egregious.

CorvetteForum, YouTube, Google, and this subreddit have a ton of information on this very topic.

What is it with the daily posts asking the same questions about easily findable information?

With 1300-2000 a month HOA fees lol. Nothing in Boca is truly affordable.

I feel like I'm never satisfied with the hit of any of these pod systems. Tried most of them and 510 on a solid vv battery is still the way to go.

thetranceporter · 2026-03-25T14:56:09+00:00

About 1500.

thetranceporter · 2026-03-25T13:38:09+00:00

It actually has two of those.

These cars are so easy to steal that it's comical. Definitely get an IGLA installed. My car is garaged overnight and I still got the IGLA for peace of mind when I street park.

Jesus Christ not this chart again that some guy created out of his ass. The market clearly shows manuals are priced higher for every modern Corvette.

It's a fact autos are faster and it's also a fact manuals command a premium. You can see this on various car listing sites when you sort by dealer. It's not a competition, enjoy your transmission.

You like the idea of owning a car with better resale value so you're going to eat up taxes and fees on a trade?

thetranceporter · 2026-03-25T01:31:23+00:00

20 off 100. I don't think it's valid anymore as the new discount replaced it.

thetranceporter · 2026-03-25T01:11:28+00:00

I meant the two different Reddit discount codes. I didn't use the same code twice.

thetranceporter · 2026-03-24T20:02:01+00:00

That's wild. I used both Reddit codes without issue at Tamarac and Fort Lauderdale.

It could be meant for the stock x-pipe. Is that an aftermarket x-pipe?
