I did love my Camaro though and it will be missed- it was a great and fun car and I had 0 issues with it.
The C6 is a 2006, convertible, Z51 package, manual 6 speed, Corsa exhaust. It has 28K miles on it, 1 owner. It's in great shape, garaged. It needs a bit of detailing and clean up, but is pretty nice overall. I paid 19,000 for my V6 Camaro a little over 1.5 years ago. When I found the C6- hidden on a Mercedes car lot- I figured I'd have to sell my Camaro to Carvana. Carvana offered my 19,000 for it. So I went back to the Mercedes dealer and made my offer on the C6 for 26K. They accepted it. Then I asked if they would take my Camaro in trade- they said yes and offered my 19,500- more than Carvana. So I nabbed the C6 for only 8K and my Camaro. So I did not have any depreciation on the Camaro. I paid sales tax on only the difference, registration and dealer fee. When I was pricing up a new LT1 it was going to be my car and 20K. I have gone through the C6 bumper to bumper, changing all the fluids- everything is super clean underneath and the fluids were all clean too. So I think I did OK.....

How many miles on the Vette?
You will be a lot happier compared to the V6 Camaro. 0-60 times around 4.5 seconds and I think they do the quarter around 13 seconds. Granted with traffic during season in Naples might be hard to use all that power.
