Default Re: No Xfire Yet! Looking for one, plus your help and suggestions about these cars.

It is black, everything that came standard with the automatic.Sat on dealer lot for 2 years before we bought it with 8 miles on it. As I said driven very little. Did have some kind of leak but was fixed to the tune of over $600 at a dealership 3 years ago. Nothing since. Hardly driven at all since moving to Norfolk from Richmond. Just sits in the garage collecting dust. Put a new battery in last week in the cold because thought that crazy BAS light would go out but haven't been in it since but will get it out tomorrow and see what is going on with it. Honestly, I have really not liked the car since he gave it to me and just want to get rid of it. I think he is tired of my nagging so he said to just go ahead. Haven't put it up yet but sure it will go in this crazy military town but was looking on here to see if anyone else had the BAS problem and saw a thread where maybe someone would be interested in a purchase. We also have a Ford Excursion which my husband drives (I am but 5'2 so it is way too big for me - Excursion) but I'd like to finally have a car back where I can see out the back window LOL. He bought this for me as he had to give up his Z when we married and secretly I think he wanted another sports car. The inside is pristine and outside very good. We even trailered it from Philly to Norfolk (did a year stint in Philly where it was garaged 98% of the time) as public transit there is fine for me. Several here are selling in the 6's which I think is too high but as I said I really want this gone so I can move on and he can stop finding excuses to keep it. If you want more details or want to tell me what you are looking to spend let me know.
For example: Is it automatic or stick? What color interior? Is it a base or Limited? What tires? How old are they? Any other options or mods?
Late C3 & early C4 Corvettes are the lower priced entry to the Corvette Kingdom.
If your husband is interested in the 1986 Corvette have him contact me.
Each Labor Day I disconnect the battery and install a battery maintainer, then drive it into my zip up car bag & it stays in a garage in Metro Detroit area. Then I return to Tampa, then approximately the end of May I return and take it out of the car bag and drive it a few hundred miles during the summer, Various car shows, the Woodward Dream Cruise, etc. So the Vette is probably snowed in right now, but in approximately three months I will be repeating the sequence. Maybe we can work out a trade or something, but not til May! Can you wait that long?
