There are lots of C3's out there, but the first thing you have to ask yourself is what do I want to do with it ? DO YOU WANT A SHOW CAR? A race car, a driver, or a week-end cruiser ?You can get a nice driver for around 10K. A show car for 50K, A crusier or race car somewhere in the middle.If you are a good mechanic and don't mind some skinned knuckles , make it easy on yourself. Remember one thing,Number's matching cars take a long time to build, and alot of money. I have close to 40K in my car, and i'm selling it for 16K.
