The guys at RK Motors in Charlotte, North Carolina posted this one-of-a-kind deal on their website recently, and we were fortunate enough to catch wind of it.  Our lucky find could be someone else’s lucky day….and here’s the best part, this car is priced to move.   Sure, its more expensive than most third-generation Corvettes on the market today, but for $55,900 (asking price), you get an original 25th Anniversary Corvette Pace Car Edition survivor with just 42 miles!
