Which is more reliable, a '98 or a'99 C5 Corvette. With a good repair/maint. history is 100k on a C5 worth buying?

Sorry about the delay. We work regular jobs and do this as we can and there are so many questions sometimes there are some that do not get answered unless you do exactly as you did.

There is not really much of a difference in the two year models. However the later the model of the same body will have less "bugs" because they are worked out in the previous years. If you find a particular car you want to purchase I can run the Vin number to see what kind of recalls, warranty repairs were done etcetera. The cars had quite a few recalls in these year models also saw a few rear diff problems. But to answer your question I would go with the newer one if it had all the options and color I liked, also consider which one has the least miles on it.
