Default C7 at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale?

The Barrett Jackson auction in Scottsdale begins the same week as the C7 reveal. This auction always seems to have a way of getting serial #1 cars. Does anybody think the new C7 will be there, and if so, what are your guesses for the sale price?

I'd guess 1 million, but because of the economy, it may be more like 700K

I would say if they do in fact have one there it will be a charity car, so the sale price will be a high 6 figure of maybe even move into the 7 figure range. Also if it is there watch for Ron Pratt or Rick Hendrick to be the high bidders.

Yes. There will be a C7 up for auction at B-J. I'd link you to the article, but that would be breaking the forum rules that prohibit links to other Corvette sites.

R Hendrick will add the #1 C7 to his stable, 800K to 1 Million.

Probably #2, since #1 will end up in the NCM.

I was reading that VIN #1 is going to the GM Heritage Center and that VIN #2 will be on the auction block (think I read it in an NCM e-newsletter...).

Last year a 427 60th Anniversary car went for 600k, with it being a new generation I'd guess 7 figures will be the number!

The winner is: Yes, you are 100% correct!

$600,000. Nothing special about this car really, not like it's the ZO6 or ZR1.
