Hit the gas on a freeway entrance ramp, feel the rush and then ask yourself that question. Enjoy your car!

Look at it this way. You just bought $38K worth of happiness. Enjoy every minute you're behind the wheel or when you look at it, for that matter.

Doesn't really matter what you paid for it. You liked it. You bought it. It's yours. That's what living is about.

Not a chance in hell... perhaps a high milage beat to **** C7... but certainly nothing I'd call "nice".

Low mileage 2013's are bringing in big bucks.
I'm in the market for a low miles 2013 one owner car.
Considering today's market with inflation it's not that bad of a buy.
I'm expecting to pay mid $30's too 😐

eta:
Exactly one year ago I passed on a 2013 GS with only 500 miles on it for $37000
Owner was USAF and was always deployed

Yup. Guess he bought just as much Corvette as he could afford, kinda like me. Only I didn't give them my camera as part of the deal.

IMO with the market being so nuts as it is I think you did ok. How are the tires (age?), Auto or manual trans? Interior color? We're going to need lots of pics!

I have an ‘11 GS 3LT coupe w/ 10k miles that I wouldn’t let go right now for anything under $36k. You did fine based on current prices.
