Looks like the sales have slowed and the inventory is begining to build. Which means prices should start to go down soon, very soon. By January, coupes will be discounted $3k-5k. Convertible prices will still be near list for a while.

I have been to Kerbecks three times within the last three weeks (the last time to order mine) and the C6's are flying out of there. They have been continually getting them in and are being sold as fast as they are arriving.

Before you start labeling the guy a troll... how many C5's were on dealers lot available to buy after a month and a half or so of launch?

It's an interesting question. It would be nice to know how the 2 gens
sales compare in the launch through end of calendar year period. Do you have any idea how to get this information?

IMO, since there are C6s that arrive at dealers as stock orders there likely were C5s as well. It is the same ordering process.

I don't think there is enough information available yet to make an accurate statement on C6 sales.

I posted this reply once before and I'll say it again...

I bot my 2002 Coupe at Kerbeck and was given a "whopping" $2500 discount off list. I doubt that they will feel the need to dump their incoming C6s at a discount this soon. I keep checking their inventory and see no more than 1-2 cars sitting around waiting to be sold.

I don't know how to get that exact info... but it "seems" like there were waiting lists well pretty much into the 1998 model year...

You have to remember that they didn't start selling 97 C5 until February.
