I think the prices are finally starting to stabilize and even go down a bit but I don’t plan on buying until they get back down to a more reasonable cost.

Another thing to consider, if an economic “cliff” happens at the end of this year we may see more cars for sale and at reasonable prices. At this point I’m just going to wait and see what happens.
I think what you are seeing is not that car values are rising but that the reasonably priced cars have been sold and what you have left are the overpriced ones. I do all my buying in the Jan-May period because by the time you get to mid May most of the nice and fairly priced cars are gone and pretty much all that is left are the overpriced and modded cars.

sorry to be off topic. but does anyone know why there are so many Z06's for sale? i notice that the ratio of Z06 to regular Coupe/GS/Verts are a lot higher on this forum compared to autotrader for example.

From the people that I have known that now have or have owned Z06's they seem to get bored with them in a short time. They are pretty much just about performance and with no convert or removable top available they have fairly limited use on the street and unless you track them they can become boring for just street use.

The guy that bought my pace car convert came to look at it in a brand new Z06 with 3,000 miles on it. Now 2 years later he drives the pace car convert he bought from me and was bored with the Z06 and sold it.
