Default Just curious about C6 prices........

What exactly will dealerships do with excess C6's when the C7 debuts, guaranteed there will be a few C6Z's kicking around in the fall and with news of the C7 who exactly will be buying a base C6 now? Will dealerships drop their pants and bend over just to sell remaining stock? I personally will not buy a C6 no matter what the price and I'm sure I'm not alone. I suppose there will be some suckers out there who will buy a C6, probably the same type of people who bought a 2010 Mustang GT in 2010

Sorry if this has been covered already but oh well, if you know me then you know IDGAF.

It's a solid peforming platform. For folks that want to get one, the next few months may prove to be a great time to buy one new. Likely will be able to get an awful lot of sports car for a great price.

The C6 is still a great performance/value package. Prices (after discounts) will be less than the C7 (likely zero discounts).

OP, do you not like the C6 ?

Why such curiosity if you ' personally will not buy a C6 no matter what the price' ?

O/p, not sure why you feel that way. Sure, the C7 is very advanced from the C6. However, if I can get my hands on the 427 vert I want, you better believe I'll buy it over the C7.

I'm getting a 2013 GS for 15 grand off sticker. I'll take that all day long. The C7 doesn't do it for me and even if it did I'm not paying sticker or above sticker for any car ever. But I'm sure there will be plenty of suckers like yourself who will drop their pants and bend over just to be the first to own a C7.

Im not convinced the 2013 will kill the c6. The c6 is a such a great car. Its fairly simple and can easily outperform the c7 with a few bolt ons. The 80000 price tag on the c7 and in my opinion it not a very pretty car. Ill still be a c6 guy for a long time!!

So the base c7 will cost 80k?

Inflation's a bitch I guess.....

I know right. Ive herd 70,ive herd 90. The latest is 80 but have you seen all the unnecessary bs in the c7. To complicated for me. I just want a good performing car. Not a luxury car.
