What is it worth? 2016 Z51 2LT
Looking at a Used 2016 Z51 2LT, pretty nicely equipped:
- PDR/NAV
- 8 Speed Auto
- Mag Ride
- Carbon Fiber Int. Package
- Low Miles, under 3000
- Original Sticker $73,500.00
- Asking $56,500.00

That's actually about book. Don't be afraid to insult them. Remember you can always come up on your offer but you can never go down. I'd through out $42K and go from there. Probably a good deal at $50K.
Keep in mind that for 65K (8,500 more than they want) you can get a 2017 GS minus a couple of the goodies like the carbon fiber and PDR. With zero miles in the color of your choice. It's a buyers market.

Being in California it seems the dealers there feel their Corvettes are better than anywhere else in the country. Therefore they ask a ton more. I'm going to step out on a limb, and say for your area that's not too bad. And like springer say, don't be afraid to insult them. You can compare prices by looking checking www.autotrader.com for pre-owned Vettes, or www.kbb.com and www.nada.com for book prices.

Deduct 10K for the A8 tranny that will likely cause you much misery.

that's the unknown, I am afraid of, have heard horror stories! I am currently driving a 6 speed standard Audi A5, so a manual is also in consideration.This one is Certified Pre-Owned as well, so a little bit of piece of mind there.

Check the door jam for the Date of Manufactured; if it's after Nov '16, your good with the A8. Also remind them that right now you can buy new C7 Base and Z51's at 20% off....that would be $15K off that cars sticker "NEW", then deduct going on 2 years old plus mileage.
Good luck

I assume you meant Nov '15 as all Nov '16 builds would be 2017 models.
The build start date on this one was 12/28/2015

Prices are heading south quick due to supply and demand. Some members here said the C7 value will never drop like the C6 did.
A8 issues have me worried about buying one, curious to see how the post Nov 16 ones hold up since there are not that many and most Corvette owners don't drive their cars anyway. With my C6 I had trouble keeping it down to 1k miles a month and that is with 4 months of winter.

I paid $47800 for a 2016 Z51 1LT with magride, NAV/PDR, M7, painted wheels, red calipers, and the car was perfect with 2600 miles. Bought at a Chevy dealer. This S was about 3 months ago.
For a 2LT with automatic and some more options I would target $50-52K.
