Good combo with that roof :-) That puts my calculated total to $90,895. Close enough, thanks for filling in that void!

I'm partial to the CE's btw, so I'll abstain :-)

Ok, I’m gonne have to ask, most everybody says get the Z06 yet if you look at used sales tons of Z06’s are for sale but few used GS’s... so if everyone loves Z06’s so much why are they selling?
GS all the way imo😉

A lot of guys not me are selling their Z06'S because they want the ZR1 or ME is my guess.

First year of GS was 2017 so you won't see a lot for sale. Z06 has been around a few years longer.

Could it also be because insurance on a z06 is way higher than a GS?

Insurance for my Z06 is $6 per month higher than what paid for my 2013 GrandSport

I think you need to make a decision on if you want a Grand Sport or a Z06. Personally I think if you're trying to decide the purchase based on which will hold their value more you're looking at it wrong.

I have all of the new ones located, I don't track the current asking price on them though, that was just too many bits of info to track :-)

Hey thank you, I found that sight after I posted. Looking for a 2017 GS new, that one is only eight miles away. Looks like a lot of them are still available across the USA.

Glad it helped, that was the idea of tracking some of that stuff, to help people locate them.

Some of them may no longer be active of course, I don't check them that regularly, but there shouldn't be more new ones than are listed on that spreadsheet.

I'm in the process of working on a new registry that will hopefully provide a better way of looking at the data as well as track history of specific vehicles a little better (owner history, used sales, etc).

Get the Z06 they will always hold the dollar better and they are a much faster sports car. Resale on the GS is not as good! Harder to sell ! That's why the dealer STILL has it!

You will regret not buying the Z06! Do it right the first time!

The Z06 is the higher profile but there have been enough nits to pick with it that I might go with the GS but it's very close and I picked Oklahoma and Clemson to meet tomorrow night so what do I know............
