I don't get why the premiere editions get extra money (or really most other special edition vettes). The "rarity" doesn't do it for me, especially because someone could order those options as a custom build. No way it's worth $60K to me, but that green is the best C7 color.

Save your clicks, don't see it on their website, unless I missed it.

Essentially what my car is. LRG, Z51, 3LT, brownstone interior... but a coupe. I do like the premiere edition wheels for their simplicity.

As stated earlier sounds like a premier edition. I had car #22 in the coupe series. It was a solid, trouble-free car. Even though I love my current Z06, that premier edition was my first C7 and it was a great car and fun since they came with every possible option offered in 2014.

I have car # 219. This car gets compliments every time I drive it. While the price is on the high side of normal for the current market, the car is worth every dime of it. You'll kick yourself if you let it get away.

I looked at one just like it in 2015 at a dealer. Less than 2000 miles. $58,000. Beautiful car, loved the brown interior. Someone bought it while I was looking at it.

It kind of sounds like the 2014 C7 I bought in May of 2019. It was a Z51, 3 LT, A6 with only 8 (yes, 8) miles on it. I was told by the dealer that all fluids were changed and a new battery was installed. Whether that is true I don't know. The dealer I bought it from purchased it from another dealer. The car has been absolutely problem free. Enjoy!

Difficult to determine actual condition from the small photos dealerships post.

I can understand a hesitation when small photos are used, but given the vehicle has only 1,050 miles and the OP speaks as if he had seen the Corvette in person, it don't sound too difficult to determine the actual condition.

If the photos are that much of an issue, perhaps you should reach out to the dealership.

One of the things I've learned from buying/selling dozens of sportscars from all over the country over the last 44 years, is that low mileage is no "GAURANTEE" of condition.
And I don't see where the OP speaks as if he has seen this C7 in person.
