The C8 Stingrays are now pretty much selling from stock at MSRP. This week a brand new 2023 1LT HTC with some nice options and about 70 miles on the odometer AND on a MSO (never titled) went for about $100 BELOW sticker on BRING A TRAILER. The sticker was in the low $70's. People are beginning to back away from orders and there are cars showing up on the dealer's lots. They may ask $10 or 20K over sticker but they are happy to move 'em out at MSRP.

It was just a matter of time before the reality of the new interest rated sunk in. If you're a cash buyer or can afford the higher payments, you can find the right deal!

My very mildly optioned 1LT Coupe was $70K, an HTC has to be upper 70s at least.

Is there a rule against posting the name of your dealer? Just curious.

NO, I thought everyone knew by now (Bob Steele) and it is in the https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...alerships.html thread. I'd do an intro and aid in the dedicated hand-off that may assist vs going in cold. Member choice.

Apologies accepted. If you didn't wait until 2921 (profile) to get your Game Changer, you'd already know. Just kidding. Newer may not know I did the first SS during covid, but I mistakenly assumed members of years had seen it. Sorry, my bad. Seriously.

There’s a couple of dealerships here in the Sacramento area with Corvettes on the showroom floor, but at 30k over MSRP, they can keep them.

Going on, what...4 years into the model run, and the now high and soon higher interest rates and a recession coming, I think wait times will be dropping and ADM's will be trending to just MSRP. I read in the Wall Street Journal that car sales are now slowing down due to the interest rates.

If the price drop for a Game Changer is real (Personally, I do not think so yet), Bob Steele would not have a "Market Adjustment". They did not have one on mine and they did not have one until late into 2021My/Early 2022MY. Even then it was only $5K at the time. This dealership is very fair and when the market actually slows down, It will be gone. They just sold 2 Z's at $50K over MSRP and the 2 customers had no problem paying it. I know 1 of them personally.

Again, I offered this strictly as a community service announcement knowing how hard it is for some members to find a Great dealer, not a MSRP pricing thread. Take advantage if desired or no comment.

I unfortunately had to go to my dealership to deal with another nail in tire, but I remembered to take pics of the HTC he has available. Again, just mentioning it's available, pm if you want me to introduce you to my salesman.

Interesting- as I was walking around I came across a new Silverado. It also had a 10% market adjustment $57K => $63K. Not unique to C8s. Supply and demand across many platforms.

Update. All their vehicles have the market adjustment on the sticker. Part of the negotiations now.

I walked in the showroom at Hertrich Chevrolet in Salisbury Md last Tuesday and bought a new 2033. Elkhart Lake blue and black interior. They had just got it in. I wasn’t even thinking of buying a new Corvette but the made me a terrific deal on trading my C7 ZO6!

Lol imagine paying a markup on a standard Stingray in 2023. Literally paying $10k because you don't want to send MacMulkin an email.
