Default Used Z06

Does anyone else believe that the Z06 will be available soon at a reasonable price? they are still ridiculous priced used and you can buy a new one cheaper if you find it. just crazy to me. JMO

You can buy a Z06 at MSRP now. If you are spending around $120k, is it worth waiting for a liitle discount under MSRP.
You may like champagne but it will never be the price as beer.
Do you really need a Z06? Can you afford a Z06? Do you really want a Z06?
If the answers are yes, don't whine about it, buy one. If you need help finding one, ask!
Good luck and best wishes. Make your dream a reality.

^^^^ yes there was a post in the Z section about a dealer with 3 for msrp. Remember the '19s were discounted 19% at the end of the C7 run.

Define reasonable...but yes, the nonsense will soon be over and new ones will be at, or under, MSRP.

FOMO is real....don't buy into it.

Buddy showed me a text from a dealer that stated there are ~50 new Z06 sitting @MSRP at dealers across the US right now

NO I dont need a Z06, but Yes I want one. I can afford it but I dont like to be Stupid with my money. I have a C8 Z51 now and absolutely love it. I just want that extra power and sound that you cant get from a regular C8. Yes I can spend money and modify mine now but I dont like to modify a car for me that I will never get back when I try and sale it. I know thew business very well and have been in it for over 20 years as a GM for most of that with Ford. Not trying to start an argument here, I am just jokingly asking a question. thanks

Naw we're not arguing at all.......... you need to define stupid with money !!! If you drop 120K today and the same car will be say 108K in a year..... is it worth taking that hit? Only you can answer that. BTW no one needs a lot of what we buy!!!! I'd enjoy your C8 for a while. Of course its value will be less in the future too. Honestly you can't go wrong.

If the current market for used Stingrays is any sign for the used Z06 market, its going to be awhile before they come down. That doesn't mean dealers won't start discounting them more...but current used C8 Corvette sellers not asking reasonable prices IMHO.

Currently, most used Stingrays are being offered barely below their MSRP along with full price for ad-ons like ceramic coating, PPF, tinted windows, and aftermarket exhausts. Like I've said in other posts, these owners are delusional and people like me, who are in the market, don't even want to engage with them as their pricing is basically a "pie in the sky". At some point the dam will break, most likely when warranties expire, and 2020 and 2021 models will fall into the 50's and even less. Its the law of simple supply and demand.
