^ Say what ????? :confused2: So the more they produce, the lesser the supply? :eek:

I could not wait, I had to buy one, with only a 2K discount. No regret. Money is paper, not fond of paper, I am fond of cars. I will trade the paper for the car any day.

:iagree:

Well stated! :thumbs:

I'm waiting on the prices to come down more on the C6 and C7. No hurry here and I like both. There is a nice 2012 GS 3LT trim level with only 350 miles here in Houston for $49K (they would probably take $45K) but I can't see paying that when I can get a 2014 C7 non Z51 for $10K more when they start sitting on the lots soon.

No worries, it's not ignorance to ask what seems like the most logical question. Dealers in the US have their hands tied, if they sell to a Canadian who does not have a residence in the US they can loose the ability to sell the car. Until this model release the list price of the Vette in Canada was US list + $10K penalty (I say penalty as there was not other explanation when the dollar has been at par or better for 3 years). It was tempting for someone like me to drive the 45 minutes and save the cash so all the manufacturers banned sales to "out of country residents".

I've bought most of my toys in the US and the paperwork to bring one back is easy, the issue is it has to be "used". With the used cars asking price over MSRP it makes no sense.

:iagree:...and that's about the time I'll be buying mine...:cheers:

:iagree: Besides, if I understand dealer "hold back", the car cannot sit on the dealer's lot longer then something like 90 days, or there is no holdback paid. That is why a factory order is actually the best deal for the dealer and why at the end of the day, the buyer should be able to factory order most new American cars at somewhere near invoice...

Or something like that... :flag:

C6's will drop at a faster rate than a c7, and it is proven in the for sale section.

Yes, at the end of next summer you should be able to get at least 10% off msrp so I wouldn't pay a dime more. That's because you have to keep in mind that you're buying a car that's already a year old and the resale on it the very same day you drive off the lot will be the same as the guys that got one a month ago. :cheers:

Show us the quotes and the dealer's names of all these places where they are falling fast.

You really hit it big time!!!! While they're sitting around waiting for the prices to drop, we're out there enjoying every mile. Oh.... and when the sticker price goes up a couple grand in the coming years (and we're thinking about replacing the tires on our Z51's) I can't wait to hear 'em bragging about getting a real deal on theirs. By the way, my local dealer already has one on the used car lot for a few dollars off the sticker and it only has 500 miles. Seems the buyer already upgraded to a Z51 'vert'. Life is short and you're goin' to be dead for a real long time....

I am curious what will happen to the C7 pricing when the HP model like the Z06 comes out. I am also wondering if first gen owners will do the same thing and buy the body kit to convert what they have to look like the new performance model. I think someone has already made a wide body version and it will be interesting to see how close that one is to what GM releases. Going to be interesting to watch the C7 play out just like to was watching the evolution of the C6.

I think dealers trying to keep allocations ordered non Z51s hoping they would move quickly during the constraints. Now the driving seasons coming to a close for the north, they need to get them sold. Also second round allocations to dealers who were unable to get C7s will soon be jumping in to try and get in the game.

Why do I get the feeling this makes you happy? Oh wait, I know :lol:

Had an ad last week for 2K off premiere edition.

I see a few things affecting the market: Z51 cars are constrained, they can't be built or sold in any volume at any price; the Z51 package is a steel at $2800, so non Z51 cars need to be discounted to sell. So, if dealers would rather sell something than sell nothing, they're discounting non-Z51 cars. That's not exactly a big shift in market demand, it's more of a response to constraints. Don't get me wrong, I'd rather pay less myself but realistically I don't see any real price weakening yet.

You are a just a C 7 hater plain and simple . I'm so sick of your negative post.

If the guy is who someone else said he was with a previous screen name, I got so tired of his anti-C7 snark shots that I made negative remarks, in one post, about some chrome doo-dads he had added to his C6 and he went absolutely psychotic before being banned. Ain't that always the way though. :crazy: :crazy2: :crazy:

^ If the guy is who someone else said he was with a previous screen name, he has no business being here, imho.

It's him. That avatar pic is the same one that Torched posted a few times. He posted pics of a few cars in the same location. He also posted pics of an SSR. He took a lot of flack for claiming to have connections in the Bowling Green plant that would give people tours outside of the standard BG tours. He said he traded favors and let these people come to studios where he works filming TV/movies.
Eventually, those posts/pictures will be found and he'll be exposed for who he is...a twice-banned member who has returned under a new screen name where he misspelled "lightning". :lolg:
