I see, turn this into a personal attack on me. Wow, now I know why a lot of Corvette owners can be real jerks. :ack:

I never said I bought new. I bought the car used.

If you paid attention. My 2008 had a MSRP of over $61k, it is now valued at around $35k. It lost around 40%-43% +/- of its original MSRP value, which brings its value to around $35k- $36.5K

I am very highly doubtful that GM just gave him a brand new car. I believe he did some type of trade-in and had to put forth out of pocket $$$ to cover the differences between the cars.

Sales numbers? The 2010 & 2011 Z06/ZR1/GS sales figures are atrocious. The past 2 years were the worse sales years for Corvette in decades. They only produced like 300 Z06's in 2010. How is that...
