Default 2016 C7 Stingray Z51, Good price?

Hey new to this and found a 16 corvette for sale at a dealership and not sure if I should go with it or wait until the 17's come out. It's a 16 Corvette Stingray with the Z51 pkg. MSRP is $69,400 and I have it down to $57,900. Let me know what you all think. It seems like a really good deal to me, but I wnated to see what the professionals say

Price sounds good. I paid $54k for my manual 1LT '15 with no Z51, etc. And it was CPO. But that was a long time ago, now

Sorry it's been a bit. I think I'm going to hold off on it for right now. The dealer did drop the price down to $56,900. I'm torn because I think I would rather have the manual transmission, but the price is almost too good to pass up...

A 16 Corvette Stingray with the Z51 pkg for $57,900, 18% off MSRP sound real good. Although some forum vendors have offer 20% then again it there may not have the same equips and you would have the added cost for a Courtesy Delivery.

I don't think you find 2017 with a 18% discount especially those with a Z51 package,

Just ask yourself how will you feel if the car sales? Will you have regrets?

I hear ya. I'm working on getting a Z51 manual for 17.5% off msrp. There are better deals (ex. 20% off @ macmulkin) but getting the color/trans/option you want is worth something.

The A8 is an outstanding transmission. You will not be sorry, and on top of that, this is a great deal. No way, will you purchase a 2017 with that discount.

Suggestion: Hit autotrader.com, plug in the car(s) you'd be interested in, search nationwide, sort prices low to hi. Should give you some idea as to the current market. If you see something that you like, cut and past the VIN into Google to get the full specs on the car. Negotiate shipping or a "travelling allowance" in the price and bring'er home.

It's cheaper than some 2014s listed here on CF.

Those prices don't really reflect "the market." Very few of those cars sell for the asking price. There are deals to be had on '16s just by asking.
