Default Price increase from year to year ?

Wondering what the price increase will be roughly from a 2017 GS to a 2018 GS. What was the price % increase for 2016 to 2017 Z06 or Z51 . I can't ask about GS being 2017 was first year for GS in C7. Just trying to get a idea what the same 2017 GS might cost in a 2018 model year. Thanks Dave

Whatever the price increase may or may not be would be insignificant to how much the cars are being discounted due to slow or fast sales. Not the answer you wanted but I think it has more merit.

I understand about how much the car is being discounted by dealer will play in regards to cost, I'm just trying to find out what the cost increase was from one year to the next for the new model year on a similar optioned model corvette. I get GMS so when ordering dealer discount may not be a factor as when buying from stock were dealer discounts might be more than GMS when you include bonus tag money or other incentives that can't be use with GMS pricing. Thinking increase 1-3 % for new model year car.

I have been watching prices for the last year. I was ready to buy a Z51 last year when the Grand Sport was announced. I decided to wait for a GS and it seemed like every time I was about ready to buy the discounts just kept getting bigger so I waited and finally bought one last month. I am not sure what the exact increase from 2016 to 2017 was but it was pretty small. Maybe just a couple percent. Discounts with bonus tags from forum dealers currently exceed $10K.

MY problem is the combo I want is not common. I will have to order to get what I want . received quotes on my trade and wanting for last one this week and planning to order last week of March. That got me wondering of increase if I went 18 with same optioned car.

That is the biggest question LT5, A10. A10 would sway me too a 18. Can't find any info on 18 changes yet. At this point if 18 was same as 17 and was a 1 or 2 % increase in price I might get 18.
