The C5 and C6 are too similar for me to ever own one of each (if I had crazy spare $, I'd get my wife a really nice SUV first, otherwise maybe add an old muscle car, a nice BMW, who knows, but not 2 Corvettes). If I were to replace my C5Z with another Corvette, either of the C6's sound decent. I don't like the C7 at all, so scratch them off.

My first choice would be the ZR1 followed by the '17 Grand Sport.

The industry is reporting that dealers have a huge inventory of C7's nationwide - somewhere north of 200 days supply. Costco recently added the Corvette to their "factory pricing" program, which Chevy has not done before and which indicates they are having difficulty moving them. There should be some good deals to be had.
Me? I'd go for the ZR1 if I wanted to stay in Corvetteland. But for $60k you could get a nice new ZL1 Camaro, which quite frankly would tempt me a whole lot more than it's mechanical "twin" the Z06, where the price includes about $20k of "Corvette Tax". There's a very positive road test in this month's Car & Driver.
