It is definately turning. I am looking to buy and now everything seems like it getting out of reach. Good luck with your sale.

Default Prices are out of control for sure!!

The market condition at present is much higher then last year and the prices on auction started earlier but with fewer vettes in excellent condition with low mileage.

Manheim did have a Z-06 in Jan that went to a dealer for $79,000 so go figure.

I keep waiting for the deluge of vettes that have been put away to come out but so far they haven't.

My advice is if you see something you like buy it or else you will wait until next year.

In another 2 weeks the seasonal buyers will come out in droves and most of them will be first time buyers and they will pay top dollar for sure.

Don't try to be to smart or you will lose for sure.

Alan

My two cents.
