Nope. 1,304 were built and that is too many to make it more valuable.

I think it will, but only by 2 cents.
And, that's my 2 cents.

Probably won't be more valuable, but may trade a little easier. May be a little more in demand.

You guys are just jealous that you don't have one. Of course it will be more valuable. You are just in denial. Any color that beautiful can't help but being more valuable.

Of course, they're all more valuable if you don't drive them much.

Sorry, Ted. Hope you get to drive yours again before too much longer. Believe it or not, I do wish I still had mine.

Here you are again. What's your source to give such an unverified opinion?

Modern Corvettes are just used cars as they age.

If you see the Barrett-Jackson auction you'll see Vettes that bring big money...they are low production cars and very few good examples left.

Trust me your "Precision Red" Vette will just be a "Red Corvette" in a few years.

I say this with respect to your beautiful car...I have a "Victory Red" vert inbound and in a few years it too will be just another "red" Corvette.

Yes there will be someone who likes "that dark red vette" as opposed to "the bright red vette" but nothing more.

Lars

If I give my source on information that I post, I would not be able to get other information when needed. I probably have a dozen people who I can ask questions. It depends on which area they have more knowledge of. Sometimes I may get info and asked not to post it and other times they want the correct info out there.

The 1,304 number for Precision Red has been widely acknowledged since my original report that I made at the end of the PR build.

I was looking at the roads today, many are drying out, but they are like dirt roads and where the big piles of snow are melting there are mud holes. Not to mention huge potholes.
