first corvette deal
Hi all
Well I am going to pick up my Corvette tomorrow.
My first one.
Is this a good deal?
Red Coupe, stick shift, no fancy options ,LT1
2011 with 272 miles on it. Almost new
Some guy traded it in for a BMW
I had the vin checked a the chevy dealer and it is good.
I am paying $40000 for it.
Is this a good deal?
Thanx

I'd say it's a good deal. It's one year old ('12s are out now), and it has practically no miles at all.
A leftover, new, '11 base coupe, 1LT, no extras (presume there are no other extras---you don't say), should go for right about that number or a little less. It has in the past years been sold at right about that number.
Good deal! Now, the "requirement" here at CF is pictures. So, learn how to post up pics, and get with it! Welcome aboard, too.

If it what you want in a Corvette you did fine. Buying a current model year Corvette after next years model is out is a easy way to save your self several K. A 1LT Base is a great place to start with your first Corvette or your 5th Corvette for that matter. Same motor, frame and basic materials as more pricy Vettes just less options. First priority is to enjoy your car. Take time to research this forum on everything Corvette you can think of from battery protection, top tier gas, waxes etc. Any issue or question you have has likely been discussed. Good stuff for old and new Corvette owners. Remember there are only two kinds of people, those who drive Corvette and those who wish they could.
