Default Reasonable price

Hello, Im looking to buy my first corvette and wanted to see what a good/reasonable price would be for a base model. I Prefer black, and im not sure if that would factor into price at all.

There is no set price, just research listings and determine your budget.

Typically Black/Convertible/Automatic are less desirable so tend to sit around a little longer and may be a smidge cheaper.

Depending on the mileage you are looking at, the condition you are looking at, the year and options you are looking at, what's good or reasonably priced will vary. Just start looking at cars that are for sale and try to buy the best one for you that's in your price range. Once you start looking you will get an idea of price range and what's considered a good deal or not by comparing them to the others that are for sale. It's better to start shopping before you are ready to pull the trigger so that you can gauge the market and be ready to recognize a good deal if it does comes around.

The market you are in is going to dictate - an LS2 base is no cheaper than $30K CDN in my neck of the woods (unless the mileage or condition is significant). LS3/ 2008+ seem to creep much higher.

Black is the best colour

In October I purchased a 2013 Base Vert Automatic. 2LT with NAV, NPP EXHAUST, HUD and magnetic ride for around 28 with 29k miles on it.

It's easier for us to tell you what condition car you could get for your budget than use to guess how crappy or nice of a car you're willing to accept
