Default Spring awakening

Spring awakening!

Love this car! Have to decide if I want to trade up to the C7 ZR1.

Only 1925 miles.... I resolve to drive it more this season, no sense in letting the next guy get the better deal.

Continue enjoying it and be "the next guy (to) get the better deal" on a slightly used C7 ZR1!

Why eat depreciation twice if you are still enjoying yours with miles so low a few thousand more likely won't affect the value anyway?

And PM me when you are ready to sell yours.

OP, only you can make the best decision on that question. But, I agree with WideVette, you have a great low mileage ZR1, take it out, drive and enjoy it. You've taken a high depreciation hit already. So put a few miles on it and have some fun. In the mean time give GM a few years to work out the bugs in the 4th gen ZR1. If history is any judge the 2021 or 2022 ZR1 is going to be better than the 2019 intro model.

Yeah. I'll never by a C7 ZR1 without a discount. I got 25% my ZR1.
I'm all about buying down the depreciation.

I agree. That's why I'm interested in yours at now a 50% discount!

Gorgeous car!

Love the MF Cups on a ZR1. Hard to beat that look. OP, that thing is a keeper!

Unless you "absolutely have to have one now"...drive yours a bit more and wait a year or two and then grab a C7ZR1 garage queen at a discount.
