I am currently on order at Radley Chevrolet in Fredericksburg, VA and im priority level one at this premier dealer and was wondering what do you guys think the pricining will be for the the vette with the Z51 package? If I had to guess 50k for base and 5k for Z51? what do you guys think?

55k for the base and 60k for a Z51 LT1 65-68k for a LT3 and more if you add options on top of it and that is at MSRP. That's my guess anyways

I think they said it was "attainable". Third parties, like car mags, seem to be estimating $53-55,000 for the base, unoptioned car. At 2LT with Z51 and performance exhaust I'd bet we are looking at $65,000 and up. More if your dealer is selling above MSRP.

"Chevrolet wasn't specific about Stingray's pricing, but did say that car buyers who can afford a currently available Corvette will be able to afford this new Stingray when it's released sometime during the third quarter of this year. Currently, 2013 Corvettes can be obtained at a starting price of $49,600, with most of them costing at least $55,000 once a buyer has added a few options."

The last time I looked at 2013 C6 pricing For the Coupe:

Base 1LT $50575. GS $56975. Diff $6400
Base 2LT $52720. GS $59120. Diff $6400 overall $8545 BS1LT to GS3LT
Base 3LT $56570. GS $62970. Diff $6400 overall $12395 BS1LT to GS3LT

I suspect the Base C7 price may rise a little but the GS price should stay the same or even drop a little with only one C7 version that replaces both the base and the GS on the line saving costs. But remember the C6 GS included Z51 features just not as many features as the C7 Z51 so price may rise somewhat.

I suspect at least the GS prices for the C7 Coupe, maybe a little lower?

Options are different too between packages as well. So go figure.

Do you think a base with the Z51 package will have the competition seats? So the price of a Z51 could be around 57-60?

No, that will be an extra added option, maybe only offered on Z51 equipped C7s.

Completion seats are available option in the sales brochure,
They are not standard on a Z51. If you get it got 60k MSRP consider yourself lucky. They will mark them up 10k for the first batch. You got to find a dealer that will charge for MSRP only so you have to do your homework. I will never pay MSRP even. The economy will dictate this. If we al wait til next year and don't buy the first year cars imagine how much they will prolly drop the price lol supply and demand is simple economics. But that won't happen too many rich people like to throw their money always cuz they can afford to. Not me. I'll wait a year of two I don't need the car that bad

I'm planning on spending around 63-65k for a 2lt Z51 manual with comp seats....that's just my guess.

I'm assuming a totally unoptioned vette to be 55k

Don't you belong in the camaro5 forum? Lol or did you sell your ZL1?

What's up man! I was with you when we were going thru all the crap about the delayed production. I had one on order as well but canceled it and bought my vette at the same dealership.

Now been pondering the C7.

And if you live in Canada the base price will be................north of $65K not including an additional 15% sales tax in my neck of the woods, anyway.
