Black C7 Z51
Found this C7 Z51 at a dealership. Its beautiful in person. Wasn't too fond of the rear end when they first revealed the C7 but.....in person its a gorgeous car. The only problem with this one is that they wanted 15K over the sticker. The guy told me that they wont budge on it because its a everyone is trying to buy this car right now. I'm sorry, I would not pay 15K over the sticker. I can wait.

isn't it sad how so many of these "smaller" dealerships will do this type of thing? it makes me sick....we live in a small town and they price their vettes 10k over msrp here....this is why they lose business like my husband's and mine...(we buy two at a time, his/hers) due to this greed, we will ALWAYS go to a forum dealer to make our deal...
are you in a small town?

Nope. I live in Los Angeles...big city. And, this dealership is big. The only thing is that this is the only dealership right now with a C7 on the lot. I have a C6 and wanted to get this C7, but not at 15K over the sticker. To make it worse, this salesman had the nerve to say that 15 thousand over is nothing for people with money (because I drove up with my Escalade), and that people will pay 15k over to be the first ones to own a new C7. No thanks. Not worth it. I may be young but I aint dumb.

i would not give $3k over sticker let alone $15k. Real Corvette guys should let this car sit. Since we are the one's actually buying these cars we need to boycott these types of dealers and get in GM butt about these dealers. Why is GM putting a sticker price on the car let dealers sale them at whatever they want by making up their own pricing.

Some dealers are just greedy. They already make over 10K in profit on these cars. The feeding frenzy will die down but it is good to remember who these dealers are when you go to make another purchase.

Whatever the market will bear. Dealers are in the market to make money, same as every other business that I can think of. Not to worry, they'll sell it at some point. I'll wager (far) above MSRP. Get over it.
