Default Observation...

There is a certain major internet website I check daily for 2014 Stingrays (mostly for fun, as I already have one on order) and it seems to me that in the past couple of weeks the number of available cars has dwindled by nearly 50% from a high of about 110 available for sale to 66 today.

I wonder what gives?

I observe about 20 per day on Ebay. I got a great deal there on mine.

Default Price increase

Spring definitely has something to do with it, but I think getting the ones that were built before the price increase is another reason.

The best deal I saw on that website was a few months ago. There was a dealer in Omaha that had a black/black 2LT coupe for invoice (retail was like $64,000 and his price was under $58,000.00). I would have bought the car right then but I just did not want a black C7 (nothing against those who like a black Stingray, just not my taste).

What site? I'm still trying to order one using Supplier discount pricing. Z51 is still in high demand and expect it will be for a little while longer. Orders will be placed for '15's in a few months and I may find my deal then.
