Default 2015 pricing?

Any insight as to when the car/option pricing for the 2015's is going to be available?

Not too soon, so GM doesn't lose and potential 2014 C7 buyers, but not too late, so 2015 C7 buyers don't look for a different make of car.

In other words, whatever date is most convenient for GM, not the buyer.

Was told by my dealer when I placed my order that the Z51 package was going to go up by 4-5k... this made sense to me as the price would obviously go up with the crazy demand AND the inclusion of the NPP with the Z51 for '15.
The standard pricing is a different storry... who knows... I guess we'll have to wait for July.

That's what I heard too....about $2,500 for a base and $4,000 for Z51. Who knows, but that's what my dealer friend told me.

That seems awful high considering the '14 went up $2000 for the base and $3200 for Z51, just a couple of months ago.

Not really when you consider they have included a $1200+ option on the Z51 and there is a massive demand for the car. I don't think it's unrealistic... I never said it was fair.... But realistic, yes...

My understanding is a very small change on the base if at all and the Z51/NPP is about $900.00 more than their combine 2014 price.
If GM gets greedy it will backfire on them, specially now with all the recall problems they are facing.

I think the availability of ZF1 option will reduce Z51 demand. It makes no sense for the Z51 package to increase by $4k.

Well, if that's the case I will be one very happy Corvette owner soon. I placed my order without having available pricing with the assumption there would be an increase... If it's less than I thought...

I highly doubt they would price the Z51 package at $7500-$8500. If so, that's ridiculous for something that was $2800 just a few months ago. I'm glad I was able to get my 2014 order through. I also don't get why some dealers keep throwing prices out there when they really have no clue. I had one guy tell me the Stingray would have a $7500 price increase for 2015. Just wait and see, fellas. These guys don't have crystal *****.

So very happy with the 59k I paid for a new 2014 2LT vert with auto trans, NPP, Nav, and sueded seat inserts. From what I am reading, I am pretty sure I won't see that car again new for anywhere near that price...

Sounds excessive.. most dealers I've spoken with -- admittedly it's speculation -- think it'll be 1-2%, given the march increase.

So $500-1000 on the base, slightly more for z51.

I opted for the 14, just in case...I figured that while i may take a model year depreciation, it might even out if the 15s end up being 2500-4k more.

Who knows. It's all a guessing game.

yeah I'd be ok with 1-2 grand, but 5+ wouldn't be acceptable.

I strongly considered a 14 but cyber grey was gone by the time I was ready.
