2015 Corvette Price Increase
Effective today, the base price of each of the four 2015 Corvette models will have an increase in the base price of $1,000. Sold orders placed into the GM ordering system prior to the price increase will be price protected.
My guess is that this is the price GM wanted to have the entire time but they wanted to get people with unfilled 2014 Corvettes to get a chance at the old price, but that is only my guess.

This also means that all of the dealer's "stock" orders (we have over 130) will be at the new MSRP since they are not price protected.

Like I said in my first post, it was the right thing to do. There were a lot of people who ordered 2014 Corvettes with dealers who could not get the car built. This allowed those customers a chance to order a 2015 at the old price. Now, the new prices kick in.

I guess the forum members who suggested a price increase were right and those who constantly belittled them and insisted 2015's would remain with the same base price as the late edition 2014's are enjoying their crow.
Not surprised at all, and won't be surprised if we see another $1,000 increase in February 2015.
And, for those who believe the base price of a Z06 will be $80k - now that the Z51 has gone up $5,200 - they are dreaming.
