Default C7 value

Just had my car appraised. 2015 torch red 2LT a/8 with z51 look alike package 10,000 miles all stock.

I paid 61, it stickered 68. They offered 54 on the spot in less than 5 minutes. they said even though this car is not in our wheel house they would love to have it. This was not the dealer I bought it from. KBB has "excellent" trade in 53.4.


Interesting..Manheim says they are basically going for that at auction...

Are you asking A question?Or are you just trying to say what you'll get for your car.
Um are you trying to sell your car?I mean cars lose their value,what can you say.

Seems low. For comparison purposes, I redid the loan on my 2lt 14 earlier this week. 8k miles, m7, nav, npp )
My credit union says its value is 55.6 (paid 62)

Dealer gives you $54,000, they will turn around and probably list it at $59,000 then take $58,000.

The potential buyer will think he is getting a good deal with a $1000 reduction.

These C7's are being picked up at auctions by dealers then marking them up $3000 to $4000 on their lots.

No not asking question...I realize they loose value as I've purchased 45 or more lol...

I was just stating a dealer that does not sell Corvettes offered 54...basically a wholesale offer so on that regard is isn't a bad deal..I could probably get another grand from them if I pressed.

This is what I think too...except to me is seems a little retarded to invest 54k for 3k profit?
