If you are willing to travel the 17s can be found over 20% off from a couple of the forums big dealers. I got close to 25% off my 2016 1LT last October with no loyalty discount. Kerbeck gave me a call and said they had 3 cars meeting the specs I had asked about so I pulled the trigger on the black M7 for 45K

Use this website. https://www.cargurus.com/

The used search will also work for new cars and sometimes pulls things up better.

I don't think 20% is available yet, best I have seen is 15% and then layoalty on top if you qualify

car gurus doesn't seem to pull most of what I'm seeing at dealers. I assume this is a pay service that the dealer has to submit vehicles to?

Looks like the 47K for 1LT does include the corvette loyalty. Thought I saw 22% off a few weeks back but it probably included the 2K loyalty bonus

Five months ago I purchased a 2016 Twilight Blue Design Edition 3LT convertible...MSRP $80,200 for $61,000. Found the car in PA. That's a 24% discount all day everyday no matter how you do the math. They are out there.

I am also in the market. What I am finding is that most of the left over 2016 cars are either fully loaded or close to it. They might take 20% off of the car but that still puts the price in the high 50's to low 60's price range. The 2017 discounts on the Grand Sport 1LT is in the same ball park. Now I'm asking myself new Grand Sport or 2016 loaded out Corvette. I'm thinking Grand Sport even if it is a 1LT. That car still comes with a load of options.

Just bought one on Saturday. 2016 2LT Z51. 26% off list including all rebates. Also 0% financing, with a $ 4000 discount being part of all discounts. $500 down payment.

Everything you've said makes sense. However, if you think that you'll only have the car for a couple of years just remember that a 2017 1LT take a larger percent drop in value than a 16 3LT car...given of course that they were purchased at deep discounts. Keep in mind that it's easier to sell a 3LT car most of the time. You would have more to enjoy for a smaller hit. There's nothing like a loaded up C7, just sayin... Good luck to you - what ever you buy!

Get the 17 1LT GS over the 16 3LT....I bet a GS will hold its value better than a Stingray.

Marks Casa in Albuquerque has a nice leftover 16 Laguna Blue manual on black leather​, I believe a 2lt. I think they'd dump it.

is was easy for me - I looked at my new car on the lot every week sence last July , I just couldn't trade a 2016 z51 (9 months old) for a zo6 2016 !!!! Then march 14 when I was pricing a 2018 GS (460 hp again) the salesman told me ( long story short ) I could have the 2016 zo6 for the same money as 2018 GS and be driving the zo6 today!!! Anyway to answer your question - look at inside edge of drivers door your build date will be there on tire pressure sticker than will tell you about how long car has been on lot . Just remember it takes up to two months to get to dealer lot sometimes

Hey savage, I want to get a Z06, but I am having a really hard time parting with the GS I have had for 8 mos. Tell me why the Z06 is worth it to you? What trans did you get?

Default 2016 Black on Red 2LT Z-51

Sticker $71560 no trade out the door 61k no money down except rebates no loyalty 0% for 72 months. Texas dealer other dealers around here said they couldn't get there. They do have a 2016 2LT Z-51 Laguna Blue they would like to get rid of I believe. My car was $56700 I think taxes killed me.
