Default C7 Winter dealer discounts?

I saw some heave discounts last year but I wasn't ready to buy yet. I've been watching the dealer section here on the forum but discounts are small so far. If I don't see the right deal I'll hang on and check out the C8! I would like to find a C7 base model A8. I could live with most colors but actually like arctic white and blade silver. Chrome wheels and black interior would be outstanding. If anybody remembers when the discounts started getting good last year that would be good information. Thanks, Bob

Check with MacMulkin. They're doing 13% off MSRP on ordered vehicles

. This year could be a little different than previous years. Until we know for sure GM's plans for the 2020 model year, this could be the last year of what we now know as the C7. 2019's could be going for less of a discount if your choice next year is paying full boat list price on the C8.

I just ordered my 2019 1LT 7-Speed with Z-51 chrome wheels, red calipers, PDR with Nav, glass roof, battery package and Z-51 rear spoiler from Kerbeck on Saturday. I got 13% off with very little effort.

You're going to need to peruse cars.com as well, to find deals on C7s. Then, hone-in on your Chevrolet dealers online for the best and biggest discounts. I stole mine from a Chevrolet dealer by doing Internet searches.

Last Winter, starting in mid-December, there were great deals on the very leftover 2017's, which were still arriving on dealer lots until early July 2017, and GM had made the announcement that 2019 production was starting in early January (6-8 months earlier than usual), so there were also many left over 2018's to deal with - the dealer and factory incentives made it possible to get up to 22% off on 2017's and about 16% off on 2018's. The 13-15% off big dealers are giving right now is very good for a current model year. It all depends upon what happens with the 2020 model year as to whether discounts get better or not this winter. If March 31, 2019 is the end of the C7 production (no 2020 model), and with the C8 expected to be a sell-out until at least 2021, if C8 production doesn't start until the Fall (i.e., 4-6 months of down time), C7 deals might not get much better than 15% off, ever.
Right now, Kerbeck has about 180 C7's in stock or on order and MacMulkin has 153, which is about 3 months worth of sales in the current market sales volumes - assuming that inventory level holds, they won't need to fire sale any C7's before the C8's arrive. I expect the other big dealers are similarly situated.

C7 sales continue to decline, ....Corvette sales this year vs last year thru 3 quarters are down 21%, so I'm betting with winter coming that there will be plenty of great deals to be had.
