The right timing

Hi
i have been without a vette for 3+ yrs and would love to get back in. Being that the C8 is coming out is this the right time
to buy a C7 or should l wait another year?

Also what years should l avoid a la auto tranny problems. Must have front camera, rear is standard.

thanks

Alan

There are many, many threads on when to buy a C7 and on the A8 - just look through the first couple of pages of this sub-forum.

If you want a new C7 and are willing to perhaps be flexible on the option package, go for it now. Inventory of new C7s is dropping.

The ‘15-18 C7s have experienced some issues with the A8 and ‘19s built through around the end of January 2019 also were included.

honestly, I’d either buy one now or wait 2.5 years....I personally would never buy a first year of a new model
