This is the price I have seen for the Convertible not the coupe. I am crossing my fingers and toes that I have the pricing at $76,000 base for the coupe. This came from a very reliable source (My Chevy Dealer) and the reading I have done is that they GM is keeping price under control ie. not too crazy. We will see. I have my deposit in and am waiting as everyone else is.

Taking into consideration the number of options GM is making available and the pricing of those options, which follows the same trend I've observed over the recent years with the European automakers, I'm thinking jllein7 may not be too far off. $76K maybe a bit low by about $3K-$4K, but by the time one options out the Z06, not the Z07, it'll go over $100K depending on what your willing to live with or without as far as add-on's go... What did someone say previously? I think it was BOBSZ06 when quoting Jadge saying, the new 2015 Z06 will cost around $35K less than a comparable equipped (Optioned) C6 ZR1, which we established at $125K. That drops it down into the $90K range. Not being that optimistic, particularly considering all the new gadgets they're coming out with, I'm thinking in the upper $90K range or just over $100K... IMO....

I hope to be able to buy a 1lz with Auto trans and black wheels, That is all I want. And be at 77k. Please GM lol..

A guy with a GM sticker on his truck told me the C7Z06 will start at $79,995.

I'm sticking by that number.

that would make it so much easier of a decision

But you have to laugh at people quoting magazines as what they "have seen" as far as pricing. MT and/or CD put that number out there for the convertible a few months ago. They were far off on C7 pricing, so no reason to believe they'll be accurate with Z06 pricing.

And dealer's are a very reliable source of pricing. If the biggest guys in the country are guessing, then a dealer isn't "a very reliable source".

Even Mike@Criswell has stated his educated guess is $95k with the Z07 being $105k.

I seriously believe that even GM is not sure, yeah they probably have a pretty good ballpark, but if they are still working on final pricing, no one else knows for sure.

MSRP doesn't matter; the market will set the price. It will be MSRP at first, but Chevy will offer large discounts if sales slow down. Just look at the ZR1.

tmcternan

So Snorman, do you believe those numbers of $95K and $105K are for the bare bones minimum base price for the Z06? Really? And everything they've said up to this point has been a lie? Do you really think they think $20K in the base price isn't going to make any difference or have a major impact on the number of Z06's they're going to sell? The 3LZ trim package alone is more than likely going to be around $10K, plus the A8 and what about any special wheel options, plus don't forget the Aero packages. Guess I'll just have to give Mike a call to verify he said that....

There's no doubt about that, short term. Long term, when everything calms down and normalizes, will they still sell a good amount or will it be sitting in dealer lots for a while.

Snorman

I'll dumb it down for you...dealers are not a good source of info for pricing of the Z06 at this point. I'm not going to waste any time continuing this discussion with you, as it's already happened at least once in recent weeks.
You don't need to call Mike to ask him anything:

But I'm sure Mike would love to have his time wasted by somebody calling him to verify he said something.

100k and over for a slightly used performance car that won't come close to a slightly used C6Z06 at <50k is insanely ridiculous.

Kingspoke

I don't see the Z06 vert costing much more than the coupe since the 427 base was only $325.00 more than the Z06, & having the same drive train, wheels, tires, etc. And now with the C7, the same frame is utilized on both versions of the Z06, thus there shouldn't be a $5k gap like the Stingray versions.

Just trying to convince GM, so my Z06 vert will stay within budget (Lol).

DaveFerrari458

You can say that for a car that was derived from a VW as well!

Starting in the high $80's makes the Z06 the steal of the century compared to what else is out there!! And this new vs. used car comparison makes no sense for most!

Anyways, even putting the Uber-Car performance aside, the car can cost much more based on looks alone!

A $14k+ increase in just two model years?
I just don't see them doing that, that's just not GM's/Chevrolet's style.
If a base C7 was only $2k+ higher than a base C6 was, then a base C7 Z06 likely won't be any more than $7k or so more than a base C6 Z06 was.
I'm sticking with roughly $83k - $86k base MSRP.

Appreciate your candor Sean, but you might reconsider more current guesstimates and or quotes from others before posting anything to support your own outdated information. And as you've said, "Don't Believe What They're Saying" i.e Tadge and Harlan..... In reference to what you've posted here, that guesstimate your referring to above was made in March and allot has transpired since then. All this speculation on price is completely pointless until the actual prices are released by GM. I'm sure if you asked Mike today what his "Guesstimate" would be, it would be totally different than in March. This subject is continuously evolving and nobody knows for sure.

Don't mean to discredit or belittle you, but in reading a few of your previous posts on other threads toward others, I couldn't help but to notice a certain lack of respect on your part when you've been disagreed with. Just saying....

I just want a base 1lz with black rims and a88 auto tranny. Nav would be cool if you can get it without having to go up to 2lz package. If not I can live without nav. I hope I can get this car for around 90k. If not I don't mind waiting for a nice low mile garage queen.

Snorman

Probably no reason for me to get like that when you clearly insinuated I was lying about what Mike stated.
Save any further bleeding heart PM's to me, I think I made my point in my most recent response.

Dealers don't know anything...even the few good ones. If GM over prices this car it will have problems. Getting to the $80k-$100k range that we have puts many other car's into the equation. Go over $100k to $130k the competition get's fierce. At the end of the day it is a bargain. It will be bad ***. But is a freaking Chevy!
GM.....hurry up and get this info out... put the car on the tracks and give us the numbers and price....so we can move on to new arguments and post all of our "told you so" post's out!!
