Default Did I find a good deal??

Hey,
So, I'm about to close a deal soon with a deal for a used 2016 Z06 A8 Laguna Blue with 12K miles, 2LZ and Z07 for 73k USD.
Carfax is clean and had 1 owner
Did I find a good deal ? Let me know what do You think

Thanks!

IMHO No. Lot of posts on here about values. Seems high to me.

Buying a used car is always a thorny issue unless you know the previous owner and his/her driving habits, and how often and by whom the car has been serviced. Have the recall service issues been met? What was the original sticker, what tires are on it and what kind of shape are they in? Research is your friend more so than those of us on the forum. In the long run it can save you $$$. Is the engine compartment clean? Check it out for any oil, grease, etc. Does it appear to have been power washed?

seems Good to me. These crazy deals are only good if the car is optioned the way you want. settling on a 80k car is not ok in my book. When I bought my car it was a must Z07,M7,3LZ,Carbon Top/splitter, white on red, comp seats. About the only thing I would have been okay with where rims other then black because I would have had them coated black. No other combo would have made me happy, so for me a few k more was not even a thought, who wants to spend 70 instead of 73 and say damn I wish I had the comp seats every time you get in it.

I never wanted the Z07 package due to the CCM brake replacement expense. If you really want that option then it actually seems like a decent deal. There are still leftover 2016's available with 3LZ pkg and M7. Those are $74K and worth a look if warranty matters or owning a car from birth is a desire.

I'd offer then 70k if that's what you're looking for.

I picked up a 16' Z07 3LZ auto ~$108k MSRP w/ 14k miles GM certified for $69k.

These things are dropping like rocks! The GM tag even is killing values.

I can tell you in Phoenix there is a dealer there with a 15 Z06 3LZ, M7 trans with 4100 miles on it. Its black and beautiful, priced at $67k and they will come down to $65k. Its real clean, it was traded in for a ZL1.

I was going to buy it but ended up with a new 17 CRY Z06 2LZ. Midway Chevy.

Nope. Re-read my post that you quoted. Cheapest 2016, 3LZ with M7 is $74K.

There are 2016 3LZ, M7 with Z07 package for $84K. As well as 1LZ's, M7's for $69K. AutoTrader is a wonderful tool.

Can't wait for the deals on the ZR1. I won't take a bath like on my Z06 again. Curious how many are in my shoes. I'll sit back and watch the incentives. Can't see a 130k Z moving too well
