Default FYI C8 price

Picked up wiper blades at my local Chevy dealer today and spoke with the Corvette specialist salesman about pricing on C8. Was told base price $90k. Possible the C7 will continue to be made so as not to lose the front engine buyers.

Sounds like that sales person has been reading CF. He/she has no basis for making either of those statements. Pricing information has not been shared with dealers, but a few have been given some general hints.

No credible source, and there are some here, has suggested that the C7 will continue other than potentially some short production overlap.

I feel as though there is a new one of these every week.

I was talking to my friend at a larger dealer network this morning and they know as much as we do which is nothing. That being said he wasn't ordering any more C7s now, mainly because people don't buy them this time of year because of the road conditions. There was a lingenfelter in the showroom, and a coupe and convertible under the overhang and one more Z06 on the lot. Actually most of the lot was empty which was suprising.

If I had $1 for every "my corvette specialist told me" rumor
How is extending the building of the C7 retaining FE buyers
