Hi,

I believe 80% chance base starts at $64,999 or so and rises to increase like C7 did in first several months to become $66k-67k . I will be shocked if base is above $70k at release!!!!

The >$80K crowd is still hovering around 22%

Possibly.

I know I tried several dealers in DFW (including Classic which I think is like number 3 or 4 in terms of Vette sells), they did not and could not get an allocation (talked to them several times from late March through May). Seems to me that Chevy specifically limited the number built.

<$60K... looks like 22% were wrong..

PCMII, ANY COMMENTS?

I was part of the sub $60k crowd from day 1...this thing is going to sell a lot...amazing!

Better order now... before you can blink GM will take a price increase mid-cycle or the '21 will get bumped.

Agree....GM did the same thing in 2015 with the C7. However, discounts will kick in year 2 so I believe individuals will get the car for less despite the price bump if they wait for a few months after initial introduction.

That's not how it went with the C7... the folks who got them early enjoyed them 2 years and could sell for $0 loss.

Dr. ice

Are you speaking from personal experience. The ones who wanted a Z51 in 2014 had to pay $10K over in most locations and they took a bath. I purchased my 2015 with GMS pricing and got a $10K discount. Shortly after introduction of GMS pricing GM rebates exceeded GMS. You are totally off base. I lived those years and participated in the frenzy.

RapidC84B

No.. I was racing C5s at the time, but followed closely. As with the C8, you could get one MSRP from the big dealers on the east coast no issue... those who got a Z51 for $52K or whatever were sitting pretty when the Z51 became a $56K car.

Dr. ice

The small bump in price occurred at the same time GMS was introduced. Financially, it is best to wait and purchase after the initial feeding frenzy. I am also debating about buying a new 992 Porsche and it’s the same story. Dealers and rebates get more aggressive after year 1. By then the must have first at a premium guys have purchased.

Made a couple hundred dollars off a bet with a friend who swore up and down base would be over $70k. . .

I have a 2016 2LT Z51 with a $75000+ sticker. I could have easily added another $10K to the MSRP. If folks believe the same options in a C8 Z51 will cost under $70k they're dreaming . IMO, probably over $80k and then some... Thank God I got over 20% off..

Care to revise your statement?

Oneslackr

He already owned up to being wrong last night about the starting price & about saying that the C8 wouldn't have a 6.2 liter engine.

Sweet! At least you found someone willing to put their $ on the line.
