Looks like I won''t be buying a C8 no more than the dealers want to give me for my 18 GS coupe red automatic with 2000 miles and I can live with that if I have to.
if you are thinking about trading in your C7 you might be shocked how little they will give you for it so you are better off selling it yourself before your order is placed and your deposit becomes non-refundable. I am adding the car to my garage so will not be trading in a car but looked at buying a 2019 C7 7sp GS 2LT with PDR brand new at 58K and driving that until my car comes in around June or July. My local dealers said they could not determine a value today but said it would be at a huge loss. Even now new cars are 21% off at MacMulkin Chevrolet and my guess even deeper discounts as the C8 starts hitting the streets.
I sold my 2015 C7 3LT Z51 A8 Coupe last month. It took me 6 weeks to sell it starting at $48900 and sold it for $42,000. I watched the book value drop every week. The MSRP was $77,215. There is one happy fella down in Long Island with what looks like a brand new C7 with only 19K miles on it. My 2020 C8 3LT Z51 in ZBM is at 2000 and I should be getting the TPW soon This was my 7th new Corvette
Jan 2020: Now at event code 3000 with a TPW of 3/23/2020.
My FIRST new car. An SS 396 /350 hp, 4 speed, 3:73 posi, bench seats to save money, AM radio, tinted windows and little else. Immediately added a Sun Super Tach and a Hurst shifter. Mine was the liight, metallic green tha year, IIRC called fire mist green? With darker green interior. HOW I never killed myself with that car is a mystery.

About 18 months ago I sold my 2013 Mustang Boss Laguna Seca. I put everything in Amazon stock and said “self, wait a year or two and find something awesome.”
Well my investment has doubled and so I will be trading in my Amazon stock for a C8!
