C7 vs C8

2017 GS 2lt manual 11k miles vs 24 2lt 3k miles. Nice thing both at same dealership and going to look at tonight. About.a $15k difference. Both in price range but leaning toward the 17 being manual

Trust your instinct and get the manual.

Either one is a great ride! The best option would be one of each. I love my C8 but miss my C7. I would go with the C7 manual at this time. It will hold its value as the C8 market gets saturated and the prices are coming down. Best of luck with your decision!

This is just introductions, I would suggest posing relevant questions in C7 & C8 sections respectively for more in depth discussions and searches for information. Best you can do is educate yourself, test drive and ultimately make your own decision. Welcome
