Any reason to stay away from 2014 model year?
 

Considering jumping into a 2014 Z51. Being the first year of the C7, is there any significant reason to stay away? I'd be getting a low mileage car, probably at the end of the 3/36 full warranty but well within the 5/100 power-train warranty. Thanks.

I've owned mine for 3 years and still love it as much as I did the day I drove it off the showroom floor.

It would depend on pricing imo. The 2016 saw significant enough improvements that given the option I would look for one of them before a 2014 unless there was 30k difference in price.

I've had nothing but trouble-free fun in my 2014 Z51. Great car and fun to mod!

What is not to like?

Mine has 24k on it and not one problem .
And I've owned several vettes including the Z06
It's an amazing car. No disappointments.

I'd consider a 16 if I could find one at the 20% off price that was around a month ago. I don't see any aggressively priced 16 Z51 Manuals around now.





This is great to see. Thanks.

I love my base 2lt stingray. 7mt was a bit finicky when I first got it, but now it's smoother since I have put more miles on it.

did a few recalls, service bulletins, lot of aesthetic mods, plenty of car washes /wax sessions. Love the car since the day I got it.

even I know there are newer models, it's not enough to make me go dump a bunch of money on the virtually the same car all over again.

i love my 7 speed and feel honored to drive a piece of American heritage at my age.

Most welcome. You will NOT be disappointed. Looks the same as new ones and the acceleration? Ahh so good.

Based on forum comments, 14s appear to be actually more reliable than later years.... for example, the 14 6 speed auto is doing fine as miles accumulate....the A-8, not doing so well.

My '14 at 25K has been "Toyota reliable". Couple silly recalls but that's it.

Being a radio disc jockey for almost 40 years, I love the HD Radio in the 2014. This is the only year it was offered.

Three years and 26,5000 miles later zero problems. Go for it... :)

Love my 2014, enjoy every minute in it, when I'm not in it I'm thinking about where can I go next. Since I've had it has been in the service dept at my local dealer less than 3 hrs. I love this car! Now has 16500 miles of smiles.

Remember the 14's have the old longer warranty.

24k and still Sreeams
 

Installed an e-force supercharger on mine shortly after I bought it and haven't looked back since.

Car is soooooo much fun to drive!

Only bitch I have is the 7mt. Really wish they would have stayed with a 6sp manual. Installed a mgw shifter this weekend and it's A LOT better now but that extra gate is still a PITA.

I love mine, and I'm glad I have an A6.

Another happy '14 owner here. I haven't had a single problem.

:iagree:

0 problems from my 14 non-z51 auto coupe. I invested in the GMPP, but the car is solid, and I have not had to use it. All aspect of the functionality and quality are excellent.

No problems with mine at all. But I only have 9500 miles. I need to drive it more. :thumbs:
