ZR1 Value
 
What value do think the 2009-13 ZR1 will be in 5 years, 10 years, etc.., I know mileage effects this, current 10k to 15,000 miles are around $60,000, people are saying the new C8 is going to bring its value down, others say up, thoughts?

I think it'll go up in the short term 0-5 yr simply because there were less than 5000 made and in a real 6 speed. Parts are easy to find, cars are pretty easy to mod and make fast, also look and perform great even stock. I suspect it will keep up with inflation rates of around 2.5% on average. This could change if the C8 is a total flop, in which case I suspect a 5-10% increase. As for 10 years, well, hard to tell, but I doubt there will be any new manual cars for purchase at all, so I expect it to be a 75k car by then.

Well put.

It's all about supply and demand, really. If the demand is there and there's limited supply, then it will hold value. But the fact that I don't ever plan to sell mine, it's one less available. They didn't sell many of these JSB Dark Titanium cars in Texas.

Considering I just purchased a 2 owner 14k mile car for 52k$ I'm going to say values aren't going up but down

There will always be exceptions to the rule. You got a pretty good deal. :cheers:

Depreciation is the last thing that cross my mind when I bought mine, put your money elsewhere then in a Corvette those car are build for enthusiasts who’d love to drive and forget about the rest. Try real estate.

Cars depreciate.
