Default How hard is it to sell a C7 these days?

I've decided to sell my 2014 C7 Z51. According to Ai, it is a buyers market. Is it a bad market in general or have people lost interest in sports cars?

To what end? Just to sell it or to sell it to get something else? If it is the former, I would say the season has started but not too late. If it is the latter, why not trade it in? You get the tax break and don't have to waste your time with tire kickers and the other annoyances.

I put in an inquiry with several of the car buying companies a couple of years ago, when, I was thinking of getting a '23 C8. I got a quote from Car Gurus offering me a couple of hundred dollars less for my C7 3LT, Z51, Roadster a couple of days ago, than I paid for it in 2020.

Considering, how much the same '23 C8, HTC, Z51 has come down to the mid $70's, I think I chose, wisely.

Wasn't that time, 2020, kind of a whacked time for car prices where MSRP wasn't even a starting point?
