IMO C7’s in manual will go up in price. All the C8’s come in auto. I understand it’s faster. But to be one with the car and in tune with the car is the feeling that auto drives will not understand.
Thanks for updating us corvette owners on the current market conditions. If you own a certain car it’s always interesting to see what it looks like because some of us might be looking to get a C8 Z06 and when is a good time to do that. Robert is a very knowledgeable salesman and knows what he’s talking about and you two together cover about anything you need to know about these beautiful cars. Merry Christmas 🎄
Thank you for the wonderful information. I didn't realize how much I really enjoy. You know, looking at that vehicle any of them. This is my first time actually watching a program. So I know in the future. I will also be coming back to check it out. But I i really would love to be able to buy the twenty twenty four all wheel drive because it all around seems more practical for everyday in all conditions.
_Great collection of Corvettes for sale. Here's the good stuff: the 2013 Callaway Corvette(less than 100 produced) is the deal of the millennium! Here's the not-so-good: 'The reason car prices are dropping because of politicians'? (Wait, what, the Dow Jones Industrial in the past month is the highest it's ever been). I think market adjustments on used cars, and not just Corvettes is something buyers love, and sellers, obviously not. During the pandemic car prices were the highest ever, then it's like 2008 when the market crashed. And yet Corvettes will always be an incredibly strong market contender, from original to resto-mod, the red bow-tie will always be a winner, especially at 'Corvette World'. One last comment, the 1992 C4 coupe is nice most certainly. I wonder though why you'd spend $2500 on the detail, all the while not replacing the slightly worn window tint...noticeable especially on the passenger side? As far as the ECM(ECU) being replaced on a 30,000-mile car, that's odd(and usually not expensive to find a remanufactured unit). Then again, I've been there as well on my former '92 Black Rose convertible. Honestly, the car won't bring more than 12k, and that's with the $7,500 in receipts you have on this black beauty. C4s are great cars and certainly don't get enough love. (The best of luck selling this well cared for '92)._
Sorry guys but this is just the beginning of the normalizing of the C8 prices and the end of C8's artificially lifting C7 prices... NEW C8's are now discounted... I'll be buying a C7 in a year or so when they're down to current C5 pricing. You need to get aggressive in dumping inventory RIGHT NOW or your floor plan will eat you alive.
@@VerttimeYou are right but he also has a point in that C7 prices will be dropping for some time still. There's so many around that they'll not be collector specials in the long run, not before many decades have passed. It's a numbers game with Corvettes - only the rare special models keep their value beyond normal depreciation.
@@googlekeepsmemisinformed447They will wake up but only when they have to. The price level we got used to pre-'20 is probably not coming back. But current prices are still too high and slowly dealers will have to adjust pricing.
Do you foresee values of C5 Z06's coming down in price? Im in the market for a 2004 Z06 within the next year. Hoping they come back into the 20's again.
I have a 2016 C7 Z-51 that is modified with an aero kit cold induction, Z06 grill, inlets, etc., Midnight Grey! It is a wonderful machine and I enjoy driver it. I had a chance to drive a Z-51, C8 not long ago. The C8 is another step up in feel and performance. A great machine!
I’ve got a manual ‘17 ZO6 3LZ and wouldn’t trade it for any C8. In my humble opinion, Corvettes ought to have the engines in front and manual transmissions.
The C8s are garbage.that LC 500 may not beat a vette in a race,but its made very well,Chevrolet is leaps and bounds behind the quality of that automobile
It's mine, I'm selling it, not Corvette World, and I'm not making a profit. I'm in it for $23k and I'm selling at $19k. But I have to, due to personal problems outside of work in my life that have arisen, and I'm not going to broadcast that part to the world. I invested into my car to keep for the long haul, but life had other plans, so have to roll with the punches and recoup what I can.

Electronically adjustable shock absorbers. Electro-magnets alters the viscosity of shock oil which allows adjustment of shock stiffness on the fly. Allows you to have a track day setup and a cruising setup at a push of a button.
Don't blame it on politics. Car prices have been so inflated, and customers have been on the bad side of this post pandemic supply shortage. Manufacturers have taken advantage of the situation, and it's over.
It's a car nothing more. They are dropping in price because the demand is not there. Why? It's the economy stupid. Nice car and all of that but with enormous blind spots and they are just not worth it.
They are mass produced and will never hold value. That being said, you can get a great sports car with reliability for a fraction of what you pay for others.
You're trying to rip our heads off and s*** down our necks with those prices 2017 2LT that's the MSRP in 2017 so 5 years and 20 something miles later you're still trying to sell it for MSRP that'll sit there for a while
It amazes me how many women own corvettes. All the cars here are automatic. Any self respecting man would choose a manual transmission for a sports car ( I have exclude the C8 of course because Chevy F’ed everyone there)
@31:55 Omg!!! 35000 miles, that’s soooo many😂😂😂😂😂 GTFO!!! some of you guys are SUCH tools lol Clearly the previous owner of that C8 enjoyed his car and that shouldn’t deter someone else from buying it… once it drops below 65k haha
I’m now 72 and hate driving in traffic i had a 62 corvette and a 67 corvette but I wouldn’t want to drive them in todays traffic but that’s for another day, if I were GM I’d bring back the c1 corvette with all of today’s modern equipment, I can’t stand the new style of let’s be a euro copy of a Ferrari or Lamborghini and those cars suck
For me the real tragedy is they've not really been able to combine good looks outside and inside since C2 generation. I'll admit pre-facelift C4 was close but after that they've not succeeded in the interior and now with C8 they finally have - but the rear portion of the car looks like it was designed by a nine-year-old. Even so it's great that the Corvette saga continues as performance offerings from most manufacturers are becoming very rare in recent years.

No, politics killed the economy, and everything is in the wake, wrecking the lives of hard-working Americans. Get it right.
