2015 Corvette Z06 Priced At $78,995
I'll be getting one of those in 2016/2017. I'll follow my regular gently used cash purchase from private seller model.

I just built one last night and it priced out at over 96k. LOL
If you get the Z07 package, which of course you have to have, then you need to buy the lower splitter package and that adds up as well. Then, add on the little options here and there and before you know it,................ That's on the 1ZL platform too. |

ugh i love this car more and moer every time i see it. its still waaaaaay out of my price range. but that is a steal of a car.
but all this "watch out ferrari, lamborghini blah blah blah" talk, stop it lol. a guy (or girl) thats in the market for a 458 ferrari doesnt care that the Z is priced at half its cost. they're not paying for the performance, they're paying for a name. |

Well, there are exceptions to every rule.
The 1969 Zl-1 Camaros and Corvettes for example. '69 Camaro could be made lighter than a '69 'vette. The '69 Camaro ZL-1 was a better drag car than a '69 Corvette ZL-1.

We just had a convo at the shop about the new Z06 I think its insanely priced and you know there will be a crazy mark up at the dealerships as well.

Somealers put ADM'S on everything. I was on a business trip to Medford in southern Oregon and had time to kill so I stopped by Airport Chevrolet.
10K markup on C7's, 5,000 on all their new Camaros and even 2000 on Sparks. the Camaro has been out for 5 years now and they still think that they should charge a 5000 dollar mark up for rarity? Give me a break |

I hear you. But, it's up to dumbasses not to pay BS mark ups. This car will go unchanged until 2021ish. So what's the hurry?

...like this '71 LS6 SS/CA (weight-dependant, same Class as Camaro ZL1s would have run with a TH-400), a regular winner for Ollie Stephan, in the '70s. Claude Uhrig also ran such an LS6-Vette combo successfully as well. The only NHRA National recognition ZL1 Camaros ever got in SS was from da Grump hisself. As Pro Stocks, the production ZL1 blocks weren't strong enough, when over-bored and de-stroked. And only TWO Can Am 430-based Pro Stocks existed: da Grump, and Canadian Lance Hill. Grumpy won the 1st 2 events in '70, and then Sox & Martin took over...till Grumpy created the SBC-powered Vega in '72. One of the two original '69 ZL1 Vettes actually saw local action on the drag strip. The other, of course, led a checkered early life, with its engine ending up in a speed boat... ZL1s, although a generally well-kept secret till 2011, were ALWAYS very '$pensive to buy correct GM parts for, as required in NHRA Class racing... |

My dealer will not mark up a car over sticker, he thinks it is bad business. I called him when the price list came out and told him I want one. I am first on the list when they get an allocation. This car seems amazing for that price.
