how long do they sit on lots?

Until they are told to roll over!

About when were 2013's stopped being produced? In other words as a bargaining tool if negotiating on a 2013 what is reasonable to assume as to how long they have been there? Minimum of 6 months, eight, ten? Dealer in Houston has 3 2SS Dusk editions (2 Manual) that I am interested in.

I am not sure for certain, but I believe that they were still delivering 2013 cars into August.

Mine was built in Oct 2013 I purchased it on 07 Nov 2013. I really wanted a 1LE so my order form got shredded.. after picking one up at a local dealership.

I enjoy driving it!!!

As far as mileage, yeah its only got 10 or 30 or so miles, but on certain things, 2 years is 2 years, doesnt matter if it was driving or not.

Rain, sun, snow, bird shit, etc for two years on the pain, possible rust, anything rubber, fluids, etc, etc. Some things arent made to sit that long, and even if it hasnt been driven, I still think a year or two on the lot makes the car less valuable in my mind.

Yeah, If they gave me 4k under invoice, I would think about it. But just 4k under sticker isnt enough

The 2011, I just traded, was built in June 2011 & I bought it July 2011. The 2014 I just got wash't there long. It only had .02 miles when I took it for it's first spin. Exhaust smoke like crazy at first, just had to burn undercoating off….Thought I had burned the car to the ground on a test ride!

Same with the Blue Ray ZL1 'vert by me. It's still there . Been there since February .
