Looking to buy a used 2012 zl1. Need some advice

[370zyzfr1]

Ok. Need quick advice. Brand new 14 for 45500. Ashen grey six speed manual with nav no sun roof. Would you do that or black 13 2800 miles same SPecs but no nav and has sunroof. Both in new car condition.

As was ALSO said, lots of guys like the Continental DWS for all-season (read that as winter) driving because they're a good deal and they come in good sizes. Continental just discontinued them, though, so if you find a set you'll want to jump on them quickly. Many here also drive the Michelin Pilot Super Sports, and although they're summer tires, guys say they handle okay when it's cold (read that as NO SNOW).



Well, doing the math, it seems that 48k - 42.5k = $5,500 more for a car that, assuming 0 miles, has 2800 fewer miles. You're looking at roughly $2 a mile savings.

In all seriousness, though, get a CarFax and make sure you're covered on the one you've got a deposit on. Or an AutoCheck. Or both. Make sure it's clean. If it is, that's an excellent buy.

Ya car fax clean. One owner. No accidents

Both are great deals. I like ashen grey better personally For color but I would rather save a few bucks and get the one with 2800 miles. That really is nothing for miles and plus I'm a big fan of having a sunroof, I never use my nav....
Also the 13 tail lights are way nicer looking then the 14 + cars.

Havent pulled the trigger yet. Literally sitting in dealership!

I am also look at a black on black 2014. I REALLY want to get a set of the z28 wheels to go with it. Have you seen any guys out those up for sale at all?

The black on black 14 does not have nav and does not have sunroof though. Have carbon fiber weave and is manual

Sales guys still deliberating. He's back.

I'd say black one because they look beautiful when clean , you save big, and you can get a better navigation than the one that's in the camaro's according to most ppl! And it's more work and cost to get a sunroof ! Plus the car value is higher with the sunroof and I actually like using my phone for navigation! Your phone has navigation so you will still have it , just on your phone!

It's between #2 and #3 for me. You just have to decide whether or not you prefer the navi over the black wheels. I prefer black wheels over navi.

@ those prices there is no reason to go used.

Ashen gets my vote! Can't deal with the maintenance of Black but I sure like to see it on someone else's car.

Again I choose option 1... best price, saves you money, 2800 miles is nothing, has a sunroof, has the better rims (black way over played)....and the biggest reason it has the way nicer tail lights....

Nav and sunroof would be nice but not needed. I asked dealership if they could swap out black rims for brushed chrome on be 3rd option. I could ask them to come down another 1k on 13 but just from an investment point of view I woukd think he 14 would be better.

I do like tail nights on 13 better

I COmpleltey agree with everything but from an investment point of view this deal with the 14 can be significantly better. This deal is just for stale inventory.

If I bought the car with black rims how much could I sell the set for brand new?
Want to try to buy the z28 rims regardless.

Black wheels new are selling between $2500-$3000

You might ask them to swap the black with chrome if you want the other car. The silver wheels are supposed to be optional and cost more. Black wheels are stock on the ZL1

Oh , ok! And investment point ? And I never love the all black wheels until the ZL1 and 1LE came out with them! I also like the design of the black wheels better than the Other ZL1 wheels!
