WHO SPENT THE MOST FOR THIER C7?

Richardlord · 12-20-2013, 07:56 AM

So, you went for broke an ordered a highly optioned C7 Vert Z51 3LT - What did you order and what was the MSRP? What also did you add in customizations? The spendthrift winner is?

As for me, I ordered eveything possible that Chevy offered except for auto trans, tincoat paint, and competiotn seats. I also ordered the customization Hurst Shifter w/black ball. My C7 MSRPed just over $76,000, but I doubt I shall be the winner.

You will pay both the destination charge, and the museum delivery charge, if you opt for museum delivery.

Those who ordered museum delivery and/or the custom VIN# on a highly optioned 3LT Z51 Vert with auto trans, seats upgrade, and tintcoat shall beat what I paid - My highly optioned 3LT Z51 Vert MSRP with the outdoor, indoor, and front covers was just over $76G - So, I expect that going all out on what Chevy offers shall be somewhere around $85G - Mid $70s was as high as I was willing to go - But, I shall add cold weather or all weather tires when I can find them in run flats - That shall another G or higher - Would like to put them on a separate set of rims, but then that would add up to somewhere around $4G more, and I don't know if I am willing to go to that extent - Maybe pick up rims later after folks upgrade rims and sell their stock Z51s, or pick up after a few totaled cars, but that is like the bitter sweet hope of a heart transplant where someone paid the ultimate price for one's benefit

Yeah bnall they charge for shipping and the museum. I was suprised as well but apparently the UAW doesn't care if it is delivered 1 mile or a thousand. They actually charge the full delivery fee for a 1 mile trip to the museum. I got mine at Lynn Layton

I agree with Emmdmd you got ripped off. Criswell (one of the big dealers) was charging a $5000 "up lift" for one on their lot, but only MSRP if ordered from them. Adding shipping costs, to anywhere, for a lot less than 10k and you could've saved some money, IMO.

Normagene · 12-24-2013, 02:34 PM

The bigger dealerships are already discounting $2,000 off sticker price for all non Z51's.

I'm completely shocked to hear Criswell is charging over MSRP. Wow

Karma got them "Sands Chevrolet" In Suprise, Arizona . As GM made them made them buy it back and when I was doing the paperwork last Thursday at Sands , shortly after got the call from NCM ( national corvette museum ) that I won a C7

I still have the C7 until after new year, is when I get the full refund and I will have put over 1500 miles on it prior to turn in
