Not the fault of gm. They priced this car according to demand of the stingray and inflation among other things.

It’s not their fault peoples salaries didn’t go up with inflation. There are many people who are fortunate to still have jobs since the pandemic started. I know some people who were making 100+k to making 45k a year now. It’s fucking sad.

How is it their fault?

What drove used stingray prices up? Demand, lack of proper production numbers, insane waiting times, inflation.

Why would they price the z06 at 90k in today's market when 2020 stingrays are still fetching for 85-95 for 1LT models. Used 3LT models are still going for 110k.

Are people stupid for buying them? Sure. But that's NOT the fault of GM.

If they can't produce enough of a product, and the demand is so high, the price goes higher. Supply and demand. People want the car. People can't wait. Some do some can't. I can get my stingray today if i want. But then i'll be buying a used one with 10k miles for 25k over that MSRP when new. Instead my build is about 80k, for a '23 model and i can get in spring. Because i can wait.

The z06 is priced according to economic times, inflation, interest and demand.

It's 106k MSRP, not 160k.

People really have to stop bitching. If you want the car, pay up and stop whining.

As i've said before, anytime someone on this forum comments something that isn't in line with the same narrative as everyone else on here.. its "trolling" I love it.


So you're saying you're m4 is rare in comparison to the vette?

If you live in Idaho, i'm sure it is. Other than that, dime a dozen. Period. Get out of your feelings.

I see more M4's than M3's by me.

I see a C8 like once every couple of months. And if i'm not at work, i'm driving around aimlessly. I love to drive. I rarely see C8 stingrays. The z06 will be a fucking unicorn.

I'm actually a bit nervous on getting a 1st year because i know people will be following me home or wanting to do something at gas stations etc.

Everyone wants this supercar.

Come on, you are just trolling. Idiots drove the whole used car market, even new cars as well actually, up by paying stupid prices for everything. You are cherry picking. Good day

I'm trolling because you don't agree with what i'm saying. Got it.

There are gigantic bitching threads on the corvette forum talking about the same thing. Oddly enough, people have moved on on the subject of price and now understand why GM did it.

You either want the car or you don't. If you're getting it, means you're past the price concern. I won't even call it an issue. It's far from it.

The price is 106k, not 160k base price. Good day.

It is funny because a lot of people here think BMW's are gods. And some clowns said people buy corvettes because they can't afford ferraris.

Meanwhile an M3 or an M4 is just a souped up version of a fucking economy 4cyl 200hp beast that miss onlyfans university girl is driving with her 330i or 430i LOL.

I guess BMW owners can't afford porsches then

I belong to the TURO facebook group.

Almost everyone is adding (or trying) to add a C8 stingray to their fleet because in their own words, "everyone is asking when i'm going to add a C8 corvette to the fleet so they can rent one".

Everyone loves the damn car. GM knocked it out of the fucking park with this generation.

Haters gone hate tho LOL

Except for how it looks, which is kinda important. To each their own but it still looks weird to me. The z06 fixes some of that but not all of it. I can live with it for the engine.
