Looking to purchase a '16-'17 C7. Best prices seen new?
hey everybody. looking to purchase a 16-17 c7 in the very near future
looking for a red one, red seats would be a plus, but black is fine. been doing alot of researching and seeing them as low as 45-46k brand new! how cheap have you guys seen or gotten yours brand new? any major issues known with the corvettes? how are they relaible wise, will i get 100k or more miles out of it without having to put another 50 grand into it? are they expensive to matience or maitain? moneys not an issue but at the same time dont need a moneyp it. i plan on keeping this car forever like i am doing with my current car. this will be my daily car, unless the weather is crap or raining, then i will be using my g35 coupe. also can somebody link me to a post or forum that disscuses bolt ons? thanks all! |

I picked up a 16 recently, great deals at yr end. I went with a 1LT (heated seats are useless to me on my summer only car), but went for the Z51 option plus mag ride/PTM, M7. I also plan on hanging on to it for years to come and heard many kick themselves for not at least checking off the z51 option(google or YouTube, you'll see all the features the z51 offers). I also highly recommend mag ride the tour/sport/track modes are incredible, the weather and eco modes..meh. I spend lots of time reviewing on the vette forums and really haven't heard any cost complaints on the C7. Good luck with your decision

yeah the z51 seems nice but thats also another what 4-6 grand more haha. im trying to stay under 50k out the door w/ every single type of fee paid for including taxes and what not. any higher and id probably just go find a used 2012 GTR black edition for 60 grand. but dont want to spend that much.

as far as reliability goes.....I put 43000 miles on my '15' in a year and 8 months.....the ONLY thing I ever needed to do was have to oil/filter changed. I had a new set of tires put on at 41000. |
