Traded the 1LE for a C7

I traded my 1LE to MacMulkin Chevrolet in Nashua, NH on a new C7. It was a great car, sorry to see it go. Wish I could have kept it and purchase the C7, but that was not possible.

Has anyone else sold/traded their 1LE for a Corvette?

And so soon. Were you just undecided between the two when you purchased the 1LE? Just curious.

Congrads bro and welcome to the Vette world! Totally different animal huh? I'm. Keeping the Z06 probably 2 more years and will jump into a C7Z (used) when the prices come down.

Shoot some pics of her

Congrats! Although the 1LE is a badazz ride, the new Stingray overall is an excellent upgrade. I still have my 2012 Camaro SS since it's my daily driver but I'd swap it for a C7 in a heartbeat if I can just have only one... so IMO good move in your part.

Cant blame you for upgrading to a C7...those new Vettes are beautiful!

Congrats! How was the trade-in value of your 1LE? I'm planning to trade mine for a c7 as well.

Could not believe how much the 1LE depreciated, took the car to 6 different dealers and the highest trade in was 35k with the lowest being 32k and the sticker on the car was 46.5k.

I know as I'm going through the same ordeal - lol. I think 1LE depreciated faster than a regular SS as the 1LE package probably doesn't mean anything to the dealers or most buyers.

Anyways, does the c7 feel significantly faster than the 1LE? Did you get the z51 or the regular c7? I had a '10 SS before the 1LE, so it was not a good upgrade for me. I need to get this right this time Thanks for sharing your experience.

Why is it that it is always Camaro's who
want to race my Grand Sport. Probably
be the same thing in my new C7.
Could be they are jealous of a real
sports car. A real sports car has no
back seat.
