There aren't many ZL1's older than 2013...

Thinking there will be a price drop when the 6th gen is announced?

Depending on what the 6th gen looks like, the price of 5th gens may go UP? I haven't been overly impressed with some of the silhouettes I've seen so far.

Lol wishful thinking.

Your car value will keep going down no matter what. It's not a super rare Ferrari. It's a mass produced car that will be obsoleted by the next version. The last few that are new may get price gouged by dealerships but used ones won't go up.

I'd go used. (But that's just me). You avoid extra charges like gas guzzler taxes. I got my ZL1 a year old for over 11k less than its original sticker. But hey it's your money. Some people love having new. It's all about what you want.

Personally I don't mind the 2012 but you may want one with a screen. Also there's probably other changes I didn't keep up with.

Either way you'll love it. It's one hell of an upgrade from an SS.

I reached out to Becky with Rodgers Chevrolet.

Yep touch screen is what I crave, once you've had t it is hard to go back. I figured on new possibly too because of lower interest rate and I get gm employee discount.

Eh. My 2012 SS (new) was 2.9%. The ZL1 (used) was 1.69%.

Although they were desperate to move that car since it had been sitting there for a good few months.

I guess it's all about timing/credit. Also if you're good at bargaining and pretending you're leaving they seem to get jumpy sometimes. Lol.

I never had a screen. :( But I'm sure I wouldn't have wanted to go without if I had one.

Thanks for the clarification. I always get confused about what I'm driving. I usually know it's a Camaro, but every once in a while I think it's a "super rare Ferrari". I'm clear now.

Glad I could clear it up for you. Sometimes people forget.
