There are already tons of orders for these cars, by people who didn't have to get a loan...........GM will have ZERO trouble unloading the first 1-3 years worth of these without ever having one "sit" at a dealership.
Just my $.02

Not saying your wrong or anything I know, why not make more money if there is no inventory sitting there on the lots.
Sorry just ranting, lol, not arguing.

Worst case, you waste less time than I have spent on this post, best case, you find a smokin deal on a hot car.
I just meant that it is going to be far easier to find deals on ANY other GM vehicle then it would be on a new Z06....heck, look at the GM Employee Pricing Plan that they have opened to the public.........all cars/trucks/SUVs qualify EXCEPT the Vette (plain or Z06) and "medium duty" trucks.......they don't HAVE to deal on them so they are not.
If you CAN find a place that will cut a deal, I would say run with it and send them as much business as they can handle. Hell, if I could find a new Z06 for $66k or LESS, I would sell off my car, my dog, my nephew and anyone else's kids I could to be able to get one of those puppies.
And Todd, I could not agree more with you about everything you said, but this is not a business where folks use their heads it would seem. The days of high volume, lower cost muscle cars are long gone from GM.

You're absolutely right on this one. Only one problem though. Even though they're a HUGE dealer, their Corvette Allocation is backlogged with buyers for something like the next 2 model years. The reason? They treat Vettes just like Cobalts.
Give it time and buying a Z06 for sticker or less will be cake from *most* dealers.
