The Z06 saga continues:

Gary,
I noticed today in the S.D. newspaper an add for '08 ZO6's at Bob Stall's Chevrolet. They have three in stock and the price is $65,665. Their number is 800-719-0904.

Thanks, Jeff, I talked to them weekend before last, They want about $73K out the door with tax & license, only red & black, & maybe a yellow one left, but thanks for the info.

Sytech and i went over to Corvette mikes and looked at their 09 ZR1 (black on black).. i think you should get that .. it was going for small change 150K

Are you sure??
Because last weekend on CF they were advertising it at $159K. And GM is having trouble with the carbon fiber roof lay-up as it is turning white on them.
At that kind on money, I would be all over a Ford GT, which may not be quite as quick or fast ala factory, but will be worth more money down the road. You may never see the ZR1 at list ($105K) but you will see them drop down in value from the $55K mark-up I think.
Going to be very pricey working on that car, too. Brake parts are not going to be free. Thread going on over on corvette forum that a brake job with new rotors will be about $8K for parts alone.

Gary,

I picked this up last week. My dealer had several 08's, but I still got a deal on this one. The Z06 is definitely a cool car. Good luck with your search.

Beautiful car, Cyber Grey, '09 Z06. About $72K out the door, (not including tax if any & license)?

Gary - I paid very close to that. There were several silver 08's available around here but those went quick at the employee pricing. I had been debating for some time about a purchase and figured that the deals would not be better than they are now. I agree that the deals on the 08's were the lowest that we are going to see. A lot of the 08's had been on the lots for a while.

Shi* the way you drive you shouldn't have to worry about a brake job you old man LOL :wink: .. yep 150 was the price.. that thing is AMAZING in person, i was thinking i wasn't going to like it but once i saw it i changed my mind :biggrin: .. that ZR1 would walk all over a Ford GT..

Lou:
I saw that ad this morning, but did you see the 68 mile notation on the ad. I have never seen a dealer place the mileage on the ad, as most new vettes roll off of the delivery truck with 4 to 6 miles on them. My best guess would be that, (& I mean this as no slur to Reliable Chevrolet) this was their test mule for prospective new Z06 owners who wanted to test drive a new Z06 prior to purchase, which would explain the 68 miles. The fact that they are offering to deliver it (sight unseen, if necessary, I would assume) for that price also would concern me. Slightly unsual, at best.
I am thinking that locally, Tim Boone at Boardwalk Chevrolet in Redwood City might be the best bet. Fwiw, GM employee pricing discount goes away 09-30-2008, as far as I know and that could change things somewhat.
Every time I actually think about writing a check for $75K my knees get very weak & it smells funny around me.

 

[Gary Wells]

Bottom line, though, regarding the Reliable Chevrolet '08 Z06 is that it is probalby worth at least a phone call.

this kids weak in the knees and smells something fishy

Save your money and buy an LS7 and just slap one of these on :biggrin:

 

[EL Turbo Dude]

oh yeah!!!!!!

 

[Gary Wells]

Nothing wrong with that, Frank, but I just can't do yellow. It is also $75K asking. If that was Andy's personal toy from last year, the silver one at $65K, I would be all over it in a heartbeat. It went to Texas about a year ago. I have something in the works now on an '08 & no mods, previously owned, extremely low mileage.
