I was already thinking of getting the C7 at depreciation, not actually expecting the C8 to be as awesome as it currently sounds. I mean not only is that car a better performer than the Z in every imaginable way, but it had more boot space, seems like the manual was still easier to get along with, and it got better mileage. Z51 also made the car a bit more track ready. Literally faster and more practical, it seemed. Targa top was icing.

It's not that the Z is bad, but at least to me, there was something that ticked all the boxes in qualifying as a better car in the C7.

Spending so-so years paying off a C7 now is kinda gonna get in the way of saving up for the supercar that is the C8. Only way I lean to a C7 is if the C8 turns out to be a timebomb disaster.
