I think this one is it boys.... this and hopefully a next gen turbo Z. I don't think I need 650hp. They just seem like unreliable cars IMHO. I have more faith in this LT1. The vette is already a beast at 460hp. N/A parts and a tune would get it up to 540hp. That's plenty of TORQUEY naturally aspirated power to have some serious fun!!!

Unless Nissan can wow with the next gen Z, I think this is my ideal step up from the 370.

Less expensive than the Z06, with what should be a more reliable engine making more balanced levels of power.
Now I just hope that GM gives a hefty discount for having the base engine instead of the SC'd V8.

I wouldn't expect more than $8,000 to $10,000 as a discount. If we're lucky? $13,500. But I doubt it. Especially if purchasing the on board camera which I'll opt out of the Big Brother option. Lol

Top Corvette Dealer makes educated pricing prediction.

Base Grand Sport $68,995 that sounds reasonable.
But I'm sure the fully tricked out one will hit $83,000

Chevrolet Cars, Trucks, SUVs, Crossovers and Vans

Chevy is claiming a 0-60 in 3.6 seconds on the GS. Pretty impressive when you consider weight to hp by comparison of other cars. Identical to the 550hp Jaguar F-Type R. Which starts at $105,000 and people are guesstimating $68,900 for a corvette. I'm impressed.

So amazing.... a $66,500 grand sport is priced perfectly within the segment it's playing in. Truly a performance bargain. And the body treatments make this car beautiful. I can't get around the blandness of the base corvettes profile. These small treatments really wake this car up. When you add the Z06 suspension. This car becomes the best bang for buck under $70,000

I wonder if it would apply to a GS pre-order???

Of course this thing gets announced a month after I buy mine. Well I decided to buy used anyways, so I guess it's not too bad. The aero parts are the same as those for the Z06, which I planned on adding to mine anyway. The wider wheels would have been nice, but not absolutely needed over the Z51 wheels.

This is the model to get over the Z06 if you plan on tracking it a lot. All the performance upgrades without the potential overheating issues caused by the SC. The availability of the Z07 pkg is what really makes the GS such a great deal. The carbon ceramic brakes alone are worth more than the package cost itself. Got a ride in a C7 Z06 w/ Z07 pkg at ZDayZ last year and those brakes are mind blowingly good.

If you want to go the cheaper route, you can buy a used Z51 and just add the aero parts afterwards and the wheels if you want them. Gives you more money to buy mods......like this exhaust I bought :)

I would never buy a Vette new. Ever.

You'll be able to snag one of these grand sport Vettes for $50k in 2-3 years. I guarantee it. That's also the depreciation threshold where it's an incredible sports car value and a great time to jump on one.

They're awesome sports cars, but they're still a GM product.
