With what dealers? There are a couple dealers on corvette forums that are known to be msrp only dealers. Their lists are mile long by now.

It'll be at 100 or less.

I think it will be less than $90k msrp.

It should be following the typical GM formula they used for each generation. Even if you take into account inflation, should be around 90-92.

Bargain of a lifetime.

1 in Jersey, 1 in Florida and 1 in Kansas. 🤣. I'm not expecting MSRP. I understand dealers saying MSRP but I think when it comes time to actually sell them, shit may change. We will see in 2025 when they come out. Lol🤣😉

MM and Ciocca (formerly Kerbeck) built their reputation with selling the most Vettes at MSRP - that's why people lined up to both of them into the thousands. The Z06 is an attainable car which GM will pump out as many as they can as they have said multiple times with the expected price delta similar to prior gen. If your dealership charges ADM, either pay up or ignore them and just wait. This car isn't a Porsche lol.

At least macmulkin put in writing "to be sold at MSRP". I wonder if ciocca started doing that. I stopped checking/caring so i don't know if they changed their tune.

Even if it's 10k over will still be a bargain of a lifetime.

670hp and a screaming V8 that sounds better than a ferrari for under 100k? Everyone is going to do whatever it takes to get this car.

Most desired car of all time IMHO. At least when talking about a "regular" mass produced car.

Lol.

When making the comparison I'm talking 6 figure aftermarket builds. Such as UGR who will easily make a Huracon do 2k hp.

But like you said big power displacements are hard to replace.

The MC20 with 640hp V6 has really impressive potential in its design for its small platform.

It's in writing with Ciocca too.

The dude actually admitted that to me. I know GM sent a warning to all dealerships basically threatening dealers who will mark the car up that their allocations would be seized. So maybe they are selling at MSRP.

It doesn't matter as i put my deposit with macmulkin in fall of 2019. So way ahead of everyone else.

It's just a shame because i got my C7Z from kerbeck and even thought their sales team was a bit shitty, they gave me an awesome deal on the car. So i figured it's close to my house vs macmulkin, i could've gone there. But the rumors of 20+k markups early on, forced me to put my deposit with macmulkin.

Btw the C8Z MSRP will not be 120k lol.

It'll be at 100 or less.

I meant my MSRP after I add my options. I am not buying a stripper.

GM has said they will be following their formula on the price so that means it'll be about $25k more than the base C8. Options is where they make their money

The crazy part of these z06's going on their "tour" is a lot of these cold start ups are with the exhaust in "touring" which means if left in sport, it is MUCH louder.

Which is insane lol. It's crazy to think this was allowable in this day in age where sound is almost bad. And yet GM managed to get this car approved with how loud it is. Cold start up, idle, and acceleration.

I fucking can't wait to get mine!!!!!!

Unless I put it on "stealth", my exhaust in the 1LE is always fully open on start, so it usually "explodes" to life every time. It's kind of fun to do, but I expect the exhaust here is probably similar? There is a fuse I can pull that basically just leaves it open all the time, as in Track mode it still closes two of the valves below like 1500rpm or something. That created fits for the dealer when I was getting my rear-diff upgraded for autoX programming, it's a non-light code and they couldn't figure out where it was coming from.

[strohw]

The C8 has a My Mode and a V Mode just like the Blackwings do. Both of these modes allow you to adjust the exhaust volume. V mode can be pressed before the car starts up like the M buttons and the car will automatically startup in My Mode if you shut the car down in that mode.

So while I'm not saying the exhaust can't get louder, there is a possibility that it is already in its loudest setting for that video.

It's been proven that even if our exhausts are in "track", they are not fully open. The only way to have the exhaust fully open is to get rid of the NPP exhaust.

Whenever i'm done driving the C7Z, i put the exhaust to stealth because usually i'll forget to the next time i drive the car. And lately i been driving the car pretty early weekend mornings so i can enjoy the roads with no traffic and even with the exhaust in stealth, that first "spit" of the exhaust is still VERY loud. Then again i do have my secondary cats removed.

The car absolutely screams in track though. Especially with the auto rev matching. The downshifts are brutal. Love doing that in tunnels or when i'm approaching an overpass lol.

[heavyD^2]

Is it me or does this car look kind of homely with the all out aero package? Looks like something out of a Transformers movie. I kind of feel the simpler look of the regular C8 looks much better.

Do bubbles come our the tailpipes too? Or just KY? Genuinely interested.

Me too. I like the C8 just plain, no doo-dads.

There's some Z06 exhaust engineering info and data in this video linked below as well as some C8 e-Ray variant info.

You are getting terrible info about Cioccia Corvette.

They opened Z06 list for everyone at the same time. They capped the list at 4,000 reservations I believe.

I’m on the list as well.

They have promised to honor MSRP and so far they have been very transparent and responsive in my interactions with them.

You can also go on their site to view your spot in line as ppl have dropped off.

So Ron was bullshitting me when I inquired? Or was I dreaming?

I dealt with them before when they were kerbeck. They had shitty service and I only went there because I got a good deal on my c7z.

But once they transitioned into ciocca it seems that they got worse. Like their head became huge because they’re “the number 1 corvette dealer in the country”.

Not sure who Ron is but go on Corvette Forums and this dealer has stellar reputation with many positive reviews from real customers.
