Hello all! I am not new to corvettes but decided to buy either a 2010 - 2013 ZR1 (didn't mention 2009 bc I noticed and heard that they are least valuable) or a 2019! I know it's a big difference in cars, and especially prices, but that's why I am here, to learn more of what I really want. I am looking for investment reasons 80% bc I rarely drive anything anymore. LOL So, there is a 2013 white ZR1 on ebay in completed listings, anniversary car he says but it has 27k miles on it...too many for my taste I think, and he wants $100k plus! Sounds crazy to me. Also, in the 2019 cars, does anyone think that the automatic will have close the value of the stick ever in the future and what does everyone say about that and those cars? I think they are the baddest car ever produced! Not sure if this is even the best place to post this particular post but admins will steer me in the right direction I am sure. Thanks all

P.S. Going to search the clssifieds on here now!

So in my opinion If you are looking for investment potential you have to buy not only a desirable car, but find one with hard to find options. Look at the percentage of cars with a manual transmission,if less than 35 percent then it's a big deal. Unusual but nice colors are a real bonus. Wrecked,raced and modified need not apply....

 

Thanks for the responses guys. So, there is a 2011 5800mi yellow car near me but I am not a fan of yellow. I think for investment reasons it is a decent color bc the guy that likes yellow will be all over it. It is in the $85k range so it seems fair compared to what I have seen. On the other hand, I can get a 2019 automatic car in the color I want for about double that so I wonder if it is worth the much more money or not!
