I'd go for that if I was you. How much was he willing to let you do that? I would caveat that with nobody sits or drives it while its on display.

Decided not to go with the new Nismo. Today I placed an order for a 2015 Z51 Vette, pretty decked out with options and it came to 69,660 + tax. To me, the more I thought of it paying 50K for this Nismo just wasn't worth it and chipping in a little extra ( ok 20K) I get my dream car.

Nice. I would of got a base Z and slapped a TT on it. Put a few grand in the suspension, regeared, new clutch. Had a beast car.

Nice car! But also, the Nismo isn't a 50k car. Fully loaded sticker price is 47k, so you should be expecting ~45k at most. The Vette looks awesome, but is in a different price range (20k is a lot lol)

Good choice! With bolt ons and a tune guys are hitting low 11's.

I went to the Nissan site to build a Nismo and they are not showing the new leather interior just the old cloth, with tax it will be a 50K car at least early in early sales before relaxing IMO.

Be sure you can fit in the C7, I'm 6'4" and can't fit in it at all. I tried my best to squeeze in there to no avail.

I have to ask if you are dropping that kind of cash, why not go for GTR? Or is gtr just not your cup of tea?

Only reason I ask this is because when I see a corvette (even the new one) on the street. It is nice but I don't really care to have a second look. However when I see a GTR it is way more fascinating. I totally understand we all have our own opinions and I totally respect that. Just curious that is all.

Love the GTR, but that is way out of my price range. Now you are talking $110,000 or more. I'll stick with my 70k Vette, when it gets here:happydance::happydance:

The new Vette is gorgeous. Nice choice.
I grew up with a 63 Vette black with red interior. Vettes alway have a special place in my heart. My step dad said I could drive to my senior prom.... I already decided to skip prom and just drive all night but he sold it like 2 weeks before to a MLB player... lol

I also approve of your choice of the C7 Vette. I wouldn't have to think twice if I could afford one. GM hit it out of the park with this one.

But Slik did get a beast of a car and it comes with a full warranty!

Congrats Slik, enjoy that Vette :tup:

Very true!

Not trying to be a downer but your not that slick nick if you can't go to a dealership and negotiate a deal. Your building cars on the websites is a waist of time. Your new 70k vette just lost 20k the moment it left the dealership. Nothing wrong with general motors. Its just the price some pay for owning them.

for this month only there is a 10K dealer rebate on left over 2014 GTRs. members of my owners club are getting them nationwide for around 17-18K off which puts a brand new one at around 82K...thats a steal
