dammit........might have to get one of these after they've been out a couple years.

1. dont want an early failed tranny like the 2014 C7 had to be revised instantly for 2015.

2. let someone else take that first price hit. i'll grab it after that first 10k depreciation hits as it leaves the lot.
Rusty and ZCanadian like this.

This. I pretty much have always refused to buy a vehicle which has a powertrain less than 3 calendar years old, and then I hit the forums and see how they do or if they have common issues. The only time I put that standsrd on hold, I regretted it, but I did love the vehicle.

sometimes there's a few that work out the gate......but that's like finding a unicorn lol

all vehicles have unseen issues that creep up as they get into the wild and miles are logged.

i'd wait to see how it preforms, how it looks uncovered, and how many issues they have in the first year.

also, i'm curious to see they other models once they are released.

Z51 is lowest i'd buy, Z06 is probably gonna be a monster, ZR1 iwill be TT with a flat plane crank V8, then the Zora will have the ZR1 engine plus electric motors for bonus power.
