The C6 ZR1 is an excellent
The C6 ZR1 is an excellent example of what I think will happen to the prices of the C7 ZR1, and what has already happened to the C7 Z06 prices. In 2009 the C6 ZR1 cost $105K, and it was an amazing high performance car. But a quick look at current prices shows that I can get a low mileage one now for between $50K and $55K, which is about half the price when new. And for me the reason was the release of the C7 Z06, which were themselves $80K-$100K when new, and now (because of the C8 Corvette) they can also be found for $50K-$55K used if you shop around. So even though you are definitely going to have some Corvette purists and fans than prefer the C7 ZR1 to the C8 Corvette, the better that the C8 Corvette turns out to be (both in performance and value) the harder the hit will be on used Corvette prices, except of course for the earlier classic 50s-60s Corvettes.
