The only new 19 Z06 I see locally is this new one 13k off and the one 17 below that for 68k. It was 70k new. 3LT, 5k miles.
With the C8's coming out the prices should drop a lot on the C7's.
Before I sold my C6 I had planned a trip to the museum but never made it.
It’s a lil dark but it is pretty. 
I’ve always loved the gt500, but felt like it was stupid to pay that much for a “not so practical car”, so ended up just getting a 2013 gt and is fun too, but no Gt500 power. My coworker bought a 2013 GT500 and paid $70k plus thinking it would hold its value or even go up, but then ford announced they were making another production run for 2014 and that was the end of his plans. he lost his behind off on that car when he sold it. He never really enjoyed the car either, since he only put about 6k miles on it trying to keep the miles low so it would hold its value.
I’ve never bought a car or bike specifically to make money on the other end. My CBXs grew in value far more than anticipated but I had no thought of selling them when I bought them. I don’t pay too much to begin with. Sadly and surprisingly my Caddy isn’t worth crap according to KBB or NADA but at 105,000 miles it’s just getting broken in!
The six figure mileage doesn’t have as much to do with the resale prices as you’d think. I think it’s the tiny 32 valve Northstar motor vs the 16 valve Chevy V8 the later supercharged models came with. Still it’s cheaper to run than car payments.
Not short of cool, just not (as) cool. 400hp is pretty cool.

Respectfully disagree. 400hp is cool if it were a Hyundai. A vette not so much.
A redeye..or demon that's good HP.
Then again I have a turbo bike maybe I'm just a HP junkie

I still see the 14's selling for 49k. It was a fun car though. I had an automatic hellcat but did not enjoy it as much.

You know I was tempted to get a Hellcat also but passed. For some reason these 600-800hp monsters also happen to weigh a ton! I drove a GT500 and while it was a nice car the Corvette was killing it in terms of a fun factor. The seating position, the drive height, the 3300 or so lbs it weighed just made more sense. I still love hellcats but I think a manual vette is a blast to drive. I miss mine! Maybe ill get another one one day!

The Vette is a fun car to drive and handles better than the 14GT500 with a straight axle. I just did not like having the vette as an only car. The 14 GT500 was easier to get in and out of for doing a bunch of errands and such. Plus I just enjoyed it more. 662 HP was fun to keep in check. The 15 + mustangs are also lower than the 14 and earlier. The Hellcat was a big comfortable car. I did not take advantage of all the HP as much.
