I find the price of ownership surprising! Besides the costs mentioned, there’s also depreciation. Expect a 10-15% drop the first year alone.
That’s a good point. On the brighter side, C7 Z06s hold value better than many other sports cars over time.

True! I think it’s because of its performance and fan base. Plus, they look fantastic!
Is anyone else here factoring in modifications? Those can escalate costs too. I invested in exhaust upgrades, and it was worth every penny!
Yeah, and not to forget about possible warranty costs if you’re upgrading non-OEM parts. It’s crucial to weigh all these factors first.
I love the Z06 but sometimes wonder if the overall costs are justifiable. It’s such a blast to drive, though! Worth it or not? 
For me, the joy of driving makes it worth it! Just make sure you’re financially prepared for the extra costs.
The current average price for a Corvette C7 Z06 is around $80,000, but it can range from $66,000 to over $100,000 based on condition and mileage. Definitely a competitive price considering its performance capabilities!
That’s true! If you compare it with other sports cars like the Porsche 911 or the Ford GT, the Z06 often offers more power for the price, which makes it a great value!
I’ve seen some used C7 Z06s for as low as $65,000. Just remember to consider the features like the performance package and, of course, the mileage. A well-maintained model can hold its value better.
Absolutely! The resale value is critical. I’ve found that the Z06 tends to depreciate slower than many competitors, especially if you choose a vibrant color!
Resale value is indeed important! But let’s not overlook the driving experience. For the performance you get with the Z06, I think it beats many cars priced similarly. It’s all about the thrill of driving!
While that’s subjective, I agree it’s exhilarating! But I’d argue that the newer models of competitors might offer more advanced tech features.
Don’t forget the warranty! Corvettes come with a great warranty that adds to their appeal. If something goes wrong, you’re covered, which is a big plus compared to other luxury sports cars.
Good point! Warranty helps ease ownership worries. Plus, many owners rave about their experience with Corvette support. It’s nice to know you’re backed by the manufacturer.

Prices can vary wildly based on location and dealer markups. I’ve noticed a few dealers near me listing C7 Z06s for over $90,000! Buyer beware, I guess.

That’s a little insane! Makes you wonder if some dealers are just trying to capitalize on high demand.
I’m curious, how do insurance rates compare? With the Z06 being a sports car, I imagine they could be high. Anyone have insight on that?
In general, insurance for the Z06 is manageable if you’ve got a clean driving record. It’s usually cheaper than some other high-performance vehicles.
