The drive away price on a loaded 2SS right now is as much as a very nice one or 2 year old Corvette. I think they are as high as they can go. They only can increase from here along with Corvette increases. The spread can't tighten or more people will just buy Corvettes.
I just wanna add my .02 in here. My mom is an avid corvette lover. They have just announced on her forum the unofficial prep list of the next gen corvette. . .6-cylinder. Now of course, as stated here, there is no telling how much truth is to this. Of course it will be a supercharged corvette with just as much power if not more as it does now, but again, it won't be a corvette without the 8-cylinder. As of now they are offering the 8 as an option with the 6 coming standard.
