Plenty, lol. Love to see those numbers on cars that haven't even been sold yet. Currently the number is zero.

I can see that with people who want a manual with fully loaded options(ZL1) that were cross shopping with the base C8.

Just another data point in Vette pricing way back when the ZR1 was coming out, I bumped into a lady in the parking lot. She paid $15k over MSRP for 75K roughly. She said that this was an investment and they planned to make money on it. Well we all know you don't drive your investment to McDs.. but that is an aside.
The current price of a excellent ZR1 is $28K. If she bought a condo in Austin it would be worth north of 3/4 million. Plus all the money 30 years worth of rental. So do I think that waiting on a Vette will price me out? Nope, I think that is something you tell your GF to justify something. I'm fine with people wanting something and saying it is worth the price, I'm just a little sceptical on a normal everyday production item being unaffordable in a future of over production and declining mfg cost.

I think you mean ZR-1, the 4th gen. And agree - there are few modern cars that hold value over time or appreciate. Ford GT has - not many Corvette's though - they simply make too many.

Yes a manual transmission would make all the difference
