If that's true, I certainly wouldn't be buying the same exact car again.

Maybe too late and not needed, but what color car you looking for?
I recently bought a "regular" ZL1 and that dealer had 10+ ZL1's at that time. Three were 1LE's. Just looked and they have a black 1LE listed for $69. ($73 sticker w/PDR.) Based on my dealing w/them, I'm pretty sure they'd deal off $69... It's Castle Chevrolet in North Chicago. I used to live in Upstate NY, and visit regularly, it's a fairly easy drive down 90!...or fly in to O'hare and they are a few miles from there... |

I can’t imagine myself becoming scared to drive a car regardless of the circumstances involving an accident. Maybe it’s because I know exactly what caused the accident. This 1LE version of the Zl1 is a car to keep for a long time (if not forever). No way I’m letting a bump in the road scare me, I refuse to live in fear. Our time on this earth is too short for that.

Im getting the final value from Geico this week sometime. As long as I can close the deal with the dealership before the end of the month I’m sure I can get them to take 1k or more off their 71k asking price.

That's been my experience. I totaled my car by hitting a deer and they gave me more than the book value. Book value was $3200 and they gave me $4,000. Of course that was a cheap car so hopefully they'll be generous on an expensive car too.

I need to get the deal done for the new one by the end of the month so I can take advantage of a $3,000 discount. Pray for me boys !!

Oh, and good luck with the insurance and the new car, man. I made my share of mistakes behind the wheel, and thank God none of them was punished, but I do recall some dreadful moments, I guess this was all to keep me sane and from becoming a total jerk. Get that new ZL11 and enjoy it.

Thank you sir!!! I’m not in the clear yet so I’m trying really damn hard to not count my chickens before hey hatch.

My job involves a lot of driving (fast driving ), it’s easy to get desensitized to speed when you drive fast the majority of the time. Trust me, this episode has caught my attention (even though speed was not a factor in this accident). Hitting the guardrail, the loud noise of the impact and that side airbag punching me in the side of the head was a reminder of how fragile we humans are. Thank you for the encouraging words. I’ll keep you boys posted.

Here is the most recent Manheim wholesale report. Unfortunately the "1LE" option has never shown up and that makes these cars hard to value and it hurts the value.

Kelly blue book doesn’t have the 1LE listed yet. These factors actually helped my case.

I have it and haven't used it except once to see if it works. It does! The sunroof is a must for me. Maybe mine will be hard to sell too with the roof.
