- Should you buy a brand new C8 Corvette with no options or a fully loaded used C8 for less money? I discuss the pros and cons of both options.
I am 68 Y0 with prostate cancer. I bought my behind a brand new Z06 and spec’d it OUT! Took an R8C delivery. Got back to Texas and made a video. That, my friend, was the right choice for me.
Hope you kick cancers ass, and enjoy that Z06!!!
Leave it to me in your will please sir I NEED a z06
@@swiftyy7583 i plan to live to a hundred and use up that Z before
Fuck Cancer!!! Enjoy my brother!!
@@antoniohopson1 thanks Antonio! I will beat it. Hooah!
I ordered my 2024 C8 from Rick Conti last fall and received it in January. I like the fact that I was able to get exactly what I wanted vs having to compromise if buying off of the lot,whether new or used. I got the exterior color and interior colors I wanted. I ordered the HTC,2LT,GT 2 seats,front lift,mag ride,non Z51(not planning to track it). My price was $90k. It was definitely the best decision for me.
If I ever buy a new C8 it will be from Rick as well.
Dude is Legendary C8 is my favorite car also love the content
Sir, your videos are fabulously entertaining. I look forward to the next one…
We normally have only purchased new vehicles. Four weeks ago I purchased a 2017 C7 Z51 for $54,900. A little on the high end BUT per Carfax, it had only one owner and 7,900 miles. Win!
Your videos are really entertaining! I'm in VA as well and decided to go new for the cheaper interest rate and the knowledge that I am the original owner, so I know exactly how the car was treated. My 2023 HTC has been trouble free and an absolute blast to drive.
Just found your channel on the 🇺🇸4th of July🇺🇸 and I’m hooked!!! The information is PURE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I bought a used 2021 HTC used with only 5000 miles. Saved about $20k versus buying new. Then I Bought GM extended warranty for about $1.3k to cover the car’s powertrain until 2030/60k miles. I’m picky so the hardest part was finding the right car. I found the car exactly how I would have ordered it.
1st time ever seeing one of this guys videos, and I must say he’s both hilarious and entertaining to watch.
Beautifully articulated and informative video. Bravo Sir….. bravo!!!!
I’ve been trying to teach people about depreciation and how to leverage it for years.
You did a great job.
I buy new because of what you said the warranty and everything! But also like you said, two years low mileage, you still got plenty of warranty. That’s a good point!🚗👍
I was going to go new but found a used 2023 2LT HTC Z51 magna-ride with 850 miles. Paid $92k when they going for a premium of $10-$25k. The C8 was spec'ed just the way I wanted. Sticker was $96k. Porsche 911 turbo S was my other option but it was $225k and the C8 was and is the better value. I do not regret the purchase.
I like the way you word your sentences. Sounds like a journalist.
I always buy used to cut down the cost When I ordered my C8 Stingray, it was cheaper to buy new vs used. I don't regret the purchase.
Great video! Straight and true. The new corvette is a daily driver and most of all. A trip car! Yes it’s awesome and fun the entire trip! 14 Bose speakers and multiple maps of everything you want keeps you on course! Plus taking a trip in a race car that cruises on 4 cylinders is great! 23.9 mpg average on my last 2 week trip.
New subscriber...Enjoyed your vid. I too have had good luck with used vehicles. Bought a used 911 before their prices went nuts and loving it! Now thinking of a used C8 since the prices are dropping. Or maybe a C6 Z06 as they are very reasonable. We'll see.
I went with a fully loaded used 2021 3LT Z51 HTC. The comparable new vehicle would have been a 2024 1LT coupe with almost no options. It was a no brainer, I love having a HTC, front lift, all the extra speakers, GT2 seats etc. This is my 8th Corvette. I’ve only purchased 2 new. I’ve had 0 problems with any of them. And let’s be honest, the C8 HTC top going up and down is awesome to watch. My previous 7 were all coupes. This is my favorite Corvette so far, however, I’m upset they dropped the manual transmission option:-(
You have great videos! Love the editing and personality definitely gained a new subscriber
Thanks for subbing!
Great video, well presented, good sense of humor and a ton of comon sense, which isn't so comon these days 🤣. Keep up the great work.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
More videos on the C8. Like the videos and find them informative on the daily usage of the car and the funny random moments thrown in there lol
I have also had an NA Miata, an Elise, and a two door Sasquatch Bronco. My brother from another mother.
You have excellent taste in cars my friend! 😉
Good video. My first C8 i bought used for 101,000 it had 1400 miles it was 2020 i bought in 2022 and only bought used because i did not won't to wait two years for new one 111/2024 i traded on 3lz Z06 that was $$152,000 out the door and i have had this car 9 months and 1410 miles as of today I love the car BUT the 2020 C8 3lt was a better daily, got 26 mpg on hwy and had a softer rider and it also had mag ride. The Z06 is a total different car .Basically it is a track Monster. What I'm getting at? your regular C8 is a great car. You don't need Z06 for a daily
I ordered a 1LT and had ZERO regrets.....
I ordered a high optioned 2LT and have many regrets
How do you see out of it without cameras?
@@george4u1960 coupe yes, convertible is hard to look in the center mirror.
Great Review!!
Great video, keep it up unc!
Great video Sir!
Very true ! ! !
If you are at the point in your life where you are shopping for a car that is close to six figures, go all in with new. What’s a few thousand bucks at this point.
You are awesome.
Informative vid, thanks for posting!
I’m with Gerard on this one, let someone else take the beating on depreciating purchases! Bought my 18 Camero ss gently used 7k at the RIGHT price. While spending as much $$$ on built engine stealth cam fuel system maggie2650 so for $77.000~ I believe I can fly!
I bought a used 22 LT1 CPO with 13k miles. Got it home noticed all the front gaps were way off and found cut lines from painting. Sold it to a dealer 10 days later. Cost my 10k but I won’t own a car that’s not right. Waiting for December and I’ll buy new
I got a new 2024 1LT $64,569 out the door! THIS IS IN ATLANTA GA,
They make so many of them that people got rid of them after the first rattle and creeks that are inevitable when you buy a Vette or any other GM product. Got rid of mine after 4 months. Someone got mine at a steal. I’m happy I’m rid of it and I’m happy somebody got a car they love. Win win all around
great upload thank you!
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
Here here! Great upload presentation. ThanksGPC
Always buy new if you are going to KEEP it. Buy used if you are going to short term it. I heard the average age of a c8 buyer is 65! so you have a shot at the car not beeing toasted by the first owner, you gotta ask yoursel, why did they dump it?
Used if it's a one owner car, with a Carfax report and it has to be a California only car. And it must go thru a prepurchase inspection.
Great video!
Well done, Sir. I have bought new and used and feel like I have done well on either. Are you in the VA area?
Yes, I live in the southeastern area of VA
@@gerardpcollins i live in richmond va i will be getting a used one that i saw in nj at the corvette center
We are looking at economy cars for our youngest. I would not buy a used Versa or Kia. Nobody takes care of those cars and new ones can still be had for less than $20,000. Wealthier people take care of their high end cars, so those are the better used cars to buy. They usually depreciate more too.
I feel like they went a little over the top with the body style it resembles a Lamborghini or Ferrari. I personally like the older style better.
Another good video, by the way my middle name is Gerard.
You have to point out the fact of the mileage , there is a cost for each mile you drive , new is better , the cost of a corvette per mile is at least 1 dollar per mile
Just bought a 2024 new coupe base happy AF 🤩 vs a used one 3lt 5X more miles and 15k more no thank you
1:23 Is that a NA Miata?
Yes, that was my first sports car back in the mid 90s.
👍😎👍
Used save me real money no deapprecations
If C8 is as good as C7 then get used one. I owned a C7 for 7 years. Did not face much maintenance issue.
Used you get saving s
Whats the name of the color of your corvette?
Hypersonic Gray
Used one is Nicer LQQK'n
Just ordered a 2024 1lt non z51 with lile 3 options. Out the door the price is 80,1xx
One thing with used is buying a c8 people are gonna usually abuse it and those 20k or so miles will probably be hard miles. Also in vegas right now theres people trying to sell 2022 c8 1lt non z51 for 65-70k with 20k miles and then you still gotta pay taxes ans shit so youre gonna spend 70-75k anyways. To me id rather have extra warranty and oeice of mind it wasnt abused.
Also i like the color options i picked out and not so much all the used shit boomers order
Used
Neither! The new ones look like trash! Ford GT is the look!
