Yes, early retirement gift to myself. My wife said I will not spend money when I retire so I better do it now! The C3 is a keeper...she wants to keep it. Me too Smile

Kerbecks in Atlantic City, NJ has some of the best pricing in the country, they sell tons of Vettes. But it's worth looking around when spending that much. Good luck.

Autotrader.com has 1,272 2014 thru 2015 vettes listed. A good place to start and see a lot of cars in one place.

I realize this is across the country from you, but give Mike Furman at Criswell Chevrolet in Gaithersburg, MD a call. He's one of the top Corvette salesmen in the country...he's personally sold over 3000 Vettes. He's one of Chevys go-to guys for feedback, training and rewards.

Mike's direct number is 301-212-4420. He'll treat you right and go the extra mile for a Vette guy.

Thanks everybody for all the advise.
Just getting my feet wet and checking prices.
Good idea on autotrader.
They list 163 verts/ manual trans.
Starting a little over 60k, w/ around a 5k discount for a new 2014.
Not bad.
Thanks again.

I am not a real hot rod kinda guy.
Just the basic Convertible with manual transmission would be nice.
Plus I am 69 years old.
And can't take it with you..

Find my post above and click the link to myGM. By joining a credit union in the GM program you can save more then $5,000. Figure around 8-9% off list.

Find someone that works for GM. They get great deals on purchases.

Have them adopt you and then they can purchase you a corvette for a gift. The cost of adoptions could equal the cost of the car.
