Here's Why The C7 Corvette Z06 Is Still Expensive

In this video I talk about why the C7 Corvette z06 is still expensive. The C7 generation of the Corvette Z06 has been around for several years at this point and still has a lot of appeal. After all, it still has the 6.2 liter, supercharged, V8 engine that makes 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. The Z06 in this video is equipped with the Z07 package which makes this Corvette a track handling monster

But, lately, the C7 Z06 prices have been on the rise and many people wonder why? Well, first off, the C7 Z06 is still an unbelievably fast car and it looks great. Second, its the last Corvette that you'll probably be able to get in a manual transmission. For these reasons that C7 Z06 prices have remained steady, and in some cases, have been appreciating in price.

Overall, the C7 Corvette Z06 is an amazing car with a lot of power, speed, and good looks. The interior and technology is starting to show some age, however, its still serves as a functional interior with decent quality. Let me know if you have any questions about the C7 Z06!

I have a 2019 Z06 and I wouldnt trade it for anything...Absolutely love it

[danskuy]

C8 is brilliant, but c7 corvette is best looking corvette for me

[lappydog]

I picked up a 16 z06 4 months ago with 4k miles. 84k sticker paid 82k. Absolutely love it!!

[nte.j]

My dream car since they released that body style in 2014. I got a c6 z06 now, one day I’ll get the c7z..

[lGoodViewu]

I love my 2017 Z06 7MT. Up from 650/650 to 833/809. (725whp & 704wtq) What a monster.

I own one of these cars. I have found that under full power that the automatic does not shift slowly at all. I have owned several corvettes and the ZO6 is the best by far of any that I have owned. You are absolutely correct when you say that the car will get away from you if your not careful.

As a retired veteran street cop of 24 years, I know speed that most don't. My 2019 Z06 is faster than any patrol car with a "police" package I've ever driven. The handling is incredible with the 335/25r 20 Michelin tires and enhanced brakes & suspension. The raw power is more exhilarating than driving code 3 at 130+ mph with emergency blue lights & siren activated to a hot call. It's a collector's dream car for the ages, for multiple reasons.

Nice Vid. I have a 15 Z07 manual and I am shocked at the prices that they are selling for these days. I think its all about the fact that the C8 is auto only. Not everyone likes paddle shifters! and the manual gives you a much better feel and control of the car. Keep up the good work.

$70k is a steal. They actually went up in price recently

[Footballkid]

8:27 rear tire on cords fighting for its life! 😅

[mnoell]

Dude I remember watching this video last month and getting a Z06 wasn’t even a thought. Well, I now have a 2019 1LZ Z06. Unbelievable! Wow!

[harrisonmauldin]

this is my absolute dream car, I would give anything to be able to drive one of these

[RobScire]

one of the best well spoken car reviewers, i’m impressed great video

[williamwhite]

Currently just got a job where they will let me work all the overtime I want. I’ll be joking the corvette family at the end of this year or early next year

[pontiacGXPfan]

I went on a ride in one of the nose pitches up it's like the afterburners are lit and the torque glues you to the seat. it's kinda scary but at the same time it's so much fun

[peterrusso]

26:52 the shortcoming he mentions (but doesnt say to shill the car), is that the there is a very noticeable delay when you manually shift gears in the automatic. It requires you to press the paddle wayyy earlier than redline, so the car shifts right before redline

[darkskinddon]

Got mines 3 weeks ago with the manual this shit is too much fun

[Hey_Blinkin]

Proud owner of a Watkins Glen Gray 19 Z06 (looks the same color as this) and like someone else said, I will never get rid of it. I expect decent money in thirty years at auction. Until then, I will continue hurting feelings out on the street.

[ClaytonYatescarenthusiast]

I just bought a 2019 z06 manual. Setting it up for road course. They do still need quite a bit of cooling. Also 2019 auto has a giant radiator that the manual didn't get. I just swapped in the auto radiator into my manual last night. 1.25 inches vs 2 inch thick. Also doing lg cooling kit

[bigjermify]

Man I was looking at prices of these a few days ago and yeah they are still quite expensive. Absolutely beautiful tho I think this car will still look and be amazing for awhile. Timeless design really.
