That is very steep. But not unusual for a Corvette. The cost of everything for a Corvette is always more expensive than other models. Caddillacs are the same way.

Matt, I was referring to sharing, as in letting the rest of us borrow your Vette.

I just got around to reading this post. Wow, that is almost totaled as far as the price goes. How about a trade when you get it finished... I let you drive the Torino, you let me drive the Corvette.... ?

Not quite, the blue book on this car is $23,040. So even if they low-ball me I'm not worried about getting totaled.
