I want a Z06 in that new purple color, in a convertible with the black roof.

I agree I’d rather have a vert it’s a hard roof and when down it’s like a targa or ttop look. I really like the orange or purple with white interior or white with red interior

Praise to GM for making every single one of these cars they can. Unlike Ferd that made a total of 15k GT500's over four model years that kept the dealers charging over MSRP and keeping them out of the common mans hands.

14,130 GT500's across 3 years to be exact. As an owner of a gt500 and a big fan of the c8 z06 and zr1, i praise both companies lol

At least Ford makes special cars and limits thier production so they hold thier value better than GM.

I'm not buying cars for investment purposes. Make enough of the damn things so that everyone that wants one, can get one. Ford likes giving the big middle finger to its customers in regards to it's special vehicles.

That’s the least they can do to x loyal customers. It’s there world they do what they want. They don’t even allow axz plan on certain vehicles. Just look at that whole GTD mustang only certain ballers can have them

I don’t agree with Chevrolet making that many zo6’s they should have made 2000 coupes and 1800 verts in that year.

Why, so salesmen can make more on retainer/hold back/whatever the fuck it's called this week?

Not that you'd have a biased opinion or anything.

My opinion has nothing to do with what a Fucking salesman makes or the dealership holds out on. I’m simply saying they should have made more stingrays and kept the z more limited so that you don’t see 4 in the Starbucks line and 20 lined up at a cruise night.

Well I was a LOYAL Ford customer and you know that. I tried to buy a new gt500 and after a few weeks and countless emails, I gave up because even though most dealers had cars sitting for months, they would not sell for MSRP. If Ford would have built 10k more of the damn things, maybe I could have gotten into one, and guess what, I wouldn't have gave one damn shit they made so many of them. They do the same fucking thing with all their specialty vehicles from the Raptors, to whatever overpriced Mustang they are currently selling(Darkhorse), to even the Focus RS when it was around. So thanks Ford for fucking your LOYAL customers, which I am no longer.

Maybe one day I'll be able to get into a C8Z because GM isn't so moronic to limit a vehicle that literally everyone wants.

Thats awesome. The car industry right now seems to have tanked badly so not completely shocked. Remember when you couldn't buy a Bronco or a Maverick? Now I drive by Victor Ford everyday, and even that tiny ass dealer has multiple units rotting on the lot.

I blame Ford for not making enough and then dealer for taking advantage. Like I said, I emailed a good 10-15 dealers a couple years back that had GT500's sitting on the floor ready to sell. The best offer I got was like $7k over sticker if I remember right. Most were 10-15k over for cars that were sitting. Just puts a bad taste in my mouth.

It is a shame they don’t make enough but nothing has changed over the years.

You might not be buying cars for invesment purposes, but watching your "special" vehicle lose value like a kia because they made 100,000 of them sucks too.
