$46K is BASE price. And look at what they are going for now compared to what the R’s are. R’s held their value and still go for $40K+ while the Z’s are low 20s high teens.

The R wasnt some “slapped together” car…

In the end, they still got beat by a dumpy ass mustang! Shows how great the vettes are by your logik!! :lol
