Give it 10 years and there won’t be a 1 to the left of the 2. I’ll be happy to drive my slow C8 around in the year 2035 when all the new cool kids are driving their much faster C11 ---

I do wonder how long it will take for the prices to plummet on used ones. ---

Got to figure between the chip problem as well as covid preventing them from dumping these out the doors… there has to be a lower production number available currently. By next year this number should probably straighten out. Unreal prices though. I’d still prefer the NSX like I said before with paying higher prices like that. ---

> [@ubengineering](#): > > I like the front, not a fan of the ass Agreed, I’m not sure I would contemplate owning one, not that I’m even in a position to. I still want to row my own gears. I’m with you in thinking of snatching a C5 up but we’ll see. C6 I’d be fine with too. ---

Agreed, I’ll be getting the morimotos down the line but $1400 is a huge amount to cough up for headlights. ---

Exactly my thoughts. I spent 200$ on new lenses and some time and painted mine black. ---

Interesting that their marketing is based on the sound it makes, when in a few years they might not make any sound at all (if they go electric). ---

Interesting but not surprising. There is still a strong population that wants that visceral experience. A few other similar marketing plays: - GM filed a trademark for “Range Anxiety” in 2010 when selling the Volt - Making fun of Ford owners need of a “man step” - Cadillac currently having a save the manuals campaign with an all electric future… ---

I do love the sound of this z06, curious to see what mark-up price this will get with the current used market for c8’s over 100k right now. (STUPID) ---
