Default 2005 prices

The new Corvettes are starting to show up at the dealers
and I am surprised at how high the sticker prices are.
They are in the $50K to $55K range for a coupe.

I wasn't expecting the price to be so high.

"$50K to $55K"

I wish.... dealers say there is a $8k premium on the first ones delivered.
The few we have (usually presold) are averaging $63-67K !

Some preloading of options no doubt. Base coupes are under $45k

I agree Bob, my 2005 coupe order with about the same equipment as my CE came
out about $390 less then the 2004 MSRP. That is one of the reasons I ordered
the 6 speed this time. Are they actually being sold? I thought they were not
released for public ownership yet. In other words, is there an official
release date?
