80 miles. White on caramel, convertible. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...n=Model_Update

 

Insanity is buying this car for $150k after a $20k markup (ok ok, $10-12k markup since the full stealth PPF + tint might actually be worth $8-10k) and then flipping it 80 miles later. WTF.

No way it sees $150k on BaT, and I'll happily put my foot in my mouth if it does.

 

My 2021 Structural Blue Inspiration Series sold in 2022 on BAT for $175k. (not by me but the person I sold it to). I know...different times back then...

 

Watching the used car values as the new car availability is totally exhausted will be a treat to follow. Won't matter to the addicted, but will be a litmus in testing depth of LC's appeal in the GT market overall. Greatly appreciated, under appreciated, or just average contender. Great ride ahead.

 

Funny thing is I'm sure this car will exceed the 142k the dude paid. So jokes on the buyer, they are the ones who are gonna pay for that bullshit 20k tint/ppf package.

 

a good litmus test for our cars. i got a feeling it'll past the 140k mark too.

 

alot of C8 owners are hating life after paying big ADMs.

 

But most those guys can care less about it.

 

I've seen crazy things happen on BaT. The ad itself can make a world of difference, along with good seller reputation and participation. You just never know.

 

Biggest difference is close to 200K C8 Corvettes produced since 2020.
LC 500 roughly 15-18K (Worldwide) since 2018.

 

I 'tried' to order a C8 Corvette when they first launched in 2020 and was told by my local Chevy dealer (Cary, NC) it was a 14-month wait and the ADM was ~$12K (no exceptions). So rather than stroking a check for one, I waited and ordered an LC 500 convertible instead. Now, a 2020 Corvette would be worth about ~$65K and my LC keeps going up in value. I smile every time I fire up my car

 

Am I the only one who finds it odd that people would order a car like this, Bespoke, without the LSD?

 

yes.

 

Went back and forth with my dealer several times while ordering my bespoke, LSD wasn't a stand-alone option and we were eventually told by Lexus that LSD is included in the bespoke package.

 

Oh, so it's there but not broken out as a separate feature on the window sticker? That makes sense, though clearly the seller has no idea or they'd want to mention it...
