Politics will certainly end up injuring used buyers more than fins
–>
- Corvette ZR1 buyers must wait 12 months before putting their cars or penalties.
- Buyers who do not wait will be put on black list by Chevrolet and the second buyer loses the warranty.
- The new policy reflects past chevrolet rules but does not solve all the problems with the ZR1.
The Corvette ZR1 lighthouse is almost there, and buyers are ready for this. Of course, the fins are also excited – simply for the same reasons. Chevrolet, however, seems determined to spoil their plans with a strategy we have heard of before. The automaker has announced that anyone sells its ZR1 in a year opposite two specific penalties.

First, Chevrolet will take place black these customers to have access to other highly desirable models in the future. Second, they will delete the cover of the guarantee of the car in question. It certainly hurts the second buyer, but Chevy undoubtedly hopes that it will discourage fins from getting involved at all. Trying to sell an almost new car that starts from $ 175,000 without any guarantee could be difficult.
A familiar plan, with familiar consequences
This information comes from the famous Corvette dealer and passionate Rick Conti. He underlined a letter from Chevrolet which will accompany all sales of Corvette ZR1, ZO6 and E-Ray in the predictable future. In this document, the automaker presents all the terms of the agreement. In short, it aims to penalize the fins and make it more difficult for them to make a rapid profit on these highly sought -after corvette models.
But let’s be honest, this plan is not much to stop the fins on their traces. What is that do To do is to make life miserable for used buyers more than anything else. This does not prevent the fins from grasping cars in the first place, and it will not prevent dealers to slap these scandalous markings for the Corvette ZR1 of 1,064 hp.
What he will do is, however, ruin the property experience for certain used buyers. As Chevrolet points out, it is the responsibility of the first owner to speak to the second owner of all this situation.
Inevitably, some fins will sell the car without disclosing this fact. Then, the second owner will be out of warranty even before having it recorded in his local state.
What else can they do?
The people of Corvetteblogger have launched an interesting idea: maybe Chevy should simply offer non-negotiable leases of 12 months on these models. This would force the fins and the dealers in a corner, ensuring that cars end up with people who really want to drive them – not just returning them. Alternatively, Chevrolet could completely bypass the eternal useless by selling customers directly to customers, removing unnecessary markings and following the cars in real time. It’s a thought, right?
But until it happens, it seems that Chevy’s “plan” is just another way to penalize bad people – while always letting fins do their thing. Go represent.
