Sign of the Times? Montana Dealer Selling New Corvette Stingrays for $3,000 Off MSRP

We keep hearing that the market for the C8 Corvette Stingray has started to cool down. While we’ve seen evidence of that in the secondary market with the prices of pre-owned Corvettes dropping and the time to sale increasing, we know many dealers who still have a list of customers wanting to order the new Corvette. However, our attention was definitely piqued with this post on the Corvette Forum from a Montana Chevrolet dealer offering to sell two new Stingray “Stock Orders” for under $3,000 MSRP.

While most dealers can order Stock Units for sale by their dealership, they are still limited to the allocation numbers awarded to them. That’s why why Customer Sold Orders make up the majority of Corvette orders by dealerships as they are still working to fill their customer’s orders.

Coley J. is the finance manager for Missoula Chevrolet in Montana who posted these two Corvettes for sale yesterday. We spoke with him on Friday morning and they are indeed discounted from their MSRP and are available. If you are interested in either, contact Coley @ 406-532-2441 or via email at: [email protected].

I must say that it has been forever since we’ve seen new Corvettes marketed for under MSRP and something tells me these two cars won’t be around long. We just wish this “aggressive pricing scheme” would find its way into more dealer playbooks, but that will only happen after most dealers have satisfied their customer lists.

  3. I’m sorry c8 guys, but I’m still not seeing much left of a “corvette look” in the new cars. I feel they have moved too far afield from its roots. Looks too much like some European supercar than an American Icon the vette has always been.
    Again, sorry to you C8 loving guys. Really and truly.

  4. That’s a start. Still needs to drop like a rock. I bought my Grand Sport new in the summer of 2019 and got $8000 off, and there was no recession then. Funny, cars like mine (M7) are still selling for more than what I paid new.

  5. Was at my dealer for service yesterday. He had a ’24 Black over black Z51 Coupe on the floor for two weeks. Still priced at MSRP, but not sold yet. Said a couple if parties interested but no one has stepped up to buy yet. Interesting.

  7. I believe eventually we’ll be back to the halcyon days of real nice discounts. More like what I experienced January 2020 when I got my MSRPd $92,188 priced C7 Z06 for $72,620.

  8. Though I’m aware of the performance of the latest Corvette I still enjoy the c5 one of the most beautiful vettes ever built today.

  9. Consumer power talks!
    Let the morons who want to spend way over the odds, buy the first one’s and then eventually, the price will come down once no one else take’s the bait!
    Artificially high prices on all goods now are a joke. When the dealerships can’t shift them they start feeling the pinch too.

  12. Yeah, that’s not MSRP. that’s $3000 off the ridiculous mark up price. I just googled it, the MSRP is $64,500. Just thought I’d put that out there. Not saying you can buy one at that price, only stating what the actual MSRP is.

  13. Matthew, each of the three trim levels has an official MSRP, not just the base car, and the MSRP prices are different for Coupes and Convertibles as well. A loaded 3LT Convertible also has an MSRP set by Chevrolet and it’s wrong to call that a “markup” over the base price of a 1LT Coupe.
