I'm tempted by one of these, especially with sub £50k cars cropping up, but wonder how far they'll fall from there and how fast. I noticed the price I paid for my c6 z06 five years ago isn't much more than you'd pay today, is the stingray going to do so well? How many cars are out there?

I would think the C6 Z06 has a rarity value now, most Euro ones have been exported to Europe.
The Stingray is a rare car but it will become "less rare" over the coming years.
I would think a Euro spec one would hold it's value better than an imported one.
My thinking is that a car "nut" would know the ins and outs of the imports, but a general sports car "buyer" wouldn't and would want a Euro spec car.
As for the depreciation, they will drop but by how far might depend on the spec of the car and availability, all which will change.

The red C7 in the classifieds is a nice car and it's price has just come down another couple of grand in Autotrader. Cheapest one in the UK now.

(It's not by car, by the way, but I do know the owner well)
