What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Chevrolet Corvette

Price of the Chevrolet Corvette: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8
6-speed manual RWD		 Hard to find a car near this performance level for the dollar.
Price of the Chevrolet Corvette: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Costs quite a bit of money
2003 2dr Coupe 405-horsepower 5.7L V8
6-speed manual RWD		 Can get very expensive with too many options and dealers are reluctant to discount the price, but that is changing as cars with large V8 engines get harder to sell.

What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class

Price of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr SUV turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel
7-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 For $80,000 I expect more from a vehicle.
2010 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 4.7L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 $1100 per month. Lots of other cars that are almost as nice and much cheaper.
2008 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 4.7L V8
7-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 With options, it can get pricey.
2008 4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel
7-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 The price on this car is a tough pill to swallow for working class people. If it were not for a great trade-in, I probably could not justify the price.
