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 Porsche Boxster

Price of the Porsche Boxster: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2002 2dr Convertible 217-horsepower 2.7L H6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 this one, 7 years old was affordable
Price of the Porsche Boxster: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Convertible 295-horsepower 3.4L H6
6-speed manual RWD		 Porsche charges an arm and a leg for every little option.
2000 2dr Convertible 217-horsepower 2.7L H6
5-speed manual RWD		 I got this car for less than $10,000 from a dealer. No accidents. But because it is a Porsche, people assume I am rich and charge me much more for service. Including Detail Shops, which charge double to clean a Boxster than an equally sized Mazda Miata.
