The 13 427 rag top is a cool car for sure. I have had many C3 corvettes, my 80 I had 32 years with 3 builds. Had a 70, 4 speed big block, like an idiot I sold it. Had a 72, 78, 79. I few times I went and looked at a new C5 then a new C6. Never grabbed me enough to drop the coin. Wife was happy about that. First time I saw the C7, love at first sight, especially behind the wheel, fender arches made me feel like a C3. On my second C7.
I do my business for Harley's with a dealer who keeps growing and expanding while other have shut down. They have always treated me fair on my trade value. They are also fair on the Price of a new CVO. Mine times I got the first one off the truck for the new model year.
I like the C7s too buddy had a coupe in an orange color that was beautiful. I drove it and it felt like a race car to me .keep in mind I have been driving SUVs, trucks for most of my adult life. Even my wifes BMW 540 felt sedate compared to this vette. His was a Grand Sport with a 7 speed manual and I have always said if I get a Corvette it has to be manual. The 2013 is on my short list but a C7 ragtop with manual would be my backup plan especially that orange color.

Current C7 is a 2018 Grand Sport Carbon 65, 7-speed manual. Wife drives a SUV, and my Daily for the last 40 years has been pick-up. Auto is quicker in the 0-60 and quarter in the C-7, however the manual is way more fun, especially on a road course. I put more miles a Year on my CVO than my vehicles.
We bought a low mileage used CVO limited just because of the crazy high prices for mew bikes. It took a long time looking but saved thousands of dollars.

Smart move. I enjoy the thrill of a used bike search more than a new purchase. Sometimes I end up buying something completely different than I started out looking for. Resell is not nearly as costly as well.

friend of mine just scored on this beauty, 2020 cvo with 5k miles on it with some great mods on it. He went in to put a deposit down on a 2022 cvo and instead bought this. Saved a ton of cash.
Back to CVO pricing, I lucked out when I bought my 2014. It was the last Orange/Black one available in Ohio. It was in October and the 2015 models were out. I found it at a small dealer about 2 hours from home and it had a deposit on it but the guys financing fell through so I was able to buy at $3K off MSRP.
That's a beauty of a bike you have there. Bought my CVO mid-2018 for just under MSRP (but not much). Over the past few years I've made it exactly the way I want it and the new CVO offerings aren't providing any reason to replace it. Mine's already paid for - got love that.

Love hearing this - "win-win" relationships are the way to go. Good to know they're still out there to be found!

Sharp bike! Are bars like that really comfortable? I've never had bars like that on any bike, but man... "To Me" they just look like they'd be uncomfortable.
No mark up from our dealer. I put a order in on a 2022 Road Glide Limited, orange. Sure I'm getting hosed from HD for the upcharge on the paint and their greedy 1000 buck surcharge, but my dealer is knocking off a grand and waiving the transportation charge. So now the wait is on.

This dude has apes on every bike he owns so its perfect for him.
