[QUOTE="Norton, post: 16537221, member: 145307"] I'm not Mike or Scott but, in my experience, the answer is yes. I've sold a few cars that were exceptionally well-detailed and maintained. I asked and received high-end dollars for each, with the buyers commenting that the cars' condition was a motivator for them to buy. Did I get back every dollar I put into them? Probably not, but I'm comfortable that the extra enjoyment we got from the vehicle and top-of-market prices we got for them were worth the investment. I don't want to derail Mike's thread but, FWIW, here's my perspective... I've had a 2013 GT500 since new and I added a new 2019 C7 Z06 to the stable last year. I have no intention of "upgrading" either in the foreseeable future. Major motivators (for me) were seeig the C8 (and new GT500) and learning both are unavailable with three pedals. Both cars' appearance and limited transmission options leave me disinterested in either. I strongly prefer the C7's styling and proportions over the C8's. (I think the C8's rearend looks awful!) Similarly, I think the S197's classic muscle car styling looks much better than the new GT500. In the end, it's all about taste and each prospective buyer's personal preferences in their "fun" car(s). [/QUOTE]
