I bought my '05 in April of that year. I joined a Corvette club and started going to Corvette events all over NorCal. My car was a demo that one of the dealership owners drove for awhile. It had 1,500 miles on it. I paid 2K under MSRP. Even with as many Corvette people I was meeting, it was almost six months before I met someone who paid under MSRP. Most people I met had paid 2-5K over MSRP. Part of the reason I got mine for the price I did, even though it was demo was that I bought it from the place I used to work at.
When I was signing the papers the F&I guy (who I used to work with) said there is a 1K rebate on every new Chevrolet except the Corvette, but whoops I made a mistake and gave it to you. I said I didn't want him to get in trouble and he said the boss told him to do it. Also gave me a seven year 70K warranty for their cost, which was around $800.
