In February, they offered it for 36 months, but only in some states. I missed out on that deal, though I'm sure it will be back around sometime soon. My question is, if I go to another state, and buy the car, do I get the 0% deal, or do I have to live in the state the deal is offered?

As far as them being able to "afford one with the interest".......why then, can I buy a 45,000 dollar Tahoe and get 0%? Just because I can AFFORD to throw a 10 dollar bill out the window every dya, doesn't mean I'm going to.

Buddy, there are still a slew of 06's left. This argument that the potential buyer "can afford" to pay interest makes no sense. I'm sure a potential buyer (me) would rather take those thousands of dollars in interest and put it in the gas tank.

I bought a truck in 2003 in Louisiana because the deal was better there than in Texas, where I live. The dealer didn't even blink an eye at me being from out of state. I was even trading in a Texas-plated SUV.
They mailed me a check to my home address for the taxes to register it in my state since the dealer ususally does that for you on in-state purchases.
Additionally... I paid cash for that truck ($39,000) and there was no red flag, no proof of where the money came from and the IRS for sure wasn't notified. So Walt, I'm not sure where you got that information, but it's not entirely true - at least it wasn't in my case.
My take?
Leave the brand new Vettes on the showroom floor and buy one with character! I have a C3 1980 L-82 that still turns heads. I even got in the paper twice without doing anything but owning it! Someone's gotta keep those spark plugs firing!
My Vette was $9,000 and then I put some work into it, so all told it cost me less than $20,000 to get it running like a dream and looking like new. (And the new Vettes still wave to us on the road!)

If you can afford to buy the Vette the interest on its peanuts...
The Factory doesn't need to do this to motivate slumping sales Vettes have always sold well...
since a 06 C6 Convertible with all the bells and whistles plus the up grades on the valve covers from black to red etc...
My friend here in Boise bought a new one and special ordered it and waited then paid cash yep $75,000 US without blinking an eye...
if you can afford the payments you can afford the intersest too...
also be aware if you try paying cash like Gary Did... on precaution... you better have an income sufficient to prove where you got the money, a bank acct the money came out of, proof of hitting the lottery etc...
any vehicle purchas in cash of over around $9,500.00 US in cash gets an auto matic red flag check it out warning sent from dealer to the IRS...

If you can afford to buy a vette new, then you wouldnt need 0 percent on the finance. This is Chevrolets biggest selling car for more than 50 years. They want to keep them in their showrooms as long as possible. Only so many corvettes are produced each year, and the dealerships only maybe get 1 or 2 per dealer. the more people to visit the showroom, the odds increase that they may sell another car. I could be wrong, but this is my take on it. I worked as a service writer for a large Chevrolet dealer in the 80's and we never had the opporunity to keep a Corvette on outr floors.

I own a shop, and can answer this one. People that can afford to buy a Vette can afford to pay the interest, and they know this. As far as if you go to another state, that will be up to the dealer as to whether or not you get the deal. Just ask them to make sure.
Glad to help out, Good Luck!!!

Because they don't need to offer 0% financing to sell them, as they do with the big SUV's. 0% financing is just a tool to sell, not an effort to make it cheap enough to sell.

only serious purchasers get vettes.... these purchasers have money.. period... vettes are sold out almost 2 years in advance.. there is no need for gm of offer incentives on this vehicle.. it just commands sales
