What's a C7 With a Wild Wide Body Kit Worth?

This might be the best time in history to be a fan of the Corvette Stingray. Not only do you get incredible performance for only a fraction of what you would pay for a European sports car, but you also get one of the most aggressive body designs ever released by Chevrolet. But for some it’s just not enough.

Take for instance this gorgeous Black C7 that recently sold with a list price of over $139,000! Put up for sale by Progressive Motorsports, the C7 features a unique body style that appears to be similar to the Forgiato wide-body kit.

Sure it gives the C7 an incredible look, but with a price tag of $139k? Obviously it worked, as the unique C7 wasn’t for sale for long, before a lucky buyer picked it up. Funny enough, the dealership now has an Arctic White C7 with a similar body kit listed on its site for $129,000.

Ordering a brand new 2014 3LT Stingray with every option you can imagine including the Z51 package will push the retail price north of $80-85k. So it begs the question, is the unique body kit worth the extra $50k?

Keep in mind, that underneath the unique exterior is the same 6.2L and 7-speed manual that you’ll find from the factory, along with many options available from the factory. If you are going to spend that type of money, why not just show a little patience and order the mighty Z06?

It sure appears as if the dealership has found a way to push the Corvette to a $130,000 price tag. But given the fact that beyond that pretty shell its a standard 3LT Corvette is it worth it?
