All three mentioned by WALC are really big volume dealers that would be glad to ship to you. Kerbeck in AC is #1 or #2 in Vette sales Nationally. You could also try Bast Chevrolet in Seaford, NY. Ask for Pete (a good salesman -- I came close to buying a CPO C5 from him just before I stumbled onto the SRT-6 -- would have too but for an unexpected illness in the family). They had two '07 in December that I'm sure they'd sell to you @ $12k below list. One was a pretty funky copper colored pace car convertible.

Re-sale on the Vette will still be at least $20k+ less in 3 years than what you paid for it (an even bigger hit if you were to trade it in). Plus there's additional sales tax that you'll never see back. Unless you think SRT-6 convertibles will be going for $2,500 three years from now, you'd be pretty hard pressed at this point to do better on cost of ownership for a late model 2 seat sports car than an SRT-6. You could probably sell a Prius 3 years from now for only $3k or $4k less than what you paid for it, but then again you'd have to drive around in a Prius for 3 years. What price on that?
