Nope, #4 is not correct!.....Remember, at that time there were also quite a number of new, unsold 1963 Avantis suddenly referred to as new, unsold 1964 Avantis! Would the list price actually go UP for an unsold 1963 vehicle now being called a 1964 vehicle? Edited July 11, 2020 by mfg added sentence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Driver Posted July 13, 2020 Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 The list price for a 1963 Corvette was $4037. Today 'vettes start at $58,900. So a 2020 Avanti would probably list for just under $60k. ...if only!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
