2025 Pricing is now out for Canada!

Kinda makes me think going back to 2023 it was well worth paying 5-15k over sticker prices at some of the dealers compared to holding out on a 2024-2025.

Knowing what we know now, then yes. But I was never in a position number was here to get a first year model.

My plan is also to never sell it. But that would be something very different for me.

Some things are just worth hanging onto. Maintain it and it should last longer than you. As long as 30 years down the road one of the countless “ chips “ in it fail and either there is no one to repair it or the parts to do so. My oldest vehicle at this moment is 60 years young next month, I have the build sheet, and no problem at all keeping it running well. With all of the electronics integrated into modern vehicles it will be interesting to see how things play out in that regard in the future. Fingers crossed.
 
Those of us that were patient and went through all the delays when the 2020's came out ended up pretty lucky in the end. At the time I was so frustrated with the strike and then Covid delays. I ended up trading it in three years later with 36,000kms for $12,000 more than I paid for it. Thats not happening again anytime soon :(

Keep your fingers crossed for the demand on the C9. It won't be as much as the C8 was with the mid engine changes, but there should be a big demand for the car the first few years especially if the launch price is reasonable again as it was with the C8 at 60K in the US and 70K in Canada.

What would make you think that there would be a $20,000 drop in the Canadian price ?
 
The US base price of the 2025's is up $8,400 since the launch in 2020. Canada is up about $17,700 mostly due to the currency correction.
We will have to see what happens but a change of gov't could also help for the next generation. I don't expect the C9 launch pricing to be as
low as the C8 was, but hope we have some good news like last time.
 
With the excess dealer C8 inventory this fall which is unlikely to fully find new owners by year end. Negotiate well and a buyer can be in a new MY24 C8 for less than the aforementioned $8400 USD 5 year difference. Which would pretty much leave the Canadian (approx $17,000) price change in the dust.

Purchasing a discounted MY24 C8 out of dealer inventory for greater than the estimated $17,700 5 year CAD price increase you offer has already been done. However, as much as such discounts will be exceptions, I was only suggesting with the recent 2025 pricing announcement that folks looking over the considerable inventory where the goal posts exist for what discounts are possible in today’s market. Reasonably a buyer could walk into a dealership and make a deal between the $11,500 & $17,700(currency adjusted) you mention based on recents ads and sales. Yes, that means finding a dealer willing to go to or beyond there invoice but after 5 years of selling at MSRP or worse with an ADM some are making this decision in the course of the big picture. What I am certain of are some dealers placing orders today for MY25 allocations below MSRP. Like I posted in a previous thread, it is a buyers market which is not a bad thing.

Please let me know which dealerships in Canada are willing to sell in stock and new cars for the discounts you are suggesting which is up to $7000 below dealer cost.
I am not finding those types of deals in Ontario to refer people to.
 
For those out West, dealers in Sask.,AB and BC are showing ads representing in stock C8’s anywhere from $8K to $13K off. That’s just a starting point in hope people will come thru the front door. A simple phone call will determine whether a dealer is firm or fishing and willing to negotiate further. Even after some serious back and forth that yields a significant discount, a company like TFX International will likely charge $4K or possibly more depending on the dealer location to get the car back out East. With it already having been said that the prairie dealers face an earlier and potentially harsher winter than in Southern Ontario. It makes sense that Western Chev dealers would be getting more anxious. It comes down to making some calls on cars close on one’s preferred specs and trying to make a deal. You really have a motivated dealer when you can push them to waive both the doc & fuel fees. Spectacular deals on 2024 inventory are out there and they will only be getting better as we get closer to year end.
