Before you buy
Each figure covers a wide range. Check the range and mileage on each card: low-mileage and well-documented cars sell for well above the median.
Within a generation, the Z06 and ZR1 cost far more than the base car. A C6 Z06 typically sells for $47K and a C6 ZR1 $107K, against $26K for a base C6.
The Grand Sport is the middle ground in the C6 and C7 ranges: Z06 bodywork and brakes with the base engine. A C7 Grand Sport typically sells for $56K.
The figures leave out charity auctions of the first cars built, which sell for millions, and one-off race cars such as the original Grand Sport.
Classic C1, C2 and C3 prices depend on originality, engine and documentation, and restomods sell for more than stock cars.

Methodology
Based on 5,586 completed North American auction sales from the last 2 years on the online auctions and auction houses we track, priced in US or Canadian dollars. Sales in other currencies are left out, since their prices carry other taxes and duties, and so are fixed-price listings, which record an asking price. Canadian prices are converted to USD. Each price is the median sale, the way our valuations work, and typical ranges show the middle half of sales (25th–75th percentile). The sample is refreshed regularly. A change in the cars sold can change the median without any individual car gaining or losing value.
