Welcome to CorvSport’s 43rd installment of our exclusive dealer-to-dealer wholesale reports, where we visit the largest dealer-only auction in the country and handpick seven Corvettes to highlight. Today, we have a fun lineup, with six Z06s and a bonus 2026 ZR1 that has found its way to the wholesale auction. If you’ve been following along, we have been rotating between the Florida and Texas wholesale markets, and today is our first week back in Texas. We wanted to heat things up, and we hope this dedicated Z06 edition, complete with a bonus 2026 ZR1, will do the job. As with all our exclusive market features, this wholesale market report is FREE and not behind a paywall. When any pop-ups appear, please click to dismiss them and continue enjoying the article.

The C8 ZR1 market has been interesting to watch, with dealer markups that make the early C8 Z06s look like child’s play. The markups have been so ridiculously high that popular YouTuber and enthusiast Justin with HorsePower Obsessed has done a detailed breakdown on the offending dealers. We have his summary and video below today’s Corvettes.
