Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray owner tries to sell ‘incredibly special’ car after seven months but no one’s buying

A man tried to sell his ‘incredibly special’ 2025 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray 2LZ after an ‘unforgettable’ seven months of ownership, but no one was keen on buying.

Chevy unveiled the hybrid E-Ray back in 2023, and it went into production shortly after. 

At its launch, the E-Ray was the fastest production Corvette ever with a 0-60mph time of just 2.5 seconds. 

However, it seems that when it comes to sales, this 2025 model wasn’t quite as quick off the mark after it failed to meet its reserve.

The Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray was bought new just seven months ago

The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray 2LZ was bought new in June 2025 for $125,320. 

The head-turning C8 is finished in gleaming black exterior paint over a jet black interior. 

The car sits on 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels and comes with a smart power-retractable hardtop. 

Inside, you’ll find heated, ventilated, and power adjustable bucket seats, a heated steering wheel, and a Bose Performance Series sound system. 

The E-Ray has a hybrid powertrain, which combines a 6.2-liter V8 engine with an electric motor to produce up to 655 horsepower, and has just 3,556 miles on the clock. 

The owner of the car recently listed it on Cars & Bids where he admitted that it hadn’t been an easy choice to decide to sell. 

“This car has been incredibly special to my wife and me,” he revealed. 

Before adding that most of the car’s miles were added on during four ‘memorable’ road trips that allowed the couple to experience how exhilarating the Corvette is. 

The owner was hoping to sell the car on to the ‘next enthusiast’ who would love it as much as he had, but things didn’t quite work out that way.

It attracted plenty of bids, but the top one just wasn’t high enough

Price depreciation is just something new car owners have to get used to, but sometimes it can hit particularly hard. 

Like this 2023 BMW i7 xDrive60 that lost more than 50 percent of its value in just two years, or the Tesla Model Y owner who said he had lost around $650-750 per month through depreciation. 

And this was something the Corvette owner found out firsthand. 

The car did attract a flurry of interest, pulling in just shy of 30 bids in total.

However, when the auction drew to a close, the top bid sat at $92,000, and it wasn’t quite enough to tempt the seller to part with his ‘Vette, which cost more than $125,000 just seven months ago.

But he didn’t seem as disappointed as you might think. 

“I think I’ll go for a little ride this evening in my E-Ray,” he commented after bidding finished.
