The current car dealer–markup flavor-of-the-week is the 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. It’s absolutely a bummer when you’ve waited for the latest and greatest, only for the dealership to ignore the manufacturer’s MSRP and take advantage of demand. However, instead of paying a six-figure markup, you can acquire this vehicle for as little as $45 from Gas Monkey Garage.
That’s $45 for the whole car, not a markup above MSRP. Wait…what? Sign me up!
Here’s the skinny on this giveaway, which has several levels of tickets that you can buy:
- The Value Easy Entry Pack gives you 4,500 entries for $50, plus you will receive five exclusive Gas Monkey Garage digital wallpapers for your desktop or mobile device.
- Move up to Bronze and you’ll receive 7,500 entries for $75, plus eight digital wallpapers.
- Feeling lucky? Try your hand at Silver for 10,000 entries for $100. If you’re a digital wallpaper fan, you’ll be delighted by the 10 coming your way.
- To increase your chances of winning even more, there’s the Gold Easy Entry Pack for $200. As you may have guessed, you’ll receive 20,000 tickets and 20 exclusive digital wallpapers.
- If you’re a fan of the game Pitfall!, you know that platinum ranks higher than gold. In this sweepstakes, Platinum will net you 30,000 entries for $300, plus 30 digital wallpapers.
- The top Easy Entry Pack is Diamond. That will set you back $500, but that’s still way cheaper than a dealer markup. Of course, 50,000 entries and 50 digital wallpapers are part of the package.
“This car is practically unattainable and is by far the biggest and coolest giveaway we’ve ever done here at Gas Monkey,” says Gas Monkey’s Richard Rawlings. “Somebody is going to have a very happy holiday cruising into the New Year in this ride.”
A random drawing will be held on or around December 11, 2025, in which one grand prize winner will receive $100,000 (though, despite what we said above, you can use it any way your heart desires). Another random drawing will be held on or about December 22, 2025, just in time for Christmas, with the grand prize being a brand-new, triple-black 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 3LZ. Chevrolet claims a 233-mph top speed from the 1,064-horsepower twin-turbo 5.5-liter small-block V8. If you’re not a fan of black, you will be able to select a complimentary full exterior vinyl wrap in the color of your choice.
