| - Lets start this rating from about 2 years ago. I would bring my truck in to get serviced and 2 times in a row, they did not even check the problem that I asked them to check. Even after they had my truck for more than 24 hours, they tell me its ready to pick up and I get there and they tell me they didn't even look at it??? TWICE???
Flash forward to current date, I want to buy a new Corvette. So Im thinking, well it was the service guys that boned me last time, so maybe the sales guys are better. "I live around the corner, so that's why I gave them a second chance."
I emailed the internet sales guy and tell him my interest in a 2015 Stingray. He is all over it and calls me to set up a meeting with the sales manager and I tell him I would like to test drive a 2014 as the 2015 aren't shipping for 2 weeks. He tells me he has the test drive all setup and the appointment is set.
My girlfriend and I walk in for our appointment and tell them we are here for our appointment and to test drive the 2014. The first word out of the managers mouth is, "NO". He said that they don't allow anyone to test drive corvettes. This was extremely sad to hear, as my girlfriend and I put aside the time in our busy day just to come test drive the 2014, so that we could make sure we liked it and then order the 2015.
So, then I ask them about pricing compared to MSRP. He informs me that they charge $5,000 over MSRP and that there are no exceptions. Wow. $5,000 OVER MSRP FOR A CAR!!!!!!!! He told me that every other Chevy dealer is doing the same thing and that other dealers are charging up to $8,000 over MSRP for the stingray.
-Side note: I have been calling dealers within 200 miles, ED BOZARTH Chevrolet is the ONLY one I found charging $5,000 over MSRP. I found a couple that charge $1,000 over MSRP, but also multiple dealers that just charge MSRP. So, don't give in to this BS.
He later gives us to his sales consultant Marco Farrarons so that he could show us the features of the car at least. I will say that Marco was awesome and very helpful. Great guy.
