Default Tommy is "THE" Man!!

I bought my '06 and '11 Vette's from Tommy and can only add to the other posts about the great experience dealing with him. He has to be the most up-front and honest dealer I have ever dealt with. No games, no fees, straight shooter and best of all, no nonsense. He already knows I will be back for another!!

2021 C6 of the Year Finalist - Modified

Default

Bought my GS from "Smiling Eddie" (just his nickname) at our local dealership here.





Can you believe it ... I actually got the car for $50 below "Dealer Invoice"!

Eddie even had to argue with the sales manager over the price, because I was told they actually lost money on the deal.

They even put a little extra gas in the car for free, and sold me an additional warranty at "there cost"!

I did have to pay "Additional Dealer Markup", but it was explained to me that everyone that buys a Corvette pays that since these cars are in high demand and the car lot just gets a couple of them every year. Well, I didn't mind paying it after they told me that I got the car for less than they paid for it.

Anyway, I didn't even need to get my own financing either. They took care of everything since they said they actually own there own finance company! (they also will do "payday loans", which is really handy)

I'm not real sure exacly what the total price on the car really was, but they were nice enough to get the payments low enough where I could afford the car!

He must have relatives up North because this is what he was trying to sell.



Look familiar?

BTW the vert looks great and I hear nothing but good things about Tommy.

Default MacMulkin IS the best in Corvette sales - bar none

We shopped around for a 2011 GS in crystal red for many months - and found MacMulkin Chevrolet listed on this forum. Tommy gave us the best price we'd encountered in his first email to us. We were extremely leary of buying a car sight unseen - but Tommy was so patient and sent us photos and emails, and made us comfortable enough that we signed on the dotted line. The loan and car papers were fed-X'd to us and then we shipped the car to California in an enclosed carrier company called Intercity who beat everyone's prices. Tommy's used them many times and has never had a problem with them. The entire transaction went without a hitch and my husband is the happiest I've seen him in a long time! Tommy's pricing for our new 2011 GS was $3,000 under what we were finding for a used 2010 model here in CA - and that was AFTER shipping!. Go Tommy!!!

I ordered a 2007 coupe from Tommy and then purchased a 2010 vert from him. Both were the best car buying experiences of my life, no BS !!

The white with the silver stripes looks great IMO. That's actually one of the best white coupes I have seen.

When you mention these discounts, are these before any rebates, GM card earnings, etc?

This included GM incentives, etc.
I do not carry a GM card, it was everything Tommy gave me.

Well, even though I did NOT buy a car from Tommy....he gave me an excellent price and good trade. I didn't get it because we are moving. He will be on my short list if and when I buy another Corvette.

It's when you order the car through one dealer, but have it shipped to and take delivery at a different one. The dealer doing the delivery charges a fee, which I suppose varies from dealer to dealer.

I am also at Houston and the price here at local dealers are crazy. I went to a machaik on I10, after spending 3 hours at the dealer (a test drive and asking questions, because the salesman didn't know the car well, had to google every time I asked a question), the best price on a regular corvette without Z51 they gave me in person was even $2,000 higher than what they put on their website!! And before we left, they called the manager to come talk to me. I said I needed a week to think about it (because that was the first dealer I went to, I wanted to check with more dealers to get a best price). Guess what the manager said: oh then you guys just go back to the woodlands and we will never see you again! and then just walked away without saying anything! I was like wow. It was a complete waste of time and horrible experience! And yet they wonder why they dont get the biz.

Anyways, I just wanted to ask you, how much you paid for the shipping? What company you chose?

Thanks

What's even more interesting is that this is the first post that "AW9" has even made on this forum, yet he somehow managed to revive a 4 1/2 year old thread!

He dug deep for this one!
