I beleive that Reliable Chevrolet(Springfield, MO) worked themselves up to the #5 slot, but I notice they are not carring near the inventory(Corvette) they once did, and they don't seem to be as aggressive on this forum as far as promoting themselves.

CPTAHAB: Stingray in FL is #2
Who is # 1 in Florida? BTW, I know the dealers near me can't or won't even come close to a MacKulkin or Kerbecks price. Guess they figure they don't have to since both of those guys are over 1200 miles away.

As for Hendrick Corvette is concerned .. Here is what there website says:


"If you are looking for a new or pre-owned Chevrolet Corvette, you have come to the right place for all Corvette USA models! Rick Hendrick Corvette has the largest selection of USA Corvettes in the Atlanta area, and is currently the largest USA Corvette dealer".
The largest selection in the Atlanta area and "the largest USA Corvette dealer." Largest in what respect....the acreage of the dealership, the square footage of the dealership? The wording is purposely vaque and doesn't mean anything specific.

You bring up a very good point.

Classic Chevy in Grapevine TX is the #1 seller of (all models of) Chevys by volume. I'm not sure how many Corvettes they sell but it has to be up there somewhere.

Seems more than one dealer is claiming that title...

For over 77 years, Paddock Chevrolet has been delivering quality Chevrolet vehicles to Western New York and beyond. We would like to thank our loyal customers for making us the largest volume Chevrolet dealer in the nation, for the ninth straight year! We have sold more Chevrolets than any other dealer in the nation...

I am guessing that there are more dealers than these two that are making this same claim. The dealerships may be owned by former (or future) politicians.

Thanks for pointing out that copy. It is a little outdated and we are updating it now. We 'were' the largest USA Corvette dealer, but aren't right now. We are still the largest in the southeast though!

Say... a few of you all could come down and help us get back to No. 1!!

It surprises me they can get that big without a presence on CF. Went to their website, 71 new Corvettes in stock (3 leftover from 2011!), prices don't look too good either. Maybe they sell to people who don't use the internet.

I tried but you couldn't come close to Tommy Jr's price when I bought my 2012 GS.

Paddock chevy is my dealer and they do claim the highest volume chevy's, great dealership. That said I went out of state to buy my GS from one of the highest volume Corvette dealers. Chriswell Chevy in Gaithersburg MD.
