I think it would be good for us to know the Dealership name and location. I'm sure there are a lot of people who might think twice about buying from a dealership with a GM that really likes to insult people and has absolutely no respect for used cars.......

Word does travel.....

You got it all wrong... thats what his wife/girlfriend told him! Shes out with other guys since hes past his prime. All he could do is drive a vette so he can look cool - although it doesn't work for him!

I dont think there`s any question about that.Even my friends that have C5s and 6s agree with that.I get more looks when driving my 1980 Corvette than I do in my Z06 and thats Millenium Yellow!...

I occasionally drive my 75 to work and when I do I hear comments from my co-workers like " You can tell who's making the money around here " and " It's hard to hide your money" There are $25,000 - $45,000 cars all over the parking lot and my $ 5000 car gets all the attention.

This is so true... i drive my wifes loaded durango with leather dvd homelink and a hemi.. everyone is like uhhh.. OK... I drive my 77 vette and they're all thinking I'm rich... I paid 7k for it AND INVESTE 1K...

By the way........... Do yourself a favor.. go rent a z06 and drive it to work... ask him to race (pretend it's your second "beater" car compared to your 76) and tell him how much better your 76 feels.
Maybe you can even take his parking spot.... hehehe
A$$home salesman....

so true - it's funny you cruise in a nice c3 poeple think your loaded.... roll up in a c6 and hell, for all most people care it COULD be a rental and besides, any jackass can go out and buy a new ANYTHING. it takes a special passion and a certain amount of know how to research, purchase and maintain a cherry *classic*.
