We know an owner selling his for $36.5K if you're interested. It's an '03 EB Z w/ 3,200 miles.

2. They are overpriced. I bought my Vette for about $7000 less than they offerred for the exact car.

3. Arrogance is a religion with Corvette Palace. When I counter offered on a car they had in stock (the exact clone of the one I bought), they not only declined my offer (fine, it's up to you) but they insulted me by suggesting that I was an idiot and/or a liar.

My recommendation: look for the car you want somewhere else. You'll save money.

If any of you are considering buying one of their cars. PM me and I'll be happy to go by their showroom, look it over, and give you my feedback. Despite my personal distaste for the husband and wife team who run the place, I'll give you an honest opinion.

Nice offer! You sound fair in your assessment
