Default West Coast Corvette Visit

Whats up guys I live across the bridge from San Diego and was thinking of taking my girl and the vette up to Anhiem to go to WCC. Was wondering if anyone has ever been and seen there inventory. Is it worth it or is it just another over priced corvette auto zone? Thanks for the help guys.

I live in AZ but whenever I spend time in San Diego to cool off, I always head up to Anaheim to checkout WCC. The place is awesome. Their floor display is not overly huge, not like a Autozone or Checkers, but they usually have all their catalog merchandise in stock. They have great prices and they give a 10% break to Corvette Forum members. The service is top notch and they are very knowledgeable. They also sell and service Corvettes. Every time I have been there, they usually had some very nice Vettes for sale. C1-C6s. Some very beautiful cars I have seen there. Even the parking lot is usually full with very cool Corvettes. Their may be better Corvette stores out there, but I don't know of any, certainly not on the West Coast. Its definitely worth the trip from anywhere in SOCAL. Also, only a few miles from Disney.

All are good, he's really good to talk to and ask advice. He'll also give you a good price.

Lived in SD when I was in the Navy, loved it, came up here to work and haven't been able to get back. OC is great .... watch the forum for the next Block Head gathering ..SD group always seems to make it up here.

Went there for their grand opening at their new address. Lots of service bays, good sales staff and a "hot" dumpster

Usually their prices are pretty good. A visit to their store would be a good excuse to go for a nice cruise.

WCC is over an hour away from me, but any chance I'm near Anaheim, I always enjoy stopping by. If not to buy something, just check out their lineup of cars for sale and the ooh-ahh feeling that your among corvette lovers.

The facility is done very nicely and I have found the staff to be exceptional... I've always had exceptional customer service with them.

I bought my rims, tires, exhaust and x-pipe from WCC - great service. I've returned some smaller items (rear letter set, cold air screens and modified stock air box) and had a good experience with that too. The only problem I've had is with orders north of the 49th your stuck with UPS or Fed Ex - UPS is murder on shipping rates, brokerage fees, etc. If your close enough to drive there that would definitely be the same as Disneyland for me.

Nice shop. Great helpful people there. Just was there a month ago getting my corvettes dynoed on their special. Prices are like others. Some things are cheaper elseware and some things you can get cheaper there. Their display of sale items are not a great sized display but to drool over. Even more so are the cars for sale on display.

Also mentioned above is Corvette mikes. They are just down the road from there. They have a real nice display of vettes for sale. I would recommend going by there as well to add to the cruise. Make for a real nice day.
