Best in the business. I bought my 99 from Ken sight unseen. It was better then he described. They have a great reputation and you can buy/sell or trade with confidence.

I also bought from Ken @ the VetteNet and was very satisfied to find someone who actually told me the truth about the status of my car, and provided a discount on the purchase.

Bought my C6 from Ken on 7/23 of this year. Got a better deal than any of the other supporting dealers were offering, and picked it up in bowling green 5 weeks later.

The Vette Net is

Ken is a great guy
I sold an '02 Z06 through the Vette Net handled by Ken. Very smooth transaction for me as well as the buyer as he guided the sale every step of the way. Nothing but good feedback from anyone who has ever used them in a sale or purchase. Do not hesitate doing business with them.

Thanks folks, that Corvette forum, what a great place. My dealer keeps giving me the run around, I'm on his list. Started out with a 3 month wait, then 4, then jumped to 18 month I said that's it, I asked for my deposit back and got it with no hastle. So I sent few PM to some of the forum dealers and none, I mean NONE replied, I was very surprised (it's been about 10 days). Now I'll be calling Ken at the Vettenet. Thanks again folks. I'll post pictures when the car arrives

18 month wait?!?! For what? I sure hope that is a Z06 that you are looking for. If anyt dealer is telling you an 18 month wait for a coupe/convertible, they must not get many vettes in a year.

BTW, I spoke with Ken and if I hadn't already decided on a local dealer which gave me a good discount, I would have gone with Ken which offered a slightly better one and was always very responsive to my emails.

The VetteNet is great. I got my '99 Nassau Blue beauty from them. They walked me through the whole searching/info/buying/shipping experience without any problems. Ken even went out, got some digital snapshots on two different occasions and sent them to me. Also looked over the car, etc. When they shipped it to my front door (from Missouri to Houston) it was BETTER than what I had hoped it would have been. Nothing negative to say about VetteNet

Ken helped me make the connections for my 05 1SA coupe ordered with GMID. My Vette came off the line 8-9-05 (per Kevin) and has yet to be delivered. This is huge concern to me. I blame GM and Allied for my Vette's continueing delivery problems and I hope this issue is resolved soon. This is not Ken's fault. Ken is a geat guy and I will do business with him again.

If the C6 you want is out there on a lot Ken will find it - or the closest thing to it. You might wind up with a 1SB for the same price!

I ordered my 2001 vert from Ken and he found it and had it delivered in less than two weeks, at a time when most buyers were waiting months for their cars. I just ordered a 2006 vert from Ken after shopping the local dealers as well as this site's supporting dealers and Ken beat them all and I already have a TPW of 9/19 and a VIN. I highly recommend Ken for a smooth and quick transaction.
