Rick Daniel C6 Purchase
I never purchased a car over the internet before
and I was a little skeptical.
I found out it was the easiest and best way to purchase a car
and the price was great compared to the local dealers. There was no haggling about the price and the price quoted was the price.
Anyone skeptical about buying a corvette over the internet should not be afraid to do so.
If you are getting Museum delivery you should allow as mush time as possible between the build date and delivery.
Transferring paper work tags, tital ect. through the mail takes a little time.
Rick and Michelle at Les Stanford were great to work with.

It has been over a year now, but the experience of buying from Rick continues to be great. Not only was the primary experience great, I received a call from Michelle about a year out. Upon hearing that I had problems with the gas cap and had replaced it, she sent me a check for reimbursement.
How's that for after sales service?
These comments are based on my experience only. I do not have any affiliation with Rick. He is truly a class act for Corvette sales.
PS: Not to mention, 17.5 k fun filled miles, and everyone of them better than the one before.

Bought mine from Rick back in March of 2007 and he is a class act. Keeps his promises and works hard to help make sure you're treated right. I drove 8 hours from my house to Les Stanford to get the car and never saw Rick until the day I picked it up. He handled everything over the phone better then anyone else was able to do face to face.

I'm sure there are enough great stories about Rick to fill a book. Let me just add that I contacted him early this past spring and ordered a JSBlue Z51 weeks before the announcement at the April bash. Told him I HAD to have one. Well, even with the early constraints on JSBlue Rick managed to get my order through the system. It ended up being the very first R8C JSBlue delivered. I live in California, Rick is in Michigan, and I took delivery in Kentucky. Everything went smooth, using FedEx to exchange funds and paperwork. Several months after my delivery Rick sent me the 2008 Corvette sales brochure. Thanks Rick, you are a class act.

I bought my '07 via Rick and did the R8C Museum Delivery. Easiest purchase that I ever did. Michelle has called me twice since my delivery to make sure I was still happy and I am!

I will definitely have to contact Rick when I'm ready to buy my Vette. I will probably see what the local dealer has to offer first (I have to test drive anyways). Where is Rick located and I take it his contact number is somewhere on this site?

After reading all of the great things about Rick I figured I couldn't just sit by and read without posting another "That a boy Rick"! I purchased an 08 from Rick back in mid December. This was my first internet car purchase and was skeptical to say the least. Not only does he give you a no haggling quote in about 30 seconds but he returns all of your phone calls. An experience that I am not quite use. My car has not been built yet but it has a TPW of 1/14, I'm sure nothing will change on my dealings from here on out with Rick. He is top notch and honest.
And just as important.......................his price couldn't be touch within 3 to 4 thousand dollars by any dealership in Northern California!
