Default Stingray Chevrolet

I sold my 2005 Mag Red Coupe in Feb. and have been on the prowl for a couple of months for a "new to me" 2010 to 2012 MN6 Coupe. I found one online and went to Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City, Florida (Forum Vendor) to take a look at it. I ended up leaving with a BRAND NEW 2012 Blade Silver Metallic GS Coupe 1LT MN6!

I cannot express in words what a wonderful experience it was working with Tellis- my Sales Manager, and Rob- my Financial Manager. They worked a deal for me (even with my somewhat less than stellar credit) and I drove home with a car that I never thought I would be able to afford. Needless to say, I'm smiling from ear to ear!!! I would recommend Stingray and these guys to anyone- they are THE BEST!

Stingray is part of the Classic Auto Group of TX Hdq's are in Grapevine, TX where I just bought my new C6. They own a number of dealerships scattered around the USA. The Durant family has been in the business for years. They are related by blood to the Durant of Chevrolet fame. What I like is that Hagen, the grandson (his dad also), is very down to earth and likes to mingle with the customers in the waiting lounge. He is a blue jean and cowboy boots kind of young man rather than being a stuffed shirt. They will gladly transport in a car from any of their other Chevrolet stores that a local buyer wants.

Got to agree with you 110%. Traded in my 2011 coupe for a 2013 GS, Tellis was my sales mgr and Rob was my Finance mgr. my credit was so so and got me 2.9%. Fantastic dealer and their service is super, Justin is a great service mgr. i travel about 100 miles each way to go to Stingray. Quick question on your new GS compared to the coupe you traded in, do you find that the drivers seat on the GS has less of a recline then your coupe, seems more upright.

I really haven't noticed a difference but I just picked it up yesterday! I'm still getting it adjusted. I do kinda miss the telescoping steering wheel (both previous 2005 coupes) BUT I LOVE the looks of the car and the upgraded interior!

I didn't have the same luck as you. I inquired about a C6 ZO6 and they never emailed me back, think I tried three times. Couple months later I decide to try one more time on a 2013 GS. This time I pm'd them on here hoping for better luck. They replied back stating they would soon reply back with a quote, nothing. Now I have decided to just keep my Vette since it's my first one and I hope I never to have to sell it.

Got my '11 GS from Stingray Chevrolet also. Did the whole thing over the phone and email. Got the price I wanted and great customer service - can't ask for much more. I did a dealer trade and they were so unhappy with how dirty it was when it got to Plant City they wouldn't even let me see it until they did the whole wash, claybar, wax, buff thing. Good store.

Congratulations on your new Vette!
