Here's just one of the links about MacMulkin 'pricing' : https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...e-5k-over.html
Not this again. MacMulkin never posted that they were ricing new ZO6s at $5k over the MSRP. Rather, they started an ordering list and those that paid $5k were put at the top of the list. Within a few days, they realized that they had made a mistake and they removed the lists.

They owned up to their mistake and they made it right for everyone who felt they had been had. MacMulkin is a first rate organization and they always put customers first.

Bought my 1st Corvette from them in 2009 off the floor and no fuss no BS and Great Price.
This time buying a 2016 I went up and checked out what they had.
We sat down put all the numbers down and I went home to decide which Vette I wanted and checked out their website again and found a different Vette I wanted.
Called them back from home, told them which one I wanted and turned out that particular car was on the truck from Blowing Green and would arrive in a couple days.
I also opted to have them get the Xpel installed and they said fine, we'll have the car ready for you in 3 days.
Did the Credit App online and went back 3 days later with my Trade in, Signed papers and drove off.
It helps that I'm just over the border in MA but they also did my Registration for me even though they're in NH.
Emailed the Registration to me, I printed it out and drove off to get my Inspection Sticker.

I had just the opposite happen to me at Criswell Chevrolet in Gathersburg,me.Didn't want to talk discounts.
I called Kerbeck asked them about supplier discounts and got over $5,000
Off MSRP.I believe some salesman are so busy they lose A sale and don't even know it.

Hmmm? Did you talk to Mike Furman?
I had no issues and I'm very happy with my Criswell experience.

Dave at Kerbeck gave me a ridiculous killer deal. Better than anyone else. Couldn't be more pleased. This is my second purchase from them and my son bought one previously there too. I had them courtesy deliver it to a local dealer too !!!!!

This was over 20 months ago.I talked to A salesman.I didn't get A name
They said they didn't give supplier discounts so that was the end of that.

After talking to several dealers, I ordered a Z06 from Kerbeck last week. They have been straight shooters so far and easy to deal with.

Here's the email they sent out to people on their waiting list:

Right now I have over 250 customers waiting and I am only getting 175 Z06 allocated. So we are creating a wait list based on the following criteria:

Previous Customers willing to pay 5K over MSRP
Non Previous Customers willing to pay 5K over MSRP
Previous Customers waiting for MSRP previous
Non Previous Customers waiting for MSRP

Once we get all that sorted out we will begin prioritizing the orders.

Delivery times could vary depending on options you choose and factory availability of parts. First Z06 deliveries are expected in late December 2014 or early Jan 2015.

Which category would you like me to put you in?

I'm guessing you missed the fact that they withdrew this statement within a few days. Have you ever made a mistake and then realized it was a mistake? Everyone can shop anywhere they like, most tend to shop at places where they feel they get a good deal and are treated fair.

This started as a well intentioned thread, but it has turned into somewhat of a supporting vendor bashing thread. The Transactions Feedback section is available on the forum for a reason (actually several reasons).
