Default Buying a C7

Hi All,
Finally have my C5 sold and ready for a C7. I'm in California. I've been shopping around and found the best prices at MacMulkin Chevrolet in NH. Anyone have any experience with them?
Thanks!!

Top notch, can't go wrong. Tommy Jr and the others are great with a great reputation here.

Have you been in the C7 Dealer Inventory Forum yet?

Awesome. Yes, been looking around but really finding the best pricing at MacMulkin...even with shipping! But you know what they say...if it sounds too good to be true...
Good to know they have a good rep. Thanks!

Picked up my Arctic White base Stingray from MacMulkin this past Saturday. Car was immaculate and ready to go on time. Automotive Excellence did Expel package for me. Mark, Kevin and Rob were great to work with and Rick from Automotive Excellence took great care with the paint protection job. Great experience. Recommend them.

Have bought 3 Vettes and a Camaro from MacMulkin. Best car buying experience every time. You can't go wrong with them.

I ordered a stingray through MacMulkin that was built last week and is now on its way to San Diego. Prices are very good and the salespeople are straightforward. Know, though, that it is expected to take about a month to get to So Cal after it leaves Bowling Green. This is not MacMulkin's fault -- it just takes a long time to get the car to your courtesy dealer. (The courtesy dealer was arranged by MacMulkin, as well, by the way.)

Got mine from them last spring 11% off msrp plus my GM dollars. Worked out well and about as stress free as I could imagine. Ordered middle of Feb. Did a $200 courtesy delivery on April 2nd.

Hands down the absolute best dealer experience anywhere ! Professional and honest in every respect. Talk to the rest, but buy from the best ! MacMulkin #1 in price, and second to none in customer satisfaction. Bought my 2016 from them and I live in Florida.

I got my car from MacMulkin in December. They are excellent to deal with and I recommend using them. I am sure that other forum dealers are also very good also.

Bought mine there 2 years ago, getting a discount on an order when such a thing was almost unheard of.

Great to work with. Bought mine from their stock in December when they had 12% off MSRP on 2LTs. Sent a deposit to hold the car, then flew up to pick it up a few days later. They do a courtesy pickup from Boston. An hour after arriving at MacMulkin, I was on the road with my new prize.

December customer and first time buyer as well. You will have a great experience.

If you have the time...drive it home! That would be the trip of a lifetime!

Depending on how your gonna ship or take delivery...
There is Mike from Criswell and Rick Conti. I hear nothing but great things from all forum vendors.... so sad we can't get these cars shipped up here to Canada... or we'd be buying from them too.
