Amazing! Elkland Chevy - Scott Mays
I just got home from buying my first new Corvette. I have bought a LOT of cars over the years but this has been the BEST experience EVER! Hats off to Elkland Chevrolet and Scott Mays! I was in and out in about 1/2 hour after having made the deal over the phone from out of state. When calling in for making the deal it took about 10 minutes - no back and forth - just straight up and the best possible deal made right then. I told them the deals I was finding on line and what I wanted to do and that is all it took. NO pressure sales. NO taking my money and trying to leverage me. NO smoke and mirrors. NO disappointments. Very refreshing! Worth the drive too - beautiful countryside to drive a new Vette home through. They have several left on the lot ready to go as of today.... Just wanted to let ya'll know if you are looking - NOW is the time!

Here is the photo provided by the dealership of what is now MY car. Just a basic 1LT A8 with few options - BUT it is almost exactly what I wanted without the wait and a great price

I have purchased Z06 1/4 scoops, ACS front splash guards, OEM rear splash guards, ABS black side skirts, white Z51 OEM rear spoiler, catch can and am working on a carbon flash hood stinger sticker. I will need guidence on installing ALL of this. Thanks all

Bought a new Grand Sport from Scott Tubbs at Elkland in April. Done by phone from Florida. Very easy transaction with Mr Tubbs and Mr Walters, the owner. They were both very helpful. Beautiful car. Love it!.

Bryan, first of all, welcome to Corvette Forum! Second, congrats on your new ride. Third, "the natives" get restless if you post about a new Corvette purchase and you don't post pictures....you'll learn!!!!
I'm sure you didn't post pictures yet because you're too busy driving your new Corvette.

Congratulations, she is a beauty. And remember, there's nothing basic about the 1LT. It's the same as any other Vette out there without the luxuries inside. Enjoy, and don't forget to wave.

Thanks all! I am still getting used to it. Too scared to get on it just yet - need to learn how to control a car like this. I found myself going 45 in 55 zones thinking I was going much faster. I did get on it a bit getting on the interstate - 20 to 70 is out of this world - then I go a bit below the speed limit - AND this is just the base 455hp automatic. I can only wonder what a Z06 is like.... I am busy buying everything for it now. Got carbon flash decals for hood and roof coming, Z06 quarter panel scoops, Z51 spoiler, ACS front mud guards, GM rear mud guards, side skirts, PCV catch can, white alloy wheel protectors, etc... I gotta dress it up you know... I am still trying to figure out how to store more than 5 FM radio presets - anybody know?
