I bought my '15 Z51 from them when new exactly 5 years ago. At the time, the dealer was changing ownership and the original owner was trying to buy the business back from his partner that ran it into the ground. He completed that. My experience with them at the time was horrible. Refer to this: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...post1599434638
The new owner did try to make thing right for me after the sale. I cannot attest to how they are these days. But I recommend you try Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City instead. Or better still, just use one of the Forum vendors who seem to give the best deals and the best no hassle sales.

Good ole bomnin!! Business as usual. BUT, my Bomnin salesman was from Brazil, i didn't speak Portugueses, he didn't speak englishes, no deal. That was 3 years ago, no conanvirus brazilians giving all the world leaders free corona virus exposure when they visited them with their President then like they did now.

Bolsonaro himself was tested for the coronavirus after several of his closest aides fell ill with covid-19 following a dinner and reception that Trump held, in early March, at Mar-a-Lago. In all, twenty-four members of Bolsonaro’s entourage have tested positive for covid-19 since returning to Brazil. Bolsonaro says that he tested negative, twice, but he has refused to reveal the test results, leading to widespread speculation that he also contracted the virus. (As a consequence of the Brazilian hullabaloo, Trump was also tested, but found to be negative. Less fortunate was Francis Suarez, the mayor of Miami, who met with Bolsonaro’s delegation, and tested positive, but has now recovered and is out of quarantine.)

OP, you might want to state where you are as Bomnin has two locations, several hundred miles apart. The original is located in Florida and they purchased another dealership in Virginia.

Miami.
They were a bit difficult to deal with over the phone. I also dealt with a forum vendor and they were great. Bomnin had a car that was closer to what I was looking for though. Things to think about.
BTW, Bomnin also has a 2017 3LT Z51 for sale as new. Somewhat strange I thought.

For what it's worth...
The Kendall location on US1 has an amazing Corvette Mechanic - Stan. Pretty much all he works on are Corvettes. I can tell you that he knows these cars very well (all years) and I've had nothing but fantastic results from him.
