New 2015 C7 Z07 Owner
Hi everyone,
It's been a long long road - but I managed to find exactly the car I wanted. I went back and forth between the C6 ZR1 (which I still love) and the C7 Z06/Z07. The heating issues kept me locked on the ZR1 until this November when GM at SEMA released their secondary rad for manual cars (which this is). I then looked for the best deal for either car.
Well - I found it at Wallace Chevrolet (and every other GM product Dealership).
To say it was a fantastic experience is an understatement. Bob Wallace personally worked with Mel my Salesperson and made me feel right at home from the moment I called. It turned out his Brother, Bill who is also an Owner is a (very) serious gearhead and we know the same people and have raced in the same tracks for years. After that it was obvious that this was the perfect Dealership for me to be at. The service and people were professional and super friendly - and this is key - even before I showed up to buy the car.
As we all know, Canadian cars are extremely hard to find - 48 for 2015 if I remember correctly - so this car's life in the showroom was limited. Bob didn't have to do much for me - but - I will simply say - he did. I felt fantastic with the deal I got and he did it with a smile. They are also so well connected into the Corvette and car enthusiast community that they were able to open that world up to me - which I very much look forward to this coming season!
I will not bad mouth other GM Dealerships I visited (and there were a few) - this is too great a day for me and I am so very grateful to be able to finally land this car.
Just know that if you need a great Dealership - for any car - Wallace Chevrolet is the place to go!
Thank-you Bob, Mel and Bill!

Thanks Bob - I'm really happy with the colour combination! The light blade silver plus the darker grey accents combined with black works for me.
The red calipers help the little red accents pop as well.
In Canada GM supra-limited allocations - only 48 for the entire country for 2015 - so it was a tough find for me.
It has 3000 miles on it - and was the dealers car - who's a major gear head so I feel I got it young enough

We were both very lucky.
