My 2nd vette
Hello, all my corvette brothers.....this is my first post....I'm been stalking the site trying to gather info...and info I find....if I would have found this site before ordering my corvette c7, all of the headache I would have avoided...to me this site give me ten times the info Chevy could ever give me.....
Here my story....I brought a C6 five years ago, saw the car on the lot , and wrote the deal up....that easy....so softer gearing about the new C7 coming out, I assumed the same thing....went to the dealership and inquire about the C7, to catch me off guard , the sale person had no knowledge about the c7( I should have left then)....not doing my research I went ahead and order a c7 z51 ,1lt, PE...BLACK ON BLACK...by the way the sale person didn't know about any of these options....I then left a deposit and was told 4 week to 6 week...that was in August....now I don't even have a TPW date....I understand that I should have fine my homework, but shouldn't GM educate their sales team....Im sure there are tons of peeps like me....
When I went to the Porsche dealership, the info was excellent, and the sale person was totally knowledgable about their products....if GM want to lure prospect buyers away they have to train their sale team, maybe like Porsche....maybe have dealership only sell vette like Porsche does....

While I had my Corvette serviced I went into the showroom to look at the C7. Not one salesperson approached me. They all stayed in their little cubicles drinking their coffee or eating their donuts.
