Default Where do I get my new C6 Serviced - Central NJ

Hello all. Relatively new to the site, my C6 is less than a month old. I got it at Kerbeck. I did a search in this section, but came up empty. I'm looking for a trustworthy / reliable local shop where I can bring the car for service, even just routine oil changes & stuff. Usually I do that myself, but it's not always convenient. I live in the Hamilton / Princeton / Trenton area. I know the Corvette can require a knowledgable tech to work on it. Plus, we all don't want just some hack working on it, right? Can anyone make some suggestions? I appreciate it!

Had my Z in there last month. Tommy is top notch, walked me around the car and gave me a tour of his work while it was on the lift.

Tommy is the only dealership tech I would go to. Do you have any plans for the car or are you keeping it stock? ECS for mods if you get bit by the bug.

Thanks for all the responses! For now the car is staying stock. I bought the M2W for the exhaust (glad I did!), but mostly I just want to dress it up a bit; leather console cover with crossed flags, mats with the same, simple stuff. I have a Silverado SS that has some bolt on mods. For now, that will continue to be my vehicle for tinkering. I'm going to try to make it up to Paramus on Sunday if the weather is nice for my first Corvette get together. Hope to see some of you there!

I should be up at the meet Sunday as well. Wondering if anyone can help me diagnose my "rough idle" or maybe confirm if it is normal on this car.

You just got the car right? If it is not too long ago, bring it back where you got it if it was a dealer. It should still be under warranty, so you could have it diagnosed at a dealer.
If it has no warranty, bring it to one of the forum sponsored tuners.I don't know where you live, but no matter where you are, there is a tuner near who could do better than someone at a car show.

I bought my 09 C6 at Royal Chevrolet in Bridgewater NJ and I have been a customer for 20 years and I have not yet taken my C6 back for anything but I have seen many various year Vette's there for service and I have had my other vehicles there for service and they are top notch in my opinion.

just got back from DeFelice for the rear diff TSB and a transmission software update, and one word- AWESOME. They are a nicest people that I have ever dealt with in terms of dealers. Tommy is great, took care of the C6 and really knows his stuff and he's a really nice guy. With great places like this I am really sad that GM as a whole is in such bad shape. I plan to get all my work done there from now on, even though oil changes can be done by myself, I would not mind supporting the local economy out there. Thanks Tommy, and DeFelice!!
