New resident to Dallas -- recommend dealers & performance shop
Hi all, I'm in the process of moving to Plano from Chicago next month. I've been really happy with Stasek Chevrolet here in the Chicago suburbs (#1 Corvette dealer in the Chicago area) since they had two dedicated Corvette techs and all of the special equipment/tools. Very reasonable people who got to know me and the car, never played games, and were always helpful.
Can someone recommend dealers in the Dallas area that are well-respected for Corvette knowledge? And perhaps the service tech(s) to ask for at those? I was looking at the top dealers and saw these two:
-Classic Chevrolet (Grapevine)
-Stonebriar Chevrolet (Frisco)
I was also pretty spoiled in Chicago because I had either Fall-Line Motorsports or Blackdog Speed Shop work on my car for non-warranty stuff like my harness bar, short shifter, etc. Who are the top-notch speed shops in the Dallas area? I'm fine driving a little ways and spending more if it means I'll get knowledgeable and careful techs. It looks like LG Motorsports is the top dog around there but I always like to have options.
Thanks in advance and look forward to meeting some of you!

I'll help you out brother. We here in Texas do not generally use the steallership.
If you need work done, I would recommend 21ST Century Muscle cars in Addison. I just had them tweek my exhaust and give me a tune for my new headers. They do stealer work and they are a forum sponsor. Ask for Matt.
PS put down 412 rwhp on my 08 base model

I would recommend to just use the dealerships to handle any of your recall work if any. Hopefully you will not need any warranty work but again that would be my only use for them. Would be helpful if you updated your profile to show what year and model you currently own. Some might chime in on suggested items of interest. Good Luck and welcome to Texas.

Another vote here for 21st Century Muscle Car. I have been working with Matt for 4 years. He has incrementally built my c6Z into a NA beast! I would not take my car anywhere else.

For power adders, tuning etc... L&L Perf in Lewisville. Since you are going to Plano I would suggest Reliable Chevrolet in Richardson. I am actually running a Black Dog hood on my C6Z.. Good guys to deal with. and FYI... LG is "old news".... 80% of their business is done online.
Most of their loyal group has moved on to other shops... I'll not get into why.
