Default West Coast Corvette



Well heres the story.

In getting prepared for WSIR tomorrow I changed the tranny fluid, diff, power steering, clutch etc etc. The last thing to do was the brake flush by the dealer as I did not have the gm tool for a complete flush.

Anyways I drop it off to the dealer along with my dot 4 fluid. I also asked them to check the pads/rotors but did not think I would need them as the dealer I bought the car from SAID the brakes/pad/rotors were changed in their service when the car got traded in.

Anyways the dealer calls me and says I need to get the rotors resurfaced all the way around $400/ And new pads all the way around approx $800

At this point im at work and its 2:30 PM and I thought oh ****. I called west coast corvette and JT answered my call. They ended up quoting me about 50% less than the dealer however they were due to close in 2 1/2 hours and I still needed to get the car from the dealer. I told them about my situation and the urgency of the matter. After a brief hold JT came back on the phone and said they can accomodate me. 45 minutes lates the car was on a lift and being worked on just until their closing time. While waiting around I decided to buy some LLOYDs matts and a Jake racing hat to show some appreciation ! If you guys have not checked the place out, go do it. They have all year vettes sitting around the showroom for sale and just about EVERY peformance part you could ever want for our cars.

Thanks so much to West Coast Corvette, without your prompt assistance I might have been out a track day or have to spend an exhorbitant amount of money at the dealer. 2 1/2 hours later im back at work and ready for tomorrow. I am glad I donated to Amy's Memorial Fund yesterday even though I have never delt with WCC, good things tend to come around !



Cliffs : Was in a bind, would have missed track day. West coast corvette saved the day !

Thank You WCC !

I will be back soon for some mods !

I've been buying from them for over 10 years, and they have always treated me the same way.

Bought a car cover from them recently. They checked the package and realized it was the wrong cover. Attempted to give me a deal on a better cover, however, I chose to order the one I wanted through them. Took a week longer than expected and they were extremely apologetic.

Bottom Line - They are a great group of people and I will continue to shop through them.

Since I bought my new Vette 3 years ago, John, JT and all the guys at WCC have done all my maintenance, mods that I can’t do myself, and have always done outstanding work. Thanks all. I will continue to always ask you first for help, assistenece, and/or questions regarding my ride.

I bought my first Corvette from WCC and all of the mods from them too. Since I got my new C6 over a year ago, WCC is still supplying me with all of the mods and goodies for my new Vette too. I have bought so much stuff from WCC that I'm almost a Platinum buyer now and their discounts are great too!!!
