Buyer of this car here
Hey everyone, I'm the one who bought this car.
My experience buying from silverja was truly outstanding. I'm based in CA and the car was in PA so I had no easy way of seeing it in person before buying and on top of that I'm a new member of this forum and new to Corvette's in general.
Silverja called me and we talked for a while about the car and being my first Corvette, he talked me through everything that I needed to know and keep an eye out for. I had done a lot of reading up on the C4's beforehand which helped as well. We closed the deal on Tuesday and by Wednesday afternoon the car was on a truck to CA. I took delivery of the car and I can say that it exceeded expectations in every way. It's in great condition, runs perfectly, passed smog in CA and is now fully registered without any issues whatsoever.
Super smooth process, great communication from Silverja at every step of the way. I had a lot of questions during the process and he always replied within a few minutes. For a first time Corvette buyer and especially buying from the other side of the country, that was very reassuring. This is exactly what communities like this are for and I'm grateful that I found the car I was looking for and a seller that was so helpful along the way.
Now, I'm off to take the car for a drive..
