I got the best price from Tommy Jr. at MacMulkin. Excellent customer service and communication throughout the order process, too!

I recommend MacMulkin. Tommy Jr. at MacMulkin beat the largest Corvette dealer in the country by about $2,000.

I literally just got home 2 hours ago from picking up my 2012 Centennial Z06 from MacMulkin. Drove home 300 miles. Call some dealers and see for yourself. I priced Kerbeck...40 minutes from my house.... wouldn't budge on price or on their "EXTRA" document fee's and other fee's.

I plan on doing a large thread on my MacMulkin experience, but Tommy Jr. is a true gentleman and a sincere Corvette enthusiast. He will give you the best price with NO add on fee's and will be available by cell/text/E-mail when you have a question. I only wish I thought of him when I got my wife her 2011 Escalade a few weeks ago. Now I know that he is a Chevy/Cadillac dealer.

I travelled 9,000 miles from Bacolod City, Philippines to MacMulkin Chevrolet to buy a 2011 GS from him.

Got a good deal ... All transactions were done via email and a phone call

Not fair! I made my deal from Al Udeid AB while deployed! Do I get credit for that distance?

Are you going to order one, then I would go with the best price and get courtesy delivery. If you want one from dealer inventory then you should check out Tim Boone in the Bay Area. If you buy from the others inventory then you need to include transportation. I've purchased 2 vettes from Tim.

Its not just the price from the selling dealer. You need to take into consideration where the dealer is at and what are the other costs like transportation and travel expenses. I remember several years ago an incident. I am from Ia and bought a car while in Az for the winter. The big Az dealer was totally wrong on how taxes work when you are an out of state buyer. So, one other point is to check with the DOT where you reside and will register the car as to what will fly or wont fly in your state. Just my 2 cents worth.

Taxes are important ... I was an out of state buyer when I bought my car from MacMulkin. They are in New Hampshire, and I live in Florida.

New Hampshire don't have taxes on new auto purchases, so they just gave me a free 20 day new Hampshire Temp Plate and sent me on my way.

Of course, when i got to good ol' Florida, I had to register the car and pay the 6% state tax in order to get my plates and title.

Oh well ...

Same in NY, you just pay sales tax here. I wouldn't buy from out of state if they tax you, then you have to pay your own state's taxes.
Tommy is 3 hrs away so transportation is not an issue.
