Default Your take on Comier Chevy

Thinking of buying a new Vette from them have you done business with this Long Beach dealership?

I tried them and they were ok but you will find better prices elsewhere. Have you tried some of the vendors here ?

There is one in SF called Boardwalk ..Its worth the drive trust me..

I agree with 04_Z06_CE.
My brother and I drove up there last weekend and picked up a new Grand Sport. Well worth the drive. Talk to Tim. Boardwalk Chevrolet is in Redwood City not S.F.

I purchased my 2006 C6 Coupe at Cormier through their internet department. It was a competitive price with very good price for my Honda Accord trade-in.

I have purchasee 10 Vettes new from various So Cal dealers including Cormier. Best buying experience and lowest price that I have gotten is from Silverstar Chevy in the Thousand Oaks auto mall. Go see the sales manager Mike Anderson and tell him Ron from Red Line Corvettes referred you. Got my GS from him.

I would have to dis agree with this statement.

Iam not questioning your good deal , but they are as expensive as it gets. I live 2 minutes away and have tried them on 2 different cars the past 1 year and they are consistently more expensive.

Bottom line is that no one can you give you 10k discounts like these vendors can.
Heck there is a 2011 Z07 that Boardwalk is advertising right now , its a 98k car being advertised at 78k . Do you think Silver star would even come close to that ? lol Not even close

I got my '08 from Tim @ Boardwalk as well. He'll get first crack at selling me a C7, too!

Default Not cormier

I have a friend that wanted the 2006 Z06 so bad when it first came out that he made his purchase from Cormier. Three-Way Chevrolet in Bakersfield sent him there and he paid $10,000 bump over sticker. He paid 78,000 for a car that stickered at 68,000. That's his dumb *** fault, but Cormier was taking advantage of the Southern CA market. I purchased my car in Montana rather than paying inflated prices. I have to say that I recently discovered Boardwalk and Tim seems to have the best prices I have seen. I plan on going there for my next purchase. Maybe a C7.

Cormier does have a decent inventory of Corvettes. (The last time I was there, they had 12 ZR1's in every color that GM paints 'em.) I know of no other dealership that has that many cars. Yeah, they've got Z06's, GS's & verts too. They do seem proud of their prices though.

They support The Vett~Sett Club.

Since they have a Corvette hunging from a crane for all to see from the 405, they offer great target practice for the "drive-by" crowd...

I had a good experience with Cormier service department for a fuel tank problem that GM did not want to officially label a recall so they would not be stuck fixing it if there were no symptoms.

While there I was impressed with their inventory and spoke at length with their salesman who specialized in Corvettes. I'll bet if you do your homework and get distant quotes, they will work very hard to be competitive. Not like there's a line of people waiting to buy them today.

I find that when buying a new car fleet sales is where you want to start no matter what dealership you want to buy from. The fleet manager always my guy for the best deal no pressure just in and out with my new car.

I bought a Vette from Cormier, but passed the second time around...no consideration to retain customers. As noted in previous posts, there are lot's of choices out there.
