Museum Delivery by silvergoat

I am considering ordering a 2008 and was wondering about the museum delivery oprion.
1) is it worth it?
2) If I am picking up the car at the factory why then do I also have to pay for the destination charges? Isn't the plant across the street from the museum?

The dealer told me you still have to pay the destination charge even if you pick the car up at the factory. It has something to do with the union I was told.

It might also have something to do with the uniform commercial code (under the FTC?). Delivery charges were standardized nationwide at least a decade ago. That's why a guy who buys a Chevy in Hawaii pays within about $50 of what a guy in Kentucky would pay.
 
But I'm sure the truckers' unions had a say in the matter as well.

I have found a 07 C6 car with the Lt3 package, both tops , chrome wheels and onstar with the auto trans. The car is red with dark gray interior and 7300 miles on it. They want $44000.00 for it and I have driven the car and it is just like new. What do you think?

Well – I bought a similarly equipped 2007 last Fall: 3LT, MX0 \ A6, CC3 & Monterey Red metallic paint. List: $52,690.
 
I negotiated $5K off that price = $47,690.
 
I have recently seen various dealers advertising $7 – 8K off remaining new 2007s.
 
I see $44K as rather high for a 2007 3LT used, with mileage that many C6s don’t see in ** TWO ** years. . .
 
I think you could do better – or for $1 or $2K more you could buy a new 2007 – if you can find one with the equipment & color that you want.
 
There are still many 2007 Coupes on dealer lots across the country . . .
 
Good luck!
- Ray
Happy with my deal – and the 12,000 miles driven since then . . .

So, based on Ray's input, you just have to get them down to
$41k or so and you have a great deal.

Got the dealer down and traded my C5 for the C6 and I have to tell you there is alot more difference in the two cars than I thought there would be but it is a good difference. Thanks for all the info.

I wish there was a way to trade 2 for 1. I have a 2006 Toyota and a 1991 Camaro and the cash difference. The problem is the Camaro has a ton of go fast goddies $$ in it and I'd like to recoup at least a portion of that. Plus I've looked at every publication I can find and nobody has a Corvette for sale within 150 miles of here thus eliminating doing the 2 trade thing. I hate advertising and selling cars so I guess I'll just keep hoping somebody sees my nice clean cars and makes me an off I can't refuse. Dave

Northeast Corvette Dealers by jjkost
Aug 08, 2007 (5:13 pm)

I am looking to purchase a new 2008 Corvette. Does anyone have any recommendations for Chevy dealers in the Northeast that give "good" deals on Corvettes and also good service departments? I am aware of Kerbeck. I am located just west of Boston but am willing to travel for a good deal.
I appreciate your responses.
Thank you,
Jim
