Stingray Chevrolet (FL) MSRP ONLY w/ $99 Dealer Fee. *** THIS IS A MUST READ ***

[jm88]

I picked up my RJT 2SS RS Auto today... and rather than post pics of an RJT Camaro (which most of us have seen). I've decided to focus on Stingray Chevrolet of Plant City, FL the sister dealer to Classic Chevrolet in TX.

The part that I know you're interested in... YES, they are an MSRP ONLY Dealer and they stick to this policy. BUT... it gets better, the dealer fee (Doc / Prep) is ONLY $99 !!! Now, on to the review:

I've been dealing primarily with the Inventory Manager himself (the guy that orders and tracks the Camaro's) - His name is Matthew D. and YES, he does keep you posted on order updates and tracking. But more than that he is a genuinely nice guy and it was a pleasure working with him. Give him a call if you're looking for a car (not just Camaro's). BTW, Matthew I still owe you lunch !



From the moment I walked into the dealership today I was greeted by friendly courteous people. Salesmen were nice even though I wasn't their customer. Techs were welcoming into the prep area and NOBODY had any kind of attitude, a very happy relaxed atmosphere.

I was then greeted by the Owner himself, Mr. Steve Hurley and his son (Matt - the in house Corvette specialist). Mr. Hurley is a car guy, he hung out with me talked Camaro's and expressed he'd rather be talking cars then be stuck in his office. He is truly not what I've come to expect in a Dealer Principle. I've bought (New) BMW, Porsche, Lexus, Hummer etc. etc. and I've NEVER met an owner like Steve - he is first class all the way.



I was made to feel like i was visiting with friends and truly felt welcome. But... it gets better... The reason why I owe Matthew D Lunch is because while we had sat down to eat... Mr. Hurley and his son Matt walked into the same restaurant, sat down and waved. Five minutes later the waitress comes over and says "your lunch has been taken care of by that gentleman" !

When was the last time the owner of your local Chevy dealer sold you your Camaro (MSRP) charged you ONLY $99 for doc / prep AND bought you lunch ???

Stingray is HEAVY into Corvettes (see photos) and I'm sure there are great Corvette deals to be had. So... what are you waiting for ? Call Matthew D (Inventory Manager) or Matt H (Corvette Specialist and Owners Son) and order your car. Stop beating your head against the wall... They earned my business, respect and I'm now a lifetime customer.

It's not often you see "MSRP" and "Florida" in the same sentence around here. Congrats on finding a good dealer!

Call and ask Matthew D , I really don't know... I just picked up my Camaro today.

BTW, Forgot to mention one inportant person - Scott L (Used Car Asst. Manager) ALSO
took very good care of me on my trade !

IN Finance I used Chaun B who does NOT add warranty's or extras !!! Unless you ask for them.

Stingray is the place to order your Camaro in Florida !

The Z06 is such a badass car...I really need one to match my Camaro.

I was thinking the same thing!

Impressive, I thought I was getting a good deal at MSRP but my dealer is getting over twice that fee and I am just hopeing for a full tank of gas.

Some dealer fees in Florida are $599... you can't argue with a $500 savings !

WOW! This is a great story. Too bad this seems to be the exception rather than the rule.
I bet they have a loyal following - the way a business should be run.
Good for them (and you).
Great story about the lunch - need to find out what planet they came from...!
