Despite a nationwide downturn in new car sales, some dealers are doing remarkably well. Such is the case for a pair of Chevrolet dealers in Florida, which managed to grab the number-one and number-two sales positions of all 3,049 Chevy dealers in the U.S.
According to a recent report from Corvette Blogger, the top two best-performing Chevrolet dealers of 2020 thus far are Bomnin Chevrolet Dadeland at the number-one spot, and Bomnin Chevrolet West Kendall in the number-two spot. The two dealers are part of a larger dealer group located in South Florida, and managed to outsell every other Chevrolet dealership in the country for Q1 of 2020. What’s more, the dealership group has three spots in the list of top 10 Corvette dealers in the country, as based on vehicle sales in the 2019 calendar year.
Critically, Bomnin Chevrolet Dadeland and Bomnin Chevrolet West Kendall are located just a few miles apart, which makes the Q1 sales results all the more noteworthy. According to Arnaldo Bomnin, it’s unique to have two dealers owned by the same person and located so close to one another grab the top two sales spots.
“It’s also unique because Miami has been known as an import market over the past two decades,” Bomnin said, “but there’s no question that American-made Chevrolets are proving to be popular again among our diverse community.”
Incredibly, the two South Florida Chevrolet dealers are just a few percent off last year’s new car sales numbers, despite a decline in new car sales nationwide over the last two months.
Bomnin says that the most popular models for his dealers are the Chevrolet Corvette and various Chevrolet truck models.
According to the dealership website, the Bomnin Chevrolet dealers currently have four 2020 Corvettes available, including three 3LT Stingray Coupes, and one 2LT Stingray Coupe. The Chevrolet dealers also have a few 2019 Chevrolet Corvettes on the lot as well.

Wow, top ranked dealer with only a $10k markup on each 2020 Corvette. Top ranked in sales but not in being fair towards customers (even if they are taking advantage of “supply and demand”). And before people defend this, Apple has tons of demand every year for each new iPhone but they don’t charge over MSRP like this.
How is not fair? Are they forcing you to buy from them? Are they the only Chevy dealer in the country? Perhaps they’re sitting on several 2020s because they are charging a mark-up and intelligent consumers are electing to shop elsewhere or wait. Perhaps you could do the same? It is a perfect example of supply & demand.
Bob agreed , GM needs you back !!!
GM doesn’t need Lutz back. He’s been wrong on many issues including relentless bashing of Tesla. Look where they are now, the Apple of the car industry.
