Reply To: Feeling not valued as a customer

I understand exactly. I purchased a 2015 Z06 on a tuedday. My salesman heard my bank tell me the money was there. My salesman and sales manager both talked to my bank and knew the money was there. In friday afternoon 40 minutes from taking delivery i was finally able to even get in my new vette. I drove it 3 miles..my salesman said he never even drove one even though he stated he was an expert in corvvette, yea right. I being a good guy let him drive it back the 3 miles where he promptly stomped the gas to over 120mph not once but twice and in between he stomped the brakes. So much gor proper breakin. He passed 2 troopers at 120mph just befor the driveway. I figured he would get a ticket, nope. 40 minutes later i pulled out. After signing more paperwork. I shifted to 2d, went to shift to 3d and noticed i was already up to 70mph. I imediatly let off the gas but a trooper already had me at 72 he says. Not 15 seconds in my brand new Z06. He followed me for 5 miles while i did 1mph under the 45mph speed limit. When asked what i thouht i was doing i explained i just took delivery and i wasnt used to the peddle yet. I got a ficket. Aftrr over 50 years of not having any tickets, not even a break. I was speeding and pleaded guilty but the district attorney and judge both agreed that with my good driving record and after reading the circumstances the wrote me for a parking ticket. Good honest people. The kanagr for repairs at the dealership told me the troopers probablt thought i was the one doing 120 and got me for speeding. Lesson one DO NOT EVER LET ANYONE DRIVE YOUR NEW CAR, EXCEOT GOR A BEST FREIND AND ESPECIALLY NOT YOUR SALESMAN. anyway i have 2204 miles on Kate and even at speed limit, one hell of a car.
