Best experience I have ever had!

I’ve bought several new cars over the my years of driving and by far this was the best experience I have ever had! I actually enjoyed the entire experience and did not feel I was pressured into making a deal.

Everything was great

From the purchase price, trade in and delivery, everything was great. When we picked up our Z06 it was all perfectly detailed and the paperwork went fast.

Patient and positive

I made several changes and the sales rep was very patient and positive with me. He gave me all the info I asked for and didn’t play games like I experienced with a few other dealers.

The best

The Corvette team of Van Bortel who I worked with to purchase my 2019 Corvette were the best. I have been taken care by a team of true pros!

Process so easy

We did most of the conversation via the Corvette Forum. Matt had a great price but it was simply out of my reach. I countered an offer. Instead of saying no or making another counter offer, he showed me how I can get that deal! The rest was history. That’s what separated Matt from other salesmen. Our conversation started with me being interested in a used Z51 they had in stock. Then I went from buying that to buying a new GS! I traded two my cars. I drove 7 hours with car one the first week; then drove home in a rental. I drove back with my other car following week. The final paperwork process took literally 20 minutes. What was surprising is that Matt didn’t charge me any of those dealer fees. I almost bought it from another dealer last month who added $900 in extra fees!!! At Van Bortel, I literally paid temp tag fee and another mandatory NY state fee – that’s it. When comparing to other dealers that charges many fees, this was an advantage. I have to say HUGE thanks to Matt for making the process so easy!

Totally pleased

We took delivery of our 2014 Lime Rock Green Corvette from Van Bortel and are totally pleased with the car and the experience of dealing with the company. Matt, our salesman, was a complete professional and handled everything very well, from over the phone, the internet, to completing the paperwork and a through explanation of the car. We highly recommend Matt and Van Bortel!

Van Bortel has the right people

We just purchased our first new Corvette, after having bought ‘pre-enjoyed’ twice in the past. First time dealing for new with Matt, and it was a good experience. We have moved up a little with each trade, and now with a Grand Sport we have the car we wanted. We know the car will be great, and from past experience we know any service we need will be great too. Van Bortel has the right people.

The whole experience enjoyable

We felt that all concerned got a fair deal with the least amount of stress or hassle. Matt was personable and very helpful; answered all of our questions and made the whole experience enjoyable. We’ll be back for another Vette in the future!

Highly recommend

Great experience!! There was no pressure, yet the Van Bortel staff we worked with were very knowledgeable, professional and personable. I would highly recommend the dealership to anyone considering a new Corvette or any other vehicle. In particular Steve and Matt were great to work with.
