This is the second purchase I have made from Bill Kay Chevrolet. As a car guy, there’s nothing I hate more than doing the purchasing of a car, but I have to say, after tons of experience, I find this dea Chevrolet. As a car guy, there’s nothing I hate more than doing the purchasing of a car, but I have to say, after tons of experience, I find this dealership to be pretty straightforward in their dealings. Colin Lewin, their sales rep, worked very hard on making a deal that satisfied all parties concerned. I felt that the sales manager in the finance department was more than willing to work hard as well. There are a lot of dealerships that I would recommend to stay away from, this is not one of them. I highly recommend Bill K Chevrolet. More

Dealing with the team at Bill Kay was a smooth and painless experience. The team members were helpful and answered all questions promptly. Only thing is - I should have made a trip to Illinois and d painless experience. The team members were helpful and answered all questions promptly. Only thing is - I should have made a trip to Illinois and drove the car before I bought it. When it was delivered, I found a few mechanical issues I was not expecting. I'm sure it will tun out OK. When buying an antique or classic car, I would recommend making the trip and seeing the vehicle in person before buying. More

On March 11, 2025 I had a 9:30am appointment with someone named Jason per an email sent by Ryan Baker. I arrived early since I worked a midnight shift the prior night and came straight from work. A guy named named Jason per an email sent by Ryan Baker. I arrived early since I worked a midnight shift the prior night and came straight from work. A guy named Colin Lewin unlocked the doors at 9:00am. He said Jason wasn't there that day and he could help me. I was interested in a 2024 Corvette (vin 1G1YB2D44R5130488) that was advertised at a $9,425.00 discount. It was also advertised as having potential further discounts for a Costco membership and a Camaro loyalty discount for qualified buyers. Colin informed me that I did not qualify for the $3,000 Costco discount because my membership was the Gold Club membership and not the Executive membership. I told him I bought a 2 door CTS-V several years prior and asked if that would qualify me to the Camaro Loyalty discount. He said that unfortunately anyone wanting that discount had to have the specific vehicle currently registered in their name. I also told Colin I worked for a GM supplier and had a discount for that as well. Colin completely ignored the GM Supplier discount even though I had my work ID and was able to provide remittance advice statements for recent pay periods. I asked to see the deal sheet and I declined the offer for a test drive so he would know I was a serious potential customer and not just somebody looking to joyride a car. During the conversation Colin must've sensed that I was slipping off the hook so he brought over the finance guy named Tony. Any time a salesman brings in another salesman is a red flag. You get two salesman ganging up on you and you cannot tie a particular lie to a specific individual and they have deniablity that any lie was ever told. Tony produced a vague and incomplete deal sheet that included a $3,989.00 upcharge for a paint and upholstery protection package, a list price that was $3,500 higher than what was advertised, and the deal sheet did not included the total price for the vehicle. It also included an estimated monthly payment based on how much I was willing to put down. So Tony had all the information available for full disclosure- principal, rate, and time. But he chose not to disclose it. Omission and deceit are key components of his sales strategy. So now Tony is pressing me to see how much he can get out of me for a down payment that day. Tony is a smart guy. He isn't just the finance guy. He is the closer. He does this every day and he's a skillful negotiator who can steer the conversation into a verbal commitment with even the worst of deals. He isn't your friend. He isn't looking out for your best interests. He is a shark and there is blood in the water. People like Tony are best avoided in any situation; especially when buying a car. At the time GM was offering financing at 6.39% for buyers who qualified on this particular vehicle. There are other vehicles that offer better financing but not this one. Nobody buys a Corvette because it makes financial sense. I knew I qualified. My credit score and payment history are flawless. I don't get turned down by potential creditors. I turn them down. My credit is bulletproof like gold plated titanium. Tony informed me that I was approved "within a few tenths of 6.39%." Which is odd because I never allowed him to run my credit and he didn't run it. So he must've used his powers of clairvoyance to get me approved. Needless to say, I did not buy that car. I told them I was going to go check on another car and I'd almost certainly be back the next day or that week to sign the dotted line on the horrible deal they offered me. I knew I was never coming back but what is one more lie right? But Tony and Colin sold a car that day. It just wasn't their car. I went about 20 minutes down the road and spoke to another salesperson at another dealership. I bought a 2024 Corvette 2LT with the z51 performance package. It is virtually identical to the Corvette at Bill Kay except it is black exterior and black interior. The guys down the road More

Stereotypical used car dealer experience, lie to get people in the door and then pull the rug once enough of the customer's time has been wasted. It started off ok - Because I'm not local to the deale people in the door and then pull the rug once enough of the customer's time has been wasted. It started off ok - Because I'm not local to the dealership, I worked out critical details with them in advance, including the specific vehicle, that it was eligible for the federal used ev tax credt and I would be using it, price before and after the tax credit, and the fact that I was using outside financing. We set a time for me to go in to the dealership to buy the car, with the understanding that I was driving across the state to get there. This is where things started going wrong. As I was about halfway across the state on my way to the dealership, they emailed me advising that they just realized their staff who can process the federal tax credit weren't in at the time we had scheduled my appointment, and could I please come the next day instead. Since I was already halfway there, I said I would still show up tonight, take the car for a drive, and get a room overnight to complete the sale in the morning. When I arrived at the dealership, the test drive went well, so we sat down to review the details inside. The salesman tried to give me trouble over the outside financing, saying that contrary to what I was told via email he couldn't sell the vehicle to me unless I drove back to my local bank and picked up a bank check for the total purchase price. (Note that the exact total including tax/title/registration etc hadn't been disclosed in advance, so it wasn't possible for me to bring a check for the exact amount at this point.) After the salesman got up to check with his manager a few times, the manager came over and said it wouldn't be an issue, they were fine getting the payment via wire or fedex from the bank. So, all good, but we still have to come back at 10am to finalize things while the right people are there. We go get a room for the night, and are getting ready to go back to the dealership, when at 9:36am I get a call from the salesman. Turns out, he was wrong, and the vehicle in question doesn't qualify for the federal credit because (insert nonsensical reason here.) So, the 3 hours we spent driving there, then the hotel room we had to get because they scheduled an appointment for a time when they couldn't actually do what the appointment was for, plus the 3 hours we would spend driving back home, was all wasted time and money because this dealer's staff either outright lied or was simply incompetent and had zero regard for their customers time and money.
