Derek Ward and the James Wood Motors team made my 2027 Corvette 3LZ Z06 purchase a pleasure. Derek was outstanding to work with and ensured the car was ready when I arrived with my wife to pick it up. I a Corvette 3LZ Z06 purchase a pleasure. Derek was outstanding to work with and ensured the car was ready when I arrived with my wife to pick it up. I asked on Friday if they could install intake protection on the front and the sides and it was perfectly done Tuesday when I arrived to take posession of the car. Their willingness to take a $1000 deposit to hold the car while I secured funds put me at ease knowing the car was soon to be mine. I highly recommend working with this dealership and especially Derek Ward. Fantastic job! More

We were very upfront about the bottom line was the price. We didn't want to be hounded about pricing/negotiating. We want bottom lines and made our decision off the bottom line he gave. Then when he did not get the response he wanted he continued to try to push us into buying additional coverage we already said no to. He even tried dropping the price again, which was quite offensive because we already asked for lowest price. We almost walked away from the entire sale because of his interaction. More

Derik was fantastic in his transparency and patience. I never felt pressured at any point in time. I’d also like to commend Jeff B who was the same. Also felt comfortable with finance.

Derek was the best salesman I’ve ever experienced. Never have I had someone so knowledgeable about my truck. And yet not so pushy that it would drive someone away. Never have I had someone so knowledgeable about my truck. And yet not so pushy that it would drive someone away. More

Excellent pricing. Not pushy. Derek, our salesman, was awesome! The process was quick and easy. I will definitely buy my GMC from them in the future! Not pushy. Derek, our salesman, was awesome! The process was quick and easy. I will definitely buy my GMC from them in the future! More
