Britain Chevrolet (GearheadSS)

THIS is how you sell a car in 2018.

I was in the market for a 2018 2SS 1LE and spent a bit of time test driving and checking out vehicles locally. Unfortunately, once I was ready to actually get a deal on one, they all either ghosted me or refused to even give me a price without standing on the lot.

Enter Camaro6 and @GearheadSS

I checked out the forums and saw that GearheadSS had exactly the car I was looking for, and the price was posted and fair. This turned into the easiest and best car buying experience of my life. All it took was a simple phone call and a few texts with one of Britain's sales guys (John Foote) to get everything arranged.

I rented a car and drove to Texas, and John picked me up from the rental car company. All the paperwork was basically done, and I was back on the road in a very short amount of time. Even the finance guy didn't try to hard sell me on anything. THIS is how you sell a car and get a customer for life. 10/10. Would drive to Texas again to buy a car.

If you're in the market for a car, give these guys a shout.

To all the Oklahoma dealers I tried to deal with, you need to get your head out of your asses and welcome how people buy cars in 2018 (not that I'll ever buy one locally again).

Thanks again for the business, both of you! That's what we're here for. We try to make it as easy as possible for everyone. Seeing forum members take delivery of their dream car is the best part of my job.

Two Chevy dealers are much closer to me than BRITAIN. My SS 1LE and a number of other cars and trucks have come from them. Glad to hear others like them, too.

I'd like to echo what was said above. I also bought my 1SS 1LE from Britain and had the pleasure of dealing with John Foote and Jeff Blain. We handled all the negotiations over the phone and email and when it came time to go pick it up, the process couldn't have been faster and easier. No bullshit, no issues. The signing of papers took less than 10 minutes. We stood around and talked about cars more than we did talk about my car! It was an absolute joy to drive up from Temple to Greenville to deal with Britain. I got my dream Camaro and they earned 2 new customers for life in my wife and I. Thanks again!

When the 1LEs first came out and were scarce, Jeff and Britain hooked me up with exactly what I was looking for at a good price. Contact Jeff and he will take care of you.
