Thank you @Nik and to the CCF for having me, I'm excited to be a part of this forum and will do my best to contribute and share pertinent information on here. My father, Bill Spencer, purchased the dealership Oct 1, 1990, and I was born 23 days later. I've worked at the dealership for as long as I can remember. I am happily married with two children, boy (2 yrs) & girl (2 weeks). I went to school in Barrie, ON and got a business degree from the Automotive Business School of Canada.
Our dealership is located in Cobourg, ON, a small town of approx 20,000 people. It is 1 hr east or Toronto right on the 401 so most of you will have driven past at one time or another. We sell approx 600 new vehicles per year. In 2019 we delivered 80 C7's. 2020 YTD we have delivered 41 C7's and barring any other assembly line interruptions, we will receive and deliver 36 2020 C8's this year- for a total of 77 new Corvette's.
At this time, we have 19 2021 C8 deposits.
We ran out of new Corvettes in the fall of 2020, and over the course of the winter amassed approximately 60 more from across the country. The bulk of the cars came out of Aberta, British Columbia and Quebec. Despite the C8 being right on the horizon, the appetite for C7 remianed incredibly strong. This just goes to show the incredible following the Corvette franchise has. These sales numbers will help us earn significant C8 allocation in the future. It is my understanding that in 2019 we were the 3rd largest Corvette dealer in the country, trailing # 1 by 4 cars and # 2 by 1 unit.
If you are in the market for a new C8, and have not yet placed a deposit with another dealer, I ask that you consider us.
Thanks again,
Andrew Spencer
