Sounds like a crappy dealer if they don't have someone certified to work on transmissions.

get car shipped to a major chevy dealer? I know Buff Whelan in macomb county is big. Come to think of it, any previous pontiac dealer should be a possibility too as the Solstice GXP had the LNF so if you need any work done that might be an option.

Heck, a "Pontiac-Buick/GMC" dealer installed my GMS1

Anyone want to recommend a good dealer in southern Michigan?

Don't care what brand it is, not even sure what I'm gonna buy yet. I'm thinking a Cruze or V6 Mustang, or if I wait till late fall I might be able to put down a big enough down payment on a Challenger R/T to make payments on one.

I know none of them are really comparable to each other, but those are just the 3 cars I'm thinking about right now if I don't put a crap ton more into the Cobra.

I've had a lot o problems with my car but buff whelan is very good. I bought my car there and the sales guy gave me 3 free oil changes and a few coupons because of I was in there 5 times the first month of ownership.

Also, when I bought the car, I was calling other dealers for their prices in front of my sales person. Did that five times and he didn't care, even gave me lower numbers
