I will only buy cars from one guy. And we all know I drive what I want.
Dave retired in June 2010 after 35 years of selling Chevrolets. However... if you wish to make a new or used car or truck purchase, you can still contact him directly at (727)463-1000, or contact me. Arrangements can be made for a vehicle acquisition. I love G4, I will not likely trade this. It's the best of both worlds. I did about a dozen deals a year with Daryl Lane back in the day because more of my friends were single, and we would buy whatever was hot on a whim. John Wagner was always happy to see me at the dealership too. I remember saying to him one time "I'm thinking about making a move." He looked at me and smiled and said "You've never come here and not made a move." ... True... Blake Hubbard on the used side has also treated me very well. G3 actually came from his side, and he did me right on that deal. I remember years ago in 2000, having to walk away from a C5 Z06 because it was a little out of my price range even with the deal they were gonna work. I could have gotten it for around $49,000.00 out the door which was great because they were about $56,000.00 with the mark up. That was the day I test drove a WS6 Trans Am and was underwhelmed by it, and then ordered G1 through David Jenquin. Well, I got into one in 2006, and I must say it was well bought. It was everything I thought it would be. I have to say that EVERYONE I ever sent to Dave Palmeri since we hooked up about 5 years ago ( including my own mother ) was 100% satisfied with the sale and the treatment and continued service thereafter. I told Daryl's daughter, Melanie ( really cute ) recently... "When your family went on vacation, me and my friends paid for it." The Maher history... I did have one other purchase... Prior to the Camaro SS SLP (Ghost 1) I bought a 1998 Camaro Z28 1LE from Quinlan (now Autoway) Chevrolet. I was having trust issues without Daryl at Maher. Bob Petrillo did me a great deal on the 1LE. I wanted it because it was a straight up Auto Cross package that you had to have an SCCA license to even purchase in previous years. I wanted that LS1 power because I saw that they were running 13.34 @ 105.6 mph bone stock. We called Petrillo "The Pizza Man" because he always delivered. Dave got me back at Maher though. I don't really remember how I ended up at his desk. I think somebody suggested I talk to him about getting into a Corvette. That obviously worked out well.
This was they day I went with Troy to pick up his C6 Corvette.

She laughed, said "Hell yea !"; and we high fived each other. I was actually serious. He had 3 of my friends in Camaro Z28s at the same time while I was in the Impala SS. It was crazy like that. Then I had my co-workers going to him to for trucks and SUVs.
