Very shady business. Treat you like your a bother and a hassle. They have no problems with telling you lies either. I would not recommend dealing with them.

3/8/22 addendum- The owner of Contes Corvettes recently reached out to me to say that he had not received my communications and that he wished to make good on his promise to help with the repairs. Today, a check arrived in the mail to help cover costs. Because of this, I think it is only fair to upgrade my previous rating.
Original review: I purchased two vehicles from Conte’s Corvettes on November 28th, a 1972 Corvette convertible and a 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser. There was poor disclosure of defects in both vehicles prior to the sale and I was told that the Corvette was taken into the shop and “gone over” to make sure everything was in good shape prior to shipping. Both vehicles were advertised on eBay Motors and neither advertisement mentioned or showed any of the defects discovered at time of delivery. The Corvette was portrayed as an “off the frame” restoration car and was impeccable with exceptional paint and chrome. The FJ Cruiser was presented as pristine, with only 1500 original miles and a transferable extended warranty.
On delivery, it was immediately evident that the Corvette had some problems: non functional emergency brake, nonfunctional electric clock, non functional courtesy lights, driver door switch that sparked during operation, missing jack and tools, fasten seatbelt light that would not turn off, and significant driver side paint defects (driver side door and rear quarter with thin paint and “stripes” of primer visible through the finish). The FJ had an area on the hood where the paint had been worn down to the primer coat, which was absolutely not disclosed. The owner of Conte’s Corvettes, Marty, admitted to me that he knew about the FJ paint defect.
When the problems with Corvette were brought to Marty’s attention, he told me that he would cover the costs of repairs. The cost of the mechanical repairs was $2000.00. The paint defects on both vehicles will not be repaired due to the likelihood that the repairs would not improve overall appearance. I sent the invoice for the Corvette’s repairs to Marty and after an 11 day delay for his response, he responded “what do you think is fair?” I suggested that he decide what is fair, but that I paid $2K. That was another 11 days ago and he has not responded since, even after multiple attempts to contact him. Also, Marty has never responded to multiple attempts to requests to transfer the extended warranty on the FJ Cruiser - completely ignored my emails and phone calls.
Another problem with this transaction was that at the time of purchase, Conte’s Corvettes did not hold the title to the Corvette (also not disclosed at the time of purchase). The title was actually held by a bank in Alaska. The delays in obtaining the title resulted in fines that we incurred from the DMV.
My initial conversations with Marty were positive and he seemed willing to make things right. However, the further we have gotten from the sale, the worse communications have become and now I appear to be “ghosted”.
In summary, there was poor disclosure of problems with both of these vehicles prior to the sale. This was misleading and resulted in inflated pricing and disappointment. After the sale, communication and support has been poor.response / report this review -

Just WOW ! We called Marty about a week after this pristine 2003 Z06 came on the market. He was fantastic; told us everything about the car, had all maintenence records. He had us at hello, lol; we bought it sight unseen, with no test drive. Sounds Crazy - but, all paperwork, shipping was worked out. To say we're thrilled about the car that was delivered to SC is an understatement. It's gorgeous, rides like a dream - just like new, as advertised. Thank you so much. Joe and Maureen, ie. MOJOZO6

Biggest scam and crook. Marty's word means nothing. Bought a 95 vette, A/C didn't work properly. Part of purchase was Marty promised to fix a/c. Got a used part , missing pins, had his guy Luis install module, didn't work. Told me he would get right part and fix it according to our written agreement. Bought car end of March. Almost August, Marty never returned dozens of phone calls. This place since Joe Conte left is a rip off.
