After a 25 years hiatus’ it was time to rekindle my passion. For weeks on end I searched web sites for privately and dealer owned cars. I narrowed my search down to about 30, I knew 30 Corvettes would take a lot of time to look at. I took two days off from work to get a jump start on the weekend which was the time limit I gave myself. With my list in hand I was off, my intention was not to make offers on the first few, but I did. After two grueling days of sales pitches, offers, and phone calls to my home, I was questioning some of my search criteria because I had more questions than my research could answer and everyone I encountered knew less than I did. There was a Craigslist posting offering information and advice for Corvettes purchaser's, JOEKNOWSCORVETTES, I felt I needed help. I called JOEKNOWSCOREVETTES to find out what service was really offered. After talking with Joe Harvey, I felt he could help at least narrow my search and possibly help locate the Corvette I was looking for. I met Joe the following Saturday, Joe was a straight talking Corvette salesperson who also owns a Corvette himself. He located a prospect car that evening, I came back in to the dealership Sunday morning and drove my 2005 Daytona Sunset Orange Coupe home Sunday afternoon. It was an easy transaction, so easy that I have sent many other customers to Joe and all have had similar experiences.

Joe Harvey is definitely not a normal car salesman. Unlike most sales
people that I have delt with in the past he was more than helpful and
considerate. When our 2008 Corvette showed up and it was less than perfect in condition
Joe went right to work to solve the problem and to get the car into satisfactory
acceptable condition. Joe followed up with numerous phone calls to keep us in
the loop on the progress. Both my wife and myself will surely buy
all future vehicles from JOE, we are more than sure he not only knows
Corvettes but other makes as well. We truly enjoyed the process of acquiring
our Corvette from Joe.

Our purchase experience with Joe was above excellence. His knowledge of Corvettes and the personal attention he gave was outstanding. His instinct on the color and options proved to be the perfect car for my wife. He always kept us informed of the process and was available to answer any questions. We would not hesitate to purchase from Joe again and would recommend his service to anyone.

Joe was very honest and up front from the beginning of negotiations to delivery. The car was purchased sight unseen. It was everything Joe said it was! Overall this was an outstanding experience and we would do it again. I have since referred a friend, who purchase a 2009 Z06. I would strongly recommend doing business with Joe.

Like so many of you, I dreaded the prospect of having to go from dealer to dealer, make call after call, look at car after car, only to find that more often than not, things are just not what they’re advertised to be. Bad internet pics, misleading info just to get you in a seat, etc., etc. And who can you trust these days if you do luck out and find that perfect car?
Corvettes are not Mustangs folks, these are very special cars and at this level you’ve got to work darn hard to find "the one". Between options, colors, low mileage, and a good price, Joe will hook you up hassle free! No pressure and lots of information! Enjoy your hunt but save yourself some time because Joe Harvey DOES know Corvettes! More importantly though, Joe knows Corvette people! He’s probably the most upfront and honest guy you’ll ever buy a car from - period. Do not buy your Vette without at least talking to Joe before you do. You’ll be so glad you did!
Corvettes the greatest American made sports car ever! It’s a great time to buy one and there’s definitely no better guy to buy yours from!
Barry and Sue - Snohomish WA Name: Dave & Jennifer Marshall 2006 Corvette Coupe "Black" We cannot thank you enough for helping us purchase our dream car. I had spent countless hours this last summer searching for Corvettes. I would find one that was the right color and price but the miles were too high. I could never really find the perfect car. While on the internet I ran across Joe’s website. I went on the corvette forum and typed in Joe Harvey’s name and was pleased to see nothing but positive feedback. We gave him a call and explained our situation and within a couple of days he had found the perfect car. The color and options were what we wanted and the miles were really low and the price was definitely in our range. From time to time I will look on the internet and I still have not found a better deal than the one we got from Joe, not even close. The car Joe found for us was located in another state and it took a week or so to arrive, during that time I could not sleep at night and I was emailing and calling Joe everyday, through it all Joe was very patient and understanding and I know he will miss my daily emails. Ha! Ha! We will never forget the day we picked up our 2006 Black on Black Corvette Coupe, everything about the car was perfect, what an experience!!! I would highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for the perfect corvette. We thank you and your staff. Dave and Jennifer Marshall On a whim in July, I test drove a Corvette for the first time. By August, I had chosen a set of features I desired in a Corvette and started looking. I quickly decided I would buy used to avoid the high depreciation when buying new. I then discovered that in today’s used-car marketplace, the 3LT/automatic/coupe was a rare car and none had all the features I desired. So nearly daily I looked through the available Corvette posted on many different web sites, including Joe Harvey’s joeknowscorvettes.com. Finally in mid-December, Joe posted a silver ’08 with all the features I wanted. When I called, he said bought it from the GMAC Smart Auction and it was on its way from Michigan. He then said that many of his customers contingently purchase a Corvette before it arrives with the rider that the customer will inspect and drive it before the deal is actually finalized. He described some of the key gate decisions that the Auction goes through when accepting a vehicle for sale. Further, he described his process to find out more about the vehicle he is purchasing for resale including looking at the AutoCheck, which is similar to a CarFAX. Knowing how rare these features have been in the used Corvettes out there, and the steps Joe took when he purchased it, I jumped at the chance. Joe kept me informed as to where it was and when it would be available. When I inspected and drove it, the Corvette was all I expected and more. And now I drive my dream. Thanks Joe for a pleasurable experience. Jeff Joe, I just want to say thank you for your due diligence in finding me my new Corvette. The day my son and I came into Speedway I was not looking to buy a car that day. That was until I saw the car that Joe had brought up from California. It was a stunning 2007 Le Mans Blue Coupe and I was instantly in awe. Joe gave me the keys and told my son and I to take her out for a test drive. So we decided since my wife works in Monroe we might as well drop by and show her. When she saw it, my wife fell in love with it and immediately told me get it. From there it was a pain less deal. Joe is the best salesman I have ever worked with, very honest and has just as much passion for these cars as my son and I. So in closing, I want to thank you Joe and all the staff at Speedway Chevrolet for another fine deal. I'm really enjoying my new toy in the New Year, so thank you.

Hi Joe,
After we bought the vette, we went to Leavenworth and over Blewett
pass. But now it's in the garage, and we haven't driven it since! So far we
LOVE it and can't wait till spring!!! We are planning a couple trips
this spring, and the license plates say SEE USA. It is definitely
going to be driven a lot.

2004 Corvette Z06 "Black on Black"
It was a pleasure doing business with Joe Harvey of Speedway.
I looked at 7 or 8 Corvette's before working with Joe.
Being a busy professional, time AND trust is very important to me.
I already knew what my trade-in car was worth and the Z06 of my dreams.
A quick frank painless call to Joe about the potential financials of deal was appreciated AND none of the typical spin-selling.
I gained a lot of respect and trust from his honesty and upfront negotiations, as I didn't want to travel all the way up to Monroe from Puyallup only to be approached with a spin-sell once inside the doors. This did NOT happen!
After all, finding a potential Z06 was easy, finding someone I could trust was the hard part.
I didn't mind spending a little more, since I felt I could trust Joe and in the long run I would have a car I could also trust.
My Z06 has turned out to be exactly the condition that Joe said it would be.
Thanks so much for the help and making this dream come true for me.
I will be back for the C6 Z06 in the future.
I Joe Harvey knows what it takes to be a great salesmen in today's environment.
I would not hesitate recommending Joe to any of my contacts whether professionally or personal.

2005 Corvette Roadster "Magnetic Red"
Living in Alaska limits your choices on used Corvettes and I
appreciated the help Joe gave me in locating the "One". I searched for
weeks and found a couple in Washington that interested me but was
concerned about buying sight unseen. I know this is not the way most
people would buy a car especially a Corvette but remember I live in
Alaska. I came across Joe on Craiglist and hit his site. My first
impression when he called was " Joe really does know Corvettes". He
ask me dozens of questions to help him help me find the " One". After
recieving about 3 Corvette packages (photos, build sheets, CarFaxs
etc) there it was, the "One". It had everything I ask for and more.
When I called Joe and told he had found me a car he made sure that the
purchase and delivery was painless. He even had it taken to the port
for shipping. I just want to thank you once again for all your help in
locating my Corvette.

I had asked a couple of local car dealers to locate a red c-5 convertible with a tan top for me. After about a two week wait and no action, I got frustrated and thought I'm going to have to find my car myself. I searched the internet. Right there on Craig's list Seattle I stumbled into joeknowscorvettes. Joe asked me several questions about how I would use the car, particulars about colors and price range. In 3 days Joe had found my baby for me! It was somewhere in Indiana or Iowa, I don't remember...and I didn't care. Buying a car unseen is an unsettling adventure. There are a lot of "what if's". The financial transaction, what if the car isn't what I thought it was going to be? If I wasn't dealing with the right person, the deal could have went sideways 11 times. But it didn't! Everything happened exactly the way Joe said it would. My baby was delivered right to my door in Bismarck, ND. (the delivery driver was even cute) Does Joe know corvettes? UVETTYA......

Hello Joe,
I have to tell you that when I bought my "Dream Car" from you it was one of the most enjoyable experience's I've ever had when it comes to buying a car. I will be sure to tell everyone I meet that you truly are the "Corvette Guru" and if they want to be treated with the utmost respect than they should stop by and see you.
Thanks again,

Deciding on Frank's 6th Corvette was easy - time for a convertible, and the
color was perfect. Joe took his time to make the purchase right for us too.
From obtaining the right trade in to working with us on accessories we
wanted, to helping us find a buyer for rims, his friendly, helpful manner
has been evident. After the sale, Joe continues to be available for us and
has been helpful in finding another vehicle. We highly recommend asking for
Joe's expertise and teamwork in becomming a Corvette owner (or any vehicle),
while making a new friend.

Howdy Joe,
The car is looking as good as ever, I have only managed to put about 800 miles on it. On a short hop over Hiway 2 I ran into a BMW/Audi club out for a run, their lead car was a new M3 and he decided to show his buddies how to spank the General's finest. End result was a Beemer outline on the Vette's flank and the Tuetonic pilot peelng off in disillusionment followed by his posse.
I have bought many cars over the years, both new and used, and dealing with Joe has been the easiest and most troublefree experience of them all. Joe helped me refine my expectations and found me exactly the car I was looking for. He expedited the paperwork process and had me driving home in my new Vette that day.

Dear Joe,
Thank you so much for finding us the right car. We had given up hope of finding a new 2009 with the special 0% financing still available. I was resigned to buying a 2010 without financing, but you searched the country for just the right color and options we requested. I think it was the last one in the country, in Virden, Ill no less. Not only was the car perfect, but the price was better than all other dealer quotes. No hassle, no haggle, just a straight forward great price. The car was here in a week and we couldn't have been more pleased with you and your dealership. The Marque Club should be proud to have you and your dealership as a sponsor of the club.
Thanks again for all your efforts,
Brad & Julie Wilson

Hello Joe,
Let me say first of all that Joe is the MAN!! I was overseas for several months searching for a C6 Corvette via internet.
I looked everywhere from coast to coast for a C6 that suited my wants. It's harder to negotiate with dealers when you are
overseas because I feel they think that people are wasting there time, but this was not the case with Joe. After searching
all those months I came across his website and began to view his Corvette inventory and read the Testimonials. Once
I finished reading the Testimonials I was very impressed and immidiately emailed Joe describing the car I wanted. Within
a few days he contacted me saying he found the car for me. He then sent me pictures along with the Factory Build Sheet and
a Carfax. I was very impressed needless to say. He consistantly worked with me via internet until the day I flew in to Seatac
to take delivery of the car. He even arranged transportation from the airport to Speedway Chevrolet. What more could you
ask for!!!!!!! Joe is the best salesman that I have ever had the pleasure doing busness with..I would definately recommend
him to anyone looking for not just a salesman, but someone who actually cares about the customer and takes pride in what
he does thru in thru.
Carlous York
