@Griffanytiggs – If the reserve was not met, I would be glad to discuss it with you. It has not gone to classifieds. Please let me know. I was so excited...my dream car!! Now I'm sad. -Tiffany. ...
Hello Tiffany! Thank you for your interest and bids. To our knowledge, we do not have the capabilities of adding any time to this 3rd party auction platform. You are correct, a bid of $7,800 will unfortunately not meet the reserve for this vehicle. However, what do you like about this Corvette specifically? We do have 21 locations with tons of other Corvette options available if this one doesn't workout. Happy to connect with you and assist in finding that dream car!
