Marcia Ridpath

Hello all! I recently purchased my first Corvette ever (2024 Stingray Rapid Blue 2LT with Z51 Package) and I have to say, it was one of the most pleasant car I recently purchased my first Corvette ever (2024 Stingray Rapid Blue 2LT with Z51 Package) and I have to say, it was one of the most pleasant car buying experiences that I have ever had. I live in Texas so I was not able to physically go and see the car in person but the entire staff at Rio Vista Chevrolet in Buellton California went above and beyond to make my dream car a reality. Oscar Sanchez was particularly incredible in guiding me through the entire process (I highly recommend talking with Oscar if you're thinking about buying a car from Rio Vista Chevrolet, he was absolutely awesome!). Oscar was always available to answer any questions that I might have, he personally took several pictures and videos of my car, he was extremely detailed, professional, honest (which is a huge personal thing for me when purchasing a car) and always went the extra mile when communicating with me which really gave me that extra sense of security since I wasn't able to physically travel from Texas to California to view and purchase my car. In addition to the great help that Oscar provided, I also want to thank Tyler Smith (General Sales Manager), Marcia Ridpath (Sales Representative), and Erik Perez (Finance Manager) for their help as well, I couldn't have asked for a smoother and straight forward buying process than I experienced, thank you all so much!! Also, just another quick note, in reference to timing and delivery, I first called Rio Vista on 10-10 about my car and before I knew it I had my car fully financed, papers signed, and my car was delivered to my house in Texas on 10-19. If you're thinking about buying a car in the near future, I would absolutely recommend giving Rio Vista Chevrolet in California a call, they will 100% take care of you and all of your car needs. Thanks again for all the help Oscar and team, I couldn't be happier right now!! More

Rio Vista should be called Hometown Chevrolet, because the minute you walk in the door you feel like you are at home. I dealt with an exceptional sales representative, Marcia Ridpath, when I sold my BMW 6 the minute you walk in the door you feel like you are at home. I dealt with an exceptional sales representative, Marcia Ridpath, when I sold my BMW 650i Convertible. If you need to sell a used vehicle please consider going through Rio Vista Chevrolet used car sales, and ask for Marcia. She is amazing. She made the process so straightforward and her pleasant attitude is only superseded by her infectious smile. She is extremely knowledgeable about not only Chevrolets, but many other cars too. She knew more about My BMW than I did for sure. Thank you again, Marcia and Rio Vista Chevrolet. More

I was shopping for a 2023 Chevy Bolt and contacted close to a dozen different Chevy dealers. Rio Vista's transparent pricing and low fees came out ahead of all the rest and Marcia Ridpath's early confirmati to a dozen different Chevy dealers. Rio Vista's transparent pricing and low fees came out ahead of all the rest and Marcia Ridpath's early confirmation to me (in December 2023) that Rio Vista would be participating in the $7500 EV point of sale credit starting in January 2024 sealed the deal. They offer free delivery in California too! Just received the Bolt EV and am a happy customer. More
