Seven Hills Motorcars

Seven Hills Motorcars is a Cincinnati-area classic car dealer at 9213 Blue Ash Rd, focused on Corvettes. Its own website says the business was founded in 2005, and the Better Business Bureau lists a September 2005 start date and Matt Milbrandt as president. The company calls itself Cincinnati's premier Corvette specialist, a claim we cannot independently rank, but its inventory and wording show a narrow focus rather than a general used car lot.

A focused dealer

Seven Hills Motorcars sells from its own stock. The company says it specializes in 1957 to 1982 Corvettes, Cadillac convertibles from before 1976, and 1970s Pontiac Trans Ams and Chevrolet Camaros. It also says it does not buy cars at dealer auctions and that each car is hand picked because it is special, rare, and because the company likes it. That is the company's own description of its sourcing. Nothing on its site mentions consignment.

What Seven Hills Motorcars sells

When we looked, the inventory ran to roughly two dozen cars across three pages. Corvettes dominated, including a 1959 model at $84,900, a 1967 at $119,000, a 1966 at $229,000 and a 2003 at $19,900, with other Corvettes, including a 1990 ZR1, listed as "call for price." Outside Corvettes, the list included a 1970 Camaro at $79,900, a 1973 Cadillac Coupe DeVille at $37,900, a 1956 Chevrolet 3100 pickup at $109,900, a 2020 Ford Mustang GT Premium and a 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170. The site's make filter also lists a few outliers such as Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz and AC Autokraft, so the stock is not purely General Motors. Inventory changes quickly, so use the dealer's site for current cars, and compare with classic Corvettes for sale elsewhere to get a feel for pricing.

Buying from Seven Hills Motorcars

The company says the vast majority of its cars are shipped across the country or abroad, and that for U.S. buyers it handles the whole shipping process in house, without a broker. It offers shipping quotes on request. Its pages do not describe financing, deposits or inspection arrangements, so ask about those directly. Because many of its buyers purchase from a distance, it is worth reading our dealer buying guide, then asking for the VIN, title status, photos of the underside and an independent pre-purchase inspection before you send money. Corvettes in particular deserve a close look at frame and birdcage condition, and at whether the numbers match.

Selling a car to Seven Hills Motorcars

Seven Hills Motorcars also buys cars. Its about page says it is always looking for quality Corvettes from before 1982 and rust-free Cadillac convertibles from 1976 or earlier, and that owners can call to get an offer. The company also advertises a $350 finder's fee to anyone who refers it to a car it ends up buying. The contact for sellers on its site is Matt, at (513) 708-1468 or [email protected].

Reputation

The BBB shows the business as not accredited and not rated, with no complaints closed in the last three years and one customer review on file. On the review aggregator Birdeye, which pulls together Google, Facebook and its own reviews, the dealer shows roughly 3.5 to 3.6 stars from about 50 reviews, and the exact count differs slightly between views. Reviewers who were happy mention a smooth process, quick paperwork and good shipping. Critical reviews describe rust and body filler on a purchased car, thin paint, high prices, and difficulty reaching the business by phone or email. That is a mixed picture and a reason to ask specific questions about condition and to inspect before buying.
