Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for Jan. 29th

In this week’s Delivery Dispatch, Mike is honored by Chevrolet as the Washington D.C. area sales leader for 2016!

Check out the photos of this week’s deliveries plus a huge batch of barn finds and vintage Corvette photos await!

As always, you can follow his deliveries on his facebook page, CorvetteFurman.

~This week was full of surprises. Each day I say I can’t get any busier…and I get proven wrong by the following day. "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; An optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."
Winston Churchill

~I sell more than just Corvettes so on top of the 400+ Corvettes(both new and used) I delivered this past year I delivered 150 other vehicles to my previous customers etc…This week was chocked full of Silverado’s, Jeeps and used trucks with Corvettes sprinkled in. I also had the chance to meet a group of Avalon School kids that took a field trip to meet me at the dealership. We had Goodie bags for them and I believe their favorite part of the trip is when I started up a Z06 for them in Sport mode.

~Also took time on Friday (my supposed day off) to go to the Wash, DC Auto Show as GM asked me to attend for an award they had for me.

~Upon my return home from the Auto Show I received a call from GM saying they are sending me to the Daytona 500 Race Feb 23rd-27th. That is one race that I have never attended so I am looking forward to it. This will be a Chevrolet sponsored trip and I’m packing my bags now!

~Don C. From Cresskill, NJ called me three years ago and he was specific in what he was seeking. Unfortunately at the time he couldn’t wait to order so he found his 2015 Corvette Z51 elsewhere. He kept my info until this week when he reached out to me for a new 2017 Z06. I had just the right Corvette, Watkins Glen Gray with Black interior, Auto trans, 2LZ pkg and the Spectra Gray wheels.

I gave Don a sight un seen trade in appraisal and a deal was made over the phone within minutes. We fed ex’d the paperwork back and forth…Don has a really bad back and wasn’t able to make the 4 hour drive South so I cleared my schedule for Saturday afternoon and drove his new 2017 Z06 to Exit 17(Vince Lombardi Service Station) off the New Jersey Turnpike, right next to the George Washington Bridge Exit that leads in to New York City. We swapped keys and I put my dealer plate on his 1,200 mile 2015 and Don and his son DJ drove off in to the sunset with 650 HP. 470 miles for me in two different Corvettes from Noon to 7:30pm. Well worth the trip as I am sure Don will be my customer for a lifetime…and maybe his 14 yr old son DJ as well. Don picked me up two slices of NJ Pizza for my trip home.

~Pedro M. From Olney, MD stopped by last week and picked out this Watkins Glen Gray and Red 2017 Z06 with 7spd manual! He left the dealership shifting the gears like a Pro.

~Stuart and Marilyn have been buying their family vehicles from me since 2000! This week they picked up a new Silverado LT.

~These three gents drove up from Southern Maryland in their three Stingrays and bought new Grand Sports from me Saturday morning. Picking them up this week. Pictures to follow.

~Mike M. stopped by with his Mother to see some new Corvettes…

~Larry J. from Livingston, Texas took Museum delivery this past month and sent me this picture from his driveway.

~John R, from Wheeling, West Virginia drove 4 hours to pick up his new Corvette Spice Edition from me and when he returned home he cleaned it up and sent these cool pics.

**Have a great week everyone…Save the Wave.
