Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for Feb. 5th

Each week, Criswell Chevrolet’s Mike Furman delivers new Corvette Stingrays, Grand Sports and Z06s to his customers who come from all parts of the country to work with the nation’s top Corvette seller.

In this week’s Delivery Dispatch, it’s not uncommon to find customers who will drive a couple hundred miles to make a deal on a new Corvette with Mike at Criswell Chevy. This week’s deliveries feature customers from PA, VA as well as some local MD residents. Mike was in a minor fender-bender this week after being rear-ended by a driver who was most likely texting at the time. Thank God Mike was driving his 2015 Impala and not his Z06 or the ’67 Coupe! 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.

~For those of you that don’t know me…"Hi, my name is Mike Furman and I am a Corvette-aholic." The first step is to admit it. I have been addicted since I first saw the 1978 Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car featured in the magazine section of the High School Library Spring 1978. Late that Summer is when I started selling Corvette’s and the rest is history. I have now owned 18 Corvettes (and 44 Musclecars) but please don’t ask which was my favorite as I have never seen a Corvette that I haven’t liked. I was not going to do a Delivery Post today as yesterday afternoon driving home from work I was rear ended as I sat waiting to make a left hand turn in my 2015 Impala. I assume the guy behind me was texting as I saw him coming and braced for the hit. I’m ok but my addiction for Corvette’s has me up at 5am EST sitting at the computer gathering my thoughts and pictures for my fellow Corvette enthusiasts. I usually end my posts with the words "Drive Safe"…and I mean it, texting and driving is not good for anyone.

~Ren and Jeanne S. From Wilkes Barre, PA contacted me Wednesday and I gave him a sight unseen trade value on his 2008 Z06. Ren had picked out from stock the exact Grand Sport he wanted to Factory order. They drove 208 miles down today in the 2008 Z06 and returned in their brand new 2017 Grand Sport Black with Kalahari interior, Auto trans, 2LT pkg and chrome wheels.

~Jeff K. Of Mechanicsville, VA factory ordered his very first Corvette…and this week he drove home in his brand new 2017 Torch Red Stingray Corvette Cpe. Black wheels, Black badges, red calipers with 7spd manual trans with 2LT Pkg. Back in December I had guessed Feb 4th approx delivery and beat that prediction by 3 days. This is one nice guy with a well deserved 1st Corvette…and it’s a stunner.

~Ted T. Of Bryans Road, MD came in last Saturday and picked out a Watkins Glen Gray 2017 Grand Sport. Monday he traded his 2016 Black Stingray in and drove away in Grand Sport Style! Heritage pkg, Black wheels, 2LT pkg and much more. His family approved.

~Alan J. Of Bethesda, MD was referred to me by a patient of his and he picked out a 2017 Z06-Z07 with Comp seats, yellow calipers, 7spd manual and much more! Alan didn’t even want it cleaned up, that’s his fun he said! Two weeks ago someone ran a stop sign and totaled his C6 Z06 which is what led him to by a C7 Z06.

~Dwayne S. From Bowie, MD was referred to me by his fellow Corvette friend Edwin B (Thank you Sir)..Dwayne traded in his Black 2015 Stingray for this Watkins Glen Gray with Kalahari 2017 Grand Sport. 2LT pkg, Auto trans and much more. Dwayne does a ton of charity work and is not shy of driving his Corvettes. His 2015 Stingray had 29,000 miles.

~Shahul U. Of Germantown, MD is the Sales Mgr at a local Mercedes Dealership and one of the other Managers there referred him to me. So 6 weeks ago Shahul factory ordered a 2017 Grand Sport with Z07 Pkg and J57 ceramic brakes, 7spd manual trans and Comp seats. Watkins Glen Gray was the color of choice! Shahul will be headed the track every chance he gets.

~Even had time to Lease my Corvette customers Cleon and Diane their third Jeep! We are in the same Corvette Club. They bought a beauty of a C6 Grand Sport from me a few years ago.

~Several Truck loads of new Corvettes arrived this week.

~Jay Leno visited Spring Mountain in Pahrump, NV last week for a few days of some spirited driving.

~Look for me at the following Corvette Events this year.
