Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for Jan 12th


Each week, Criswell Chevrolet’s Mike Furman delivers new Corvette Stingrays, Grand Sports, Z06s and ZR1s to his customers who come from all parts of the country to work with the nation’s top individual Corvette seller.

As we come to the end of the C7 generation, Mike shares some of his own throwback photos to when his dealership received the final batch of 60th Anniversary 2013s. When other dealers didn’t want them, Criswell took them all and guess what, every single one of them was sold to a happy buyer! In this week’s report, Mike shines the spotlight on an Elkhart Lake Blue Corvette Grand Sport. And speaking of throwbacks, Mike also shares a couple photos of Mr. Frank Class who purchased several Corvettes from Mike over the years and who the throwback portion of is weekly posts is named after. Be like Mr. Class and tell Mike which is your favorite from this week’s collection.

Visit Mike’s facebook page for even more photos and videos of his new Corvette deliveries: CorvetteFurman.
