~This Wednesday, October 2nd I fly out to Nevada to meet up with 20 of my Corvette customers from all over the USA to experience the Corvette Owners School in Pahrump, NV at the Ron Fellows Spring Mountain Race track…so I will be out of the office October 2nd-6th. Wednesday eve I will have a Pizza Dinner Party in The Clubhouse so everyone can get to meet and ask questions. Many folks have never been on a Racetrack before so I want everyone to feel as comfortable as possible. I will have a special guest joining us, he knows the track pretty well and will help with the questions.

*Also on October 2nd is the reveal of the C8 Convt down in Florida. The internet will be buzzing. So stay tuned.

~The C8 allocation and ordering process has just started two weeks ago. This is a process that plays out over time. Be Patient. Well worth the wait.

~Some deliveries this week.

~DD of BB, Pennsylvania called me last week as he had bought an SS from me two years ago. He wanted to trade in his Admiral Blue 2019 Stingray for a Sebring Orange 2019 Grand Sport cpe. I gave him a sight-unseen trade value and Saturday he made the 3-hour drive down to swap Corvettes. Equipment list: 7 spd manual transmission, Black Competition seats, cf badge pkg, black wheels, cf painted mirrors, navigation/PDR and 2LT pkg.

~Gary P. of Bradenton, Florida has been following me on the Forums for years as he has owned close to 20 Corvettes over the past 40 years. Gary factory ordered this Arctic White 2019 Grand Sport with Adrenaline Red interior. Gary flew Monday eve and arrived Tuesday afternoon to sign and drive home. Gary received a call from his wife while here at Criswell that he had better get home fast as they had just won a high five-figure Lottery and need to head over to the Lottery office tomorrow afternoon! That makes the 1,000 mile ride home in a brand new Corvette interesting, to say the least!! Equipment list: Auto trans, 3LT pkg, transparent top, Red calipers, chrome wheels, red seat belts and much more!

~Roger K. of Nanuet, New York bought his last Corvette from me, he had ordered a Silver 2013 Z06…this time he factory ordered a 2019 Blade Silver Z06 with Kalahari interior. Roger completed the paperwork/ payment process via Fed Ex and shipped his 13 Z06 down to Criswell. Plycar trucking delivered it his new Corvette via enclosed trailer and now Roger’s new 2019 Z06 is home in Rockland County, New York. Equipment list: 7 spd manual transmission, Competition seats, black wheels, red calipers, cf painted mirrors, navigation /PDR and 2LZ pkg.

~Some others that left the yard this week…

A Couple of Dealer Rater Reviews from this week…Some very kind words that are very much appreciated.

~All the good things that you have heard about Mike Furman are absolutely true. He is a delightful person to work with, he treats his customers well and his encyclopedic knowledge of Corvettes is amazing. He makes the purchasing experience a true pleasure. And, it is refreshing to work with someone who greatly enjoys his job. Mike is a seasoned professional who represents GM, Chevrolet, and Criswell very well. My only regret is that I didn’t meet Mike earlier in life so that I could have purchased more cars from him. If you are in the market for a Corvette, choose Mike. You will be pleased that you did! ~Allen H. of Virginia.

~The entire buying experience with Mike Furman was positive, professional, and smooth. It actually went better than I expected, especially since it was an out of state purchase for me. I would recommend Mike to anyone considering buying a Corvette, particularly if placing a Factory Order. Mike was very helpful in helping me choose certain options for the car, such as the Z07 package as well as guiding me through the Factory ordering process. He spent a considerable amount of time with me on the phone discussing all the build options and how they would affect the car’s performance. Since this was my first Corvette I really appreciated his input, especially since he has done numerous High-Performance Driving Schools and Track Days. At the end of the ordering process, I decided to take Mike’s strong recommendation to do the R8C Museum Delivery at Bowling Green. I picked up the car with my son and had a great time. A very special time I am sure we will both always remember. Thanks, Mike for a great experience. ~Michael O.

~This is my first Corvette, and first time working with Mike Furman. After purchasing 9 vehicles, and 22 motorcycles, Mike stands far above all other representatives for the following reasons: 1: Enthusiasm. Mike is as excited about Corvettes as the clients purchasing them. The typical car salesperson could be selling appliances, given their lack of knowledge/passion/interest in the vehicle. Not Mike…after 41 years of selling Corvettes, he is as passionate about the brand as the client making the purchase. 2: Product Knowledge. In my first face-to-face meeting with Mike, and after hours of research, I came prepared with dozens of written questions. Mike confidently answered all of them. He never once said "I don’t know", or "I’ll get back to you". 3: Leadership: Mike leads by example in the Corvette experience. He has owned 19 Corvettes and has #20 on order. Think about the typical representative you may have worked within previous car purchases…did she ever own what she was selling? Did he ever tour the assembly plant where the vehicle was made? Does she have direct contact with brand executives to makes things right if there is ever a problem? Mike has all of that, and his clients benefit tremendously from it. 4: Work Ethic: Mike is promptly at his desk most days by 6:00am. Yes at his desk, at the dealership. I always receive return emails from him within just a few hours. 5: Client Skill Developer: Mike has a dedicated web site that contains instructional videos to help learn about your Corvette. Mike also invites Corvette clients to Ron Fellows driving experience to learn about the Corvette in a safe driving experience. What other vehicle sales professional have you experienced that does this? For me, the answer is simple: No one. I could go on, but you probably get the point by now…Mike differentiates himself vs all other sales professionals. Most of his sales are from referrals because you want other friends and co-workers to experience a first-class purchase experience. Thank you Mike for making the car buying experience a pleasure, and for elevating it to a new professional level. ~Paul F. of North Potomac, MD
