Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for Feb 6th


Criswell Chevrolet’s Mike Furman delivers new Corvettes to his customers who come from all across the country to work with the nation’s top individual Corvette seller.

It’s always a busy week for the nation’s top Corvette seller as we are in the middle of the February order cycle which means those customers selected for an allocation will soon be driving their dream cars. And speaking of dreams, check out the happy customers below who just received their new 2022 Corvettes! Mike can deliver your Corvette at his dealership in Maryland, or you can pick it up at the NCM. Mike also does courtesy deliveries at participating dealerships and he offers direct shipping to your door! In addition to today’s delivery pics, make sure you stick around for the collection of throwback and vintage pics and let us know which is your favorite. My favorite this week is the Split Window Sting Ray parked in the living room!

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

The first question I usually get no matter where I go…"Are you busy?" Candid response is "I’m busier then a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs" For example, I have 44 sold Corvette orders getting built this coming week at Bowling Green. Normal is 8-13 per week so you can imagine what its like when its 3-4 times that amount! The next question is how many assistants do you have? Zero, I do not have assistants. Although I haven’t been on a schedule at work for 10+ years it’s a 24/7/365 job as long as I have a cell phone in my hand. The Corvette world is on fire and has been for a long time as the 8th generation Corvette has delivered in a big way. Back in the 1978-1990 time frame at the Malcolm Konner Corvette shows if I spoke with Zora Duntov about future product he would always say "Rumors sell magazines, not cars." Well today’s world has the internet and you would be shocked at some of the stuff I read and hear from folks…talk about rumor…sometimes it’s so far off base I just shake my head and think back to those weeks that Zora spent as a guest of the Konner family at their families Chevrolet dealership.

It was always cool to see Zora Duntov and Larry Shinoda attend the Konner Corvette shows…especially wearing Malcolm Konner shirts!

A few Corvette deliveries from this past week…

~Thomas and Michelle S. of Landenberg, Pennsylvania met me at the Corvettes of Carlisle event two years ago and decided that when the time was right that they would order from me their new C8 Corvette! Today they took ownership of the 6th Corvette that they have owned, a Torch Red 2022 Corvette coupe with black interior and they even gifted me some very nice wine! Two of the nicest folks you’d ever want to meet are happy C8 owners now! Equipment list: 2LT pkg, GT2 buckets, front lift, magnetic ride, edge red calipers, performance exhaust, CF painted wheels, edge red engine cover composite rockers and low wing spoiler.

~Criswell Chevrolet is fortunate to have a Corvette service lane Mgr that is dedicated to Corvettes/Camaro’s with her team of Mechanics all Corvette certified. Dina Bartolomeo not only has been at Criswell Chevrolet for 22 years but is also a Corvette owner. She attended the C8 dealer driving class and came back amazed at the new mid engine Corvette and immediately got in line to place her order for an Arctic White Corvette…and it’s her daily driver! Kudo’s to Dina for her 22 years of dedicated service to the Chevrolet brand and driving/owning a Corvette!

it living NW of Pittsburgh.

~Last week marked 11 years that my only brother Scott (5 yrs older) had passed and I thought I’d share a story from Fall 2005. Pure celebration, not grieving! Scott was always a Porsche guy so when I took delivery of one of the first 2006 Corvette Z06’s he invited me to play in a charity Golf Tourney in NY State near his home. So I took the 5 hr ride up from Maryland in my brand new 505hp Corvette. The night before the tourney I take him for a very spirited ride through the mountain side of Orange County, NY. Needless to say I enjoyed having him hold on with white knuckles. About a week goes by and he calls me up and this is how the conversation went.

“Hey Mike”
Yes Scott?
“I got a new Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet today”
Very nice Scott enjoy it.
“Hey Mike”
Yes Scott?
“I got it up to 68 mph!”
Very good Scott but do you know it can do much more/go faster?
He goes” but Mike”
Yes Scott?
“That was on my driveway!”

*Take a look at the picture below of his 1,000 yard driveway that meandered through the woods and over a stone bridge that had a stream underneath…to this day I have no idea how he got to that speed in any type of safe manner!
That story cracks me up every time I tell it.

  1. Thanks for the pics of the Shriners’ Corvettes. Not much has been written about the fleets of Corvettes that the Shriners would order. White with red interiors were the norm but in 1962 they ordered them in a Cadillac color, light purple metallic with red interiors.

  2. Chazoo – That’s the one that “stuck out” for me also as I scrolled through the pics. ?

  3. As usual, it’s hard to pick a favorite, but I had to laugh at the small store front shot with the words, “Don’s Speed Shop”! Largest in Canada! Must not been much demand in Canada for speed equipment at the time. Some of the pics beg for more information, that’s what’s so cool about them.

  4. Very cool angle of the wide-body C3 racing Corvette with the “Deschutes County” (Oregon) script on the rear.
