Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for Jan 26th

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.

These Sunday delivery posts are always a bit more fun when you know the person who is taking delivery of their new car. In this post, that customer was also the salesman! Congratulations to Mike Furman on his latest Corvette! He sold his VIN 001 2024 Corvette Z06 and is now driving the VIN 1000 2025 Corvette E-Ray.

Mike becomes yet another Z06 owner to “trade-up” to the AWD Corvette E-Ray and we know he’ll love it. In addition to sharing his own delivery pics, we also got a great collection of throwback and vintage photos. Let us know your favorites, as I’ll be casting my vote for “Super Girl.”

You can see all of Mike’s posts and pictures through the week on his CorvetteFurman Facebook Page.

~ Ladies First! GM design chief Harley J. Earl assembled a team of women in the 50s to bring this unique Corvette to life. Many creative innovations are in this 1958 Corvette.

~The #1, #2 and #3 Cunningham Corvettes at Le Mans in 1960. Chevrolet Corvette #3 finished in eighth place overall and first in the 4000-5000 class.

“To establish the sports car, you have to race it.”
~ Zora Arkus-Duntov.

~In 2019 Chevrolet produced 2,953 ZR1 Corvettes, of that number 86 were produced in Blade Silver for the 2019 ZR1 coupe…and as chance would have it 2 of the 86 are in our Service Lane today for routine maintenance! I didn’t run the vins but I delivered 54 total 2019 ZR1’s of the 2,953 built.

~I enjoy the before and after video of this 33 mile 1982 Collectors Edition Coupe. 25,407 Corvettes built in 1982 and 6,759 were the Collector edition. Makes me wonder why this particular Corvette was driven home and parked as you see it in this video. C3 is the only generation Corvette that I haven’t owned but this is a cool color combo, Silver Beige with Silver Beige leather.

~Kent and Nancy K. of Elma, Washington reached out from 2,900 miles away now for the 2nd time to factory order a new Corvette. Last time it was a 2021 Z51 and this time I drop shipped for courtesy delivery a Sebring Orange 2025 Corvette Z06 Coupe. Kent’s local Chevrolet dealer in Olympia, WA did the courtesy delivery on my behalf. Equipment: 2LZ pkg, GT2 buckets, Carbon flash dual racing stripes, body color accents, black exhaust tips, black spider wheels and much more.

~After driving my Eray home in 6 degree weather this past week…”it is like a Magic Carpet Ride”…so smooth in every way…~ #27 Corvette ownership occurred this week for… me. My very first Corvette was a Black 1959 and my 27th is Vin 1000, a 2025 Riptide Blue Corvette ERAY Convertible with Black interior and Blue custom stitching/ Tension Blue seatbelts. I’ve driven the ERAY in several different states over the past couple of years in varied conditions and came away very impressed as it is a true GT touring sports car. I feel the Eray blends performance, superb road characteristics and has the finest of appointments. It’s engineering and styling reflect the advanced thinking at Chevrolet.

Equipment list: 3LZ pkg, Bright Polished Forged Aluminum Wheels, Tension Blue Seat belts, Stealth interior trim, Carbon Flash painted roof/Nacelles, Chrome Badges, Front Lift, Carbon Fiber interior trim, Jake Logo Center caps, Microfiber seat inserts/steering wheel, Blue Custom stitching and more. The pictures inside the showroom were taken before the Criswell Corvette service team pre delivery inspected my Eray. I will install the Jake logo center caps when they arrive this week. *So there you have it, my own delivery post.

*The very first Eray Corvette owners school will be held at Spring Mountain with me and 5 of my Eray customers in attendance along with 4 classes filled with my Corvette and Z06 clients. March 30-April 3 Pahrump, Nevada

~ This week’s Top Corvette Barn finds and throwback pictures from around the globe!

Congratulations! Mike on your new E-Ray. Did you sell your VIN 001 Z06 to Mr. Hendrick to add to his collection?

Without a doubt the pic of Super Girl and her Corvette are my favorite this week too. I also like the picture of the pretty black cat on the black C3 even though that’s not cool!

I also like the pic of Super Girl! Also, I like the photo of the kids admiring the engine in the ’63 Grand Sport at Nassau Speed Week!

By the way, Mike, congratulations on your 2025 E-Ray! That is the car to own in my opinion!
