Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for Oct 5

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.

Hey, thanks for joining us this Sunday. Mike is back from spending a week out at Spring Mountain where he hosted owner classes for his Z06, Stingray, and E-Ray customers. If you were out there with Mike, we know you had a great time! Mike has several new deliveries for us and then he gets into his throwback and vintage pics for this week’s photo gallery. Go a favorite? Let us know in the comments below!

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

~9/30/25~The C8 Corvette Z06 owners school is in the books here at Ron Fellows Spring Mountain racetrack here in Pahrump, Nevada. Fun was had by all and they came away with a better understanding of what the Z06 is capable of and what they are capable of while driving their Corvette C8 Z06, which in my opinion is a world class sports car. Next up Wednesday and Thursday will be Eray and Stingray owners school. Stay tuned!

~10/2/25~Closed out another few sessions at Spring Mountain for the Ron Fellows Corvette Owners school. Just a mere 50 sessions where I attended with my customers from all over the globe. Enjoy the pics from the last days here in Pahrump, Nevada. Thank you to everyone at Spring Mountain for the 7 day hospitality, fun was had by all!

~ Thursday at the Las Vegas Airport as I was walking to my gate and so was Paul Lescisin. Paul is a Fleet Mgr/Corvette salesman for a large Auto Group for the past 26 years. From 25 feet away he recognized me from not only my Sunday delivery stories that get posted on the Corvette Blogger, but he had written me many years ago with a question about a corvette order that he was doing for a customer. He said he was shocked that on that long ago day he remembered that I answered his email in under 3 minutes. We spoke Thursday for about 10 minutes before departing for our respective Flights out of Nevada. We took a picture together and I gifted Paul one of my Corvette Furman Criswell Chevrolet hats that I had in my carry bag. Below is his email that he sent me this morning.

Hello Mike: “Thank you very much for taking the time to say hello at the Harry Reid Las Vegas Airport today. I have followed you on CorvetteBlogger for several years and thoroughly enjoy your Sunday posts. Your success in the retail automotive business is second to none and it was a great pleasure to meet you. I have been a Corvette enthusiast my entire life (attached is a picture of my 2019 C7 – I always wanted a manual transmission), and to spend a few minutes discussing the business with you was great. I sell Corvette’s at the Bannister Auto Group in Chilliwack, BC ( East of Vancouver) and to hear your perspective on the sales process and what has made you so successful was very much appreciated.”
Thank you again for your time.
Respectfully,
Paul Lescisin
Fleet Manager
Bannister Automotive Group
45930 Airport Rd, Chilliwack, BC

~So as I always say, Chance favors the prepared mind. Glad I had a Criswell hat to gift Paul.

~Saturday 6:45am 10/4/25~First 4 of many for today. Stay tuned for Corvette delivery extravaganza today and this week, month…rest of the year!

~Patti and Ken M. of Easton, Maryland are in the Annapolis Corvette Club along with me. They checked out my Riptide Blue Corvette at the Annapolis Corvette show in August and placed their factory order as they both approved of Riptide Blue for their 2026 Convertible with Sky cool gray/Black interior. Absolutely wonderful folks now have two incredible Blue Corvettes in their garage as this one joins their 1966 427!

Equipment on 2026: 2LT, GT2 buckets, chrome badges, front lift, Z51 and bright Polished 15 spoke aluminum wheels!

~Ray B. of Pottstown, Pennsylvania pulled off the ultimate surprise to everyone in ear shot at the Carlisle show in August. Ray had ordered his Arctic White 2026 Corvette Convertible with me and then a week later brought his grandson Aiden to the Carlisle event. So right there in front of everyone Ray announced that he was not going to trade in his 2004 Corvette…as he is gifting the 2004 Black Corvette to his grandson Aiden! Everyone let out a loud cheer and I took pictures that sunny day in August to match up today’s delivery pictures. Equipment: Red interior, 2LT, body color accents, performance exhaust, low rear spoiler and much more. *One of my favorite delivery stories from start to finish.

~Leann Z. of Lothian, Maryland and her husband Clay have been following me on the Internet for 25 years and both have bought several Corvettes from me. Today Leann took delivery of a brand new Blade Silver 2026 Corvette Eray Convertible with Sky cool gray/Medium Ash gray interior which comes with Orange stitching and Orange seatbelts. This Eray is a stunner! Equipment: 3LZ, chrome badges, front lift, scrape armor grille and much more.
*Leann handmade from scratch an Apple Pie that you will see in the pictures! Incredible. Thank you very much.
**Leann and Clay have been to Spring Mountain racetrack with me 3 times and Spring 2026 will be #4!

~Stew Z. of Gaithersburg, Maryland and I have been friends for 35 years and today he took delivery of his very first new Corvette, he had owned a 1970 Corvette back in the day. Stew factory ordered an Arctic White 2026 Corvette Convertible with two tone Sky Cool gray/Black interior. I told Stew he ordered a “White Tuxedo”. A very fitting nickname for this beauty. I told him to order the Red seat belts for a slash of color. Equipment: 2LT, GT2 buckets, stealth interior, front lift, edge red calipers, 5 spoke black aluminum wheels, low rear spoiler, performance exhaust, splash guards and much more.
