Staci gets her new Corvette...Stingray style for her Anniv./pics
Kody (US Air Force MSGT) was determined to find the right Corvette for his wife as he promised her a new Corvette for her 20th Anniversary...so he was a yr late. Today is their 21st wedding Anniversary and yesterday they drove up from Waldorf, MD and picked out this beauty of a 2LT, 7spd manual Arctic White with Red interior '14 Stingray cpe. They traded in their stick shift 2011 335i that they ordered new while he was stationed in Germany. Here's the back story...they arrive at Criswell for their appt...I ask what they are seeking...we had exactly what they wanted...I get the keys..and so was another salesman getting the same keys...I show them the car and she sits in it...2 minutes later that other salesman takes a CC deposit from California and puts a sold sign in it while we are looking at the Stingray inventory...they are a bit sad...I told them lets see what happens...they leave...go to Starbucks before heading home(90 minute drive)...other deal falls apart...I call his cell....they are still at Starbucks...and rush over to drive her new Anniversary gift home...one that he promised 15 yrs ago to get for their 20th...now 21st Anniv!
and in his own words...this mornings email...

Great people, great car. I was there with Mike finalizing my own deal and saw the whole thing go down. A happier couple couldn't be found. Good luck on that sweet ride

Boy did that guy SCORE!!!!!!!! He stepped up to the plate and went yard by buying his mate a gorgeous AW Stingray. And to top it off he gets to ride shotgun in a gorgeous Vette with a beautiful blond at his side. SCORE indeed.
Way to go DUDE. Your man card is good for life.

Love that "man card good for life" comment!!!
Hope that they didn't spill their coffee on them when the call came in from Mike.
Mike had an intuition here...... and they got theirs before they left for home.
Fun story.
