Default Record amount of deliveries in 24 hrs*PICS**

The following pictures/stories are from the 24 hrs of this past Friday and Saturday. I am usually off Friday but I had half a dozen Stingray's and Z06's getting shipped out and had a Bakers Dozen plus deliveries Saturday(Feb 28th) so I had my Clean up dept on over time.

~Sean N of Chuluota, FL bought a '14 Z51 from me last year and Friday he picked up his 2015 Z06 3LZ, A8, with Spectra Gray wheels that I drop shipped to a Chevrolet dealer near him... He shipped his '14 up to me to trade and his Courtesy delivery of his new Silver/Red Z06 went perfect.



~Mike P of Midland, TX had this stunning Velocity Yellow Z06/Z07
W/A8 trans shipped down to him. Last year he ordered a Red Z51 and flew in to drive it home.





~Mark B of Elk Grove, Calif is anxiously awaiting this 2015 A8 Z06 Convt in Shark Gray/Kalahari. Comp seats with micro fiber inserts gets him the Micro fiber steering wheel shifter and boot.







~I met Jake L of Cave Creek, AZ when I flew in for the Prescott, AZ Corvette show this past September. He factory ordered a Laguna Blue Z06 Convt with A8 trans and loaded. I promised him he would have his new Z drop top by the Spring...next week it will arrive in his driveway. He wanted it PDI'd by our Corvette mechanics and then shipped via Plycar.





~Nothing says Corvette like Red-Red...



~James D of Haymarket, VA bought a Callaway convt from me a few years ago and he ordered this loaded A8 Z06/Z07 in Night Race Blue Metallic and full length Stripes. It doesn't get more loaded then this Z.




~This Black and Kalahari Z06 is headed to New England.




~This Black with Adrenaline Red Z06 is being delivered to PA.




~Bj of Suwanee, GA Factory ordered this stunning Laguna Blue Stingray Convt and will be picking it up at the Museum in a couple of weeks.



~Vince of Staten Island, NY ordered this Silver and Kalahari Convt
Z06/Z07. Yesterday it got shipped to his home via Plycar. If you haven't seen this color combo yet...it pops!







~Frank and Tomoko of Henderson, Nevada Factory ordered this classic Arctic White and Red Interior Convt. The wanted to make a trip of it so they flew in to Wash DC for a tour and then yesterday picked up their new Stingray and headed West via the highway. Luggage fit fine and first stop is Tenn.






~Ed M of Colora, MD bought a Red '13 GS cpe from me two years ago and yesterday he traded it in on a new 2015 Stingray Z51 Shark Gray Cpe. He arrived at 7:30am and I was ready for him.




~Ron B of Fairfax Station, VA was referred in to me by another recent Stingray customer. Ron factory ordered this Shark Gray 3LZ Kalahari
Z51 cpe.







~Robert P of Waldorf, MD ordered a Crystal Red 2015 Z06 with Black Comp seats and A8 trans. Rob and Ron were taking delivery at the same time so we took some group pics.










~Joe B of Blacksburg, VA factory ordered a '14 Stingray Z51 from me last yr and put 13,000 miles on it before trading it in yesterday for a '15 Z06 in Black with Adrenaline Red interior. He plans to use it every day possible and even track it a bit. Joe lives 3 1/2 hrs away and drove up in the afternoon and headed back in the evening...He had a perma grin the whole time and even brought me 4 boxes of golf ***** as a thank you gift.






~I delivered some non Corvettes yesterday as well but I will spare you those pictures. A family that had bought an Equinox from me two yrs ago bought two new Equinox's from me yesterday...because last week they had a Giant tree fall on their house and three cars!!

~Throwback picture...1960 stored in a garage.


~Today I am resting as tomorrow the deliveries start all over. Save the Wave!

Default Mike is the REAL DEAL

After wasting almost a month with another (supposedly) large volume Corvette Salesman I got frustrated and cancelled my order with him and went to Mike and he has been GREAT. Gave a deposit on a Tuesday and Friday he emailed a 1100 preorder delivery number and could not be happier with Mike and the process. As busy as Mike is he will always call you back and is very patient and helpful. Thanks again Mike. Your Texas friend with the RED/RED Z51. Mark

Mike, as a Corvette owner myself, along with other members, I really enjoy reading your threads and especially seeing the pics that you post with the Vettes and their new owners.....doesn't get any better than that for those customers....always puts a on my face.
to you!!!
If I ever have the opportunity to get another Vette, you will get a call from me.......

I agree, very generous of him. He even had my name put on them.

Default The Boss

Have always been a car buff of all brands, just really liked the Ford products. Had Shelby's, Mach I, 68 & 66 Verts, 2015 Mustang GT (for my daughter) and 70 Boss 302 with all original number matching. Love all the cars. But, the new C7....WOW WOW WOW. Can't wait until she comes in.

Congratulations on the new sales.

You sold many fine looking Vettes. I liked the dual sale picture. A side by side picture of two great colors.

Hopefully, you won't need four dozen Pro V1s this golf season.

I grew up in Silver Spring, Md and used to ride my motorcycle past your dealership all the time on my way to Criswell's motorcycle shops (before they closed them down). Always loved seeing all the vettes and hummers (at the time) lined up out there.

My folks still live in Md but I'm too afraid to stop by now as I would easily get talked into trading in on a new one.

The good thing is when my fellow members find them...they return them to me...personalization has it's benefits.

Really like the idea of having Criswell do the PDI and detail on a C7 that is outbound on Plycar Enclosed Transport.

Yes, it does cost to have it shipped by the best...... BUT, you do save the $500 for the Courtesy Delivery, and you know that Criswell will do it correctly.

Plus, you get your C7 shipped to your front door. AND, no rail car across country to the west coast.

The PDI and detail guys and gals at Criswell should get bonus's for the hundreds of sold order deliveries that Mike cranks out on an annual basis. They must work 24/7, like Mike, to get these deliveries ready for Mike's customers.

Simply mind boggling......
