Happy Easter! It seems early this year but maybe that will help end Winter in the Northeast. One day it's 70 degrees and the next it's 40 and windy.
I only have one thing to share this week and it's a quote from Steve Jobs.
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” Steve Jobs
I love what I do and where I do it. Only 18 more Corvette deliveries to reach 4,000!

~October 1st/2nd 2018 are the scheduled planned dates for the 3rd Annual Furman Corvette driving class at Spring Mountain Race Track in Pahrump, Nevada. I can't wait to do it all over again!



~Ken F. Of Frederick, MD placed his Factory order for a Sebring Orange and Kalahari 2019 Z06 Cpe to match his 1973 Orange and tan Corvette that he bought in 1974. Ken’s Orange Z06 replaces the 2,800 mile 2017 Grand Sport that he had ordered from me last year. The new Z06 is a 7spd manual with 2LZ Pkg, chrome badges, chrome wheels, black calipers, Navigation/PDR and much more. This is Ken’s 4th Corvette and he still has the 73 with all original paint!
In Ken's own words..."What a great car. You make the whole process so smooth and it's great doing business by keeping me in new Corvettes. I am so glad to have a new Sebring Orange '19 ZO6 and you can hear me laugh all the way in Gaithersburg every time I start this beast. See you at Spring Mountain. Good luck getting to #4000!"
Ken



I had to take a picture of this color combo when it arrived. Looks great.











Say goodbye to the Admiral Blue 2017 GS and hello to the Sebring Orange Z06.



















~Andrew S. Of Rockville, MD has bought his Corvettes from me the past few years and his warranty expires pretty darn quick. Genovation Cars is the name of his company and he turns these Corvettes into an Electric edition to the tune of 800 HP and 700 foot lbs of torque! His last Electric Corvette is in the Guinness Book of records! Today he bought a brand new 2017 Grand Sport Cpe in Watkins Glen Gray with Black Competition Seats and microfiber inserts. Equipment list includes 2LT Pkg, Black Wheels, Z07 Pkg With Carbon ceramic brakes, CF badge Pkg, CF instrument panel, Auto transmission, Navigation/PDR, GS Heritage Pkg and GS Heritage CF full length racing stripe.

















~Dean C. Of Broadlands, Virginia called me 6 weeks ago and placed his factory order for a 2019 Admiral Blue Grand Sport Cpe with 7spd manual trans. His other garage spot has his 2007 Monterey Red Z51 Cpe that he races. Over 100,000 miles on the 2007!
Dean’s new Grand Sport is a 1LT Pkg with Red calipers and Black Wheels!

















~Clyde R. Of Freeland, MD Factory ordered a new 2019 Z06 Cpe to be specially prepared by Callaway and now it's at ProForm for a clear bra installation. Clyde ordered a 2LZ Pkg, Comp Sport Seats, Auto trans, Visible CF ground effects, CF instrument panel, Navigation/PDR and Z07 Pkg! This Watkins Glen Gray Z06 is seriously fast!! Thank you Rob Freeman of Pro Form for supplying these great pictures.

Thanks for another great week Mike! I hope you have a great Easter Sunday too. And, good luck reaching #4000 in the very near future - what a HUGE accomplishment. Does Chevrolet track your sales?

one of the split window coupes is my favorite this week.

Happy Easter Mike Thanks for the Cool pictures as always

Thanks as always for sharing and next week you will be sharing number 4000.

bigblock427

Getting close to 4,000 I wonder the what the model and color will be?

At the rate you sell Vettes it will be two to three weeks until you hit 4,000.

Have a nice Easter.

There were several really good pictures of mid year Corvettes. I will go with one of my favorite colors on a mid year and an Oklahoma plate.

Happy Easter to everyone!!

My favorite is the picture of the rear end of the blue C3 with "L88" on the license plate. The runner-up has to be the yellow C3 shown from a high-angle shot. Both are great examples of the 3rd Generation Corvette.

Steve Garrett

Good morning buddy and happy Easter. Plus, happy Passover to our Jewish Corvette owners as well.

And.....it's April Fools Day-the trifecta!


As I always love the older pictures, I can't help but to celebrate your 4,000 Corvette sale. This is something that looks like it will happen possibly this week or next week then. A heartfelt congratulations on such a HUGE milestone!

Happy Easter to you and yours, Mike. Thanks for another great Sunday thread.
I went with this picture. Great image of that point in time. You don't see those gas stations anymore. Looks like you will reach the 4,000th sale pretty soon.
