Army Major gets his C7 Z06 and many other Corvette deliveries 5/27/18-Mike Furman****
~The Indy 500 is todays Race...one that I have never seen in person but have enjoyed since the early 70's...one of these days I will get there. Of course the Pace Car again for this years race is the Corvette, ZR1 Corvette that is. 15th year that the Corvette has been chosen as the Pace Car.
~OPEN INVITE~July 25th and 26th at Ron Fellows Spring Mountain Race Track...sign up now as My October class is already booked. (Please pass this on to all Corvette enthusiasts and friends)
~Summer School is back in session...back by popular demand...The Corvette Furman driving experience at Ron Fellows Spring Mountain Race Track in Pahrump, Nevada.
*July 25th/26th* I will be having a class of any 20 Corvette owners...all you have to do is call Melinda or Donna and tell them you would like to be at the Inaugural Furman Summer session. First come first serve.
They will answer all your questions and sign you up for the Summer Special! You drive the exact Corvette you own as there is 135 new Corvettes on site and maintained daily!...7spd manual/ Auto trans...Corvette Grand Sport or Z06. (My 3rd annual Fall Class sold out in one week!! October 1/2 so don't wait)
Mike Furman’s Summer School is July 25-26. The 2-Day Summer Corvette Owner’s Schools will include 2-night stay, 1 dinner for 2 and a 16gb SD card. Costs only $1,000 with a valid VIN (New Corvette owner within 1 year) . The Summer session gets a $350 added value. Call Melinda or Donna 1 800 391 6891 and they will explain all the particulars. www.corvetteownersschool.com
~ Ernesto A. Of Valley Cottage, New York contacted me two weeks ago and scheduled an appt. last week. He paid off his 2009 Jetstream Blue Z06 and was on the hunt for a C7 Z06. I had a 140 new Corvettes to choose from and he picked out a new Racing Yellow 2017 Z06 Cpe with 7 spd manual trans. This loaded Z06 also came equipped with Competition Seats, Visible Carbon fiber roof, J57 Ceramic Brake rotors, Yellow calipers, Black Wheels, CF painted mirrors and Navigation/PDR. I’d say the Major chose wisely!
~In Tim's own words...(New Corvette Furman customer from last week)
Hi Mike,
"My Corvette arrived Saturday afternoon. No issues at all with
Plycon Trucking.........in fact a little storm popped up and he waited 15 minutes to unload it. My old man ordered me to "get the hose out" as soon as I got up to top of driveway. So we cleaned it up and by then roads dried off and he and I went for a spin. He was pretty shocked how smooth the ride was...........and I was pretty damn happy. Puts a little grin on your face driving it for sure........it was like Christmas morning and I was 12 years
old.
I appreciate your patience with my questions. I also appreciate the advice without dismissing my many emails. It is my first Corvette and I can understand why you sell so many because, although we hadn't met - you never rushed me and were really attentive with responses. Your reputation that I found on the Corvette Forum is justified. I hope to meet you in person
someday............maybe when my dad buys one from you.. lol."
Thank you again.
Stay well,

~“Kit” R. of Anoka, Minnesota placed his factory order with me 8 weeks ago. Kit wanted our Corvette certified technicians to do the PDI and then Plycon Trucking to ship it the 1,100 miles via enclosed trailer. Thursday morning the paperwork/payment process was completed thru Fed Ex and two hours later the Plycon truck arrived to deliver it to Kit’s driveway. This new 2019 Blade Silver Grand Sport Corvette has black interior, 2LT Pkg, Competition Seats, Satin Black full length racing stripes, Navigation/ PDR and 7 spd manual transmission.
~Markus S. Of Baltimore, MD has bought Corvettes from me before so he is well aware of the drill. Get here early Saturday and you will move swiftly. I gave him a sight unseen appraisal for his Lexus on Wednesday and today he showed up at 9:15am and was back on the road in his new Blade Silver 2019 Stingray Cpe by 9:50am!
Equipment list includes 7Spd manual, 1 LT Pkg, and Performance exhaust.
~Anthony C. Of Cortlandt Manor, NY was referred to me by Dr Raj who has bought a couple of Corvettes from me and I sense a third coming soon. Anthony factory ordered this Watkins Glen Gray 2019 Stingray with Auto transmission, CF badges and 1LT Pkg. Today was pick up day of his 2nd Corvette, his 1st was a C4! His Red C4 is now sold to his cousin.
As an 8yr old Anthony dreamed of owning a new Corvette...now it's reality.
Fun was had as always.
They brought me a gift.
~Anthony And Jamie H. Of Arlington, Tenn bought a stick shift black 2017 Z06 from me last year but in between then and now his old war injuries are effecting his capabilities to work the clutch. Today he came in and traded a 1LT Stick for a fully loaded 3 LZ with Auto trans and you could sense his relief. Anthony chose an Arctic White Z06 with two tone Red/black interior, Visible carbon Fiber roof, J57 Ceramic brakes, CF painted mirrors and Red seat belts. Thank you for your Service!
~John S. Of Glendora, California picked out of stock this Watkins Glen Gray 2017 Z06 to be shipped the 2,800 miles to his home in California. John has already referred a friend that just ordered a new Corvette from me this past week. John’s new Z06 is equipped with Competition Seats, J57 Ceramic brakes, Auto trans, chrome wheels, Navigation/PDR and 2LZ Pkg. Plycon Trucking picked it up here at Criswell and dropped it off at John’s driveway.

Congratulations to the new Corvette owners! Nothing like that feeling of driving a new C7 off the lot at Criswell and rowing through the gears. I know I will never forget that day when I became a first time Corvette owner with my new 2017 Stingray almost 18 months ago.
Out of the throwback photos, the best one this week is probably the white C3 with the newlyweds. First runner-up is the rear view of the 1990s C4 ZR1 coupes. Second runner-up has to be the 1963 coupe that obviously needs some TLC and some new paint. That car has potential to be beautiful once again.
Enjoy this Memorial Day weekend and take a moment to silently thank those who made the ultimate sacrifice. All gave some, but some gave all.
