~November in the Corvette World is one of those months that flies by and before you know it you're toasting Happy New Year. Well November had 41 new Corvettes and 12 used Corvettes get delivered at Criswell and December is looking to equal that number.
The 2018 Corvette Sold Factory orders will be leaving the Corvette Plant this week just as I touch down in LA for the LA Auto Show on Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing so many Corvette friends and customers in California. It will be a whirlwind 24 hours as I travel 3,000 miles out and back. Check out my Corvette Furman Facebook page for full coverage.
~One of my three factory order drawers...under lock and key.
~The Sales Gals out at Spring Mountain Race Track in Pahrump, Nevada had a Gingerbread House making Contest and here is their award winning display.
~The 2019 ZR1 made it's Grand Showing last Tuesday in LA.
~Below are several of the deliveries this week in no particular order...
~Tim T. Of East Setauket, NY came down the other night at 11pm and I met him at Criswell 6:45am to take delivery of his new 2018 Camaro ZL1 1LE. A mere 650HP! Tim and his friend drove down the two trade in’s (both Camaro's that I had sold him) that I gave him sight unseen appraisals for. I had all the paperwork typed up and ready for him so he signed, paid and was on the road by 7:15am! Tim has bought almost 20 Corvettes, Camaro’s and trucks since December 2009 from me!
~On my Christmas list...every customer that purchases a new or used Corvette from me gets a very nice Adam's Polishes gift certificate at delivery courtesy of Adam and I.
~The Frank Class Throwback/Barn Find section...post up which one is your favorite.
~C7 ZR1's out in the wild...
.....My son and I circa 1993...in my 1959 Corvette....

"I sell and ship Nationwide and have done so for 40 years!"
My favorite pics of the week are the deer in the trunk of the C5 and the pics of the ZR1 in Florida (because Florida is my happy place! We will be down there at the end of the month and I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for some ZR1s)
Thanks again for making Sunday mornings fun!
PS-my C7 gets built this week so I'm hoping I'll only have a couple more "C7 less" Sundays on my calendar and then it'll finally be in my garage
I agree with the others that the buck in the trunk of the C-5's is a real gem! Thanks for posting all the great pictures and I hope you sell many more Corvettes for the month of December as well! Thanks for posting the pictures!
Have a good time at the Los Angeles Auto Show. I can't copy the photo just below the Bahama Star one, but that big-fender blue Stingray looks great. Doesn't take anything away tho from the Goodwood Green '67, or the newest, orange, ZR1.
Sorry for the low quality pictures but here are some shots I took of ZR1's in the wild, I came across these 3 last Tuesday here in Naples Florida. They each had manufacturer license plates.

Had the GS out yesturday.Just a nice balance with the 460 horses.Especially on the street.Can't imagine that ZR Feeling of almost 800 hp.Just cruzin to pick up the Pizza order.
Not use to that Nose.I understand why.The opening size will be taking extra time adjusting when it backs out of MY Garage...HA!
Really like the front view of the blue Mako Shark...... with all of the hood vents. Way ahead of it’s time.
41 new C7 Corvettes sold in 30 days???!!!...... your November MONTH of sales would be a great YEAR for 99% of the rest of the nations dealers. And to say nothing of the 12 used Corvette sales.
Whew, that is volume sales right there at Criswell Chevrolet.
In the amount of years you can count on less than 10 fingers, Mike has single handedly put the Criswell Auto Group on the national map of Auto Group dealerships.
You can safely say that no one in the country, west of Washington DC, had EVER heard of the Criswell Auto Group...... prior to 2009.
