*11/18/18 Corvette deliveries across the USA~Mike Furman@Criswell 301-212-4420*
~March 11th/12th 2019 are the dates for the ZR1 Corvette Furman driving school that I will be attending with 12 of my ZR1 clients out at Ron Fellows Spring Mountain Race Track in Pahrump, Nevada...
and I was just informed that there are spaces available for the Corvette (Stingray/Z51/GS/Z06) driving school for those same dates on the East Track. Come join us!!
Call the gals at Spring Mountain, Melinda or Donna to reserve your spot 1-800-391-6891.
Head Instructor Rick Malone looks over the Tracks from his ever present Motorcycle.
------------------------------------
~Corvette sales have been moving along very good and every once in awhile Mother Nature tends to cause mini havoc for a day.
It pales in comparison to some of the disasters going on such as the Fires in California and the Hurricanes in Florida. Last week I donated
to the Red Cross...how about the Corvette Nation help out in any way that you can. Plenty of ways to show your support/relief.
------------------------------------
~Jim and Jana A. Of Clinton Twp, Michigan were driving their 2015 Corvette Z51 Convt on vacation up and down the East Coast. They heard of me thru the Internet and looked at my 100+ New Corvette inventory on my Corvette dedicated website www.corvettefurman.com
They both spotted this Shadow Gray Metallic 2019 Grand Sport Convt so they headed across the Mountains and arranged a 9am Thursday morning appt. I had the 2019 GS Corvette cleaned Wednesday when the weather was fine and Thursday I appraised their 7 Spd manual 38,000 2015 Corvette. The numbers worked just fine and we shifted their luggage over within minutes. Equipment list on the 19 GS Convt: Auto transmission,machine faced wheels, 2LT Pkg, CF badge Pkg, CF painted mirrors, Carbon fiber exposed weave Instrument panel and Navigation/PDR. Jim and Jana are stayed overnight close by and headed home back to Michigan Friday...
From Jim and Jena: "We'll be sure to keep these pictures in our archive.
Mike...thanks for handling our sale. You and your entire staff's professionalism and friendliness are unmatched!
Now if we can get some warmer weather we'll head home soon. (They made it home just fine on Friday!!)
Take care!"

~Jackie W. of Sammamish, Washington reached out to me approx 10 weeks ago to place his very first Corvette order. Jackie found me on the Internet and even though he lives 2,800 miles away I made the whole communication process and deal seamless. Jackie ordered a 2019 Corvette Z06 Cpe in Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic with code 198 Black interior with microfiber inserts and Red stitching and Red seatbelts. Equipment list includes:3LZ Pkg, Competition Seats, Visible carbon fiber hood insert, Visible CF ground effects Pkg, Visible CF roof panel with body color surround, 7 spd manual transmission, Black Wheels, CF painted mirrors, Z07 Performance Pkg and much more. Jackie just took Courtesy delivery at a Chevrolet dealer near him and he wrote me a note that he was thrilled with the whole process.
~Shane N. of Kingston, NY bought a 2018 GS this past year but really wanted a Z06. So 6 weeks ago I gave him a sight unseen trade value (only 1,800 miles) for a 2019 Z06 factory order and we made the deal to place the order over the phone. This past Thursday
the flat bed truck he hired arrived to switch Corvettes as we had already completed the Paperwork via Fed Ex. Shane’s new Torch Red Z06 has the following equipment: 2LZ Pkg, Jake logo stinger, 7 spd manual transmission, Black Wheels, CF painted mirrors and much more.
~Dean K. of Clermont, Florida was referred to me by my Florida customer and his brother in law Peter. Peter bought his Silver 17 Corvette Z06 from me last year so Dean checked out my inventory on my corvette dedicated web site www.corvettefurman.com and found the perfect 2019 GS Cpe in Admiral Blue with Kalahari interior. I gave Dean a sight unseen Trade value on his Yellow 4LT 2008 Z06 and the deal was made. Friday they drove the trailer up 900 miles from Florida and Saturday morning they were in and out within the hour. Dean’s new Grand Sport Cpe has Auto transmission, 2LT Pkg, Chrome Wheels and Navigation/PDR.
This is Dean’s 3rd Corvette! 2000, 2008 and now 2019.
~Ralph R. of Sykesville, MD was referred to me by my insurance agent who also happens to be my Corvette customer. Ralph is looking for a White 59 Corvette but wanted something to enjoy more frequently so 6 weeks ago he factory ordered an Arctic White 2019 Stingray Convt. Equipment list includes: Auto trans, 2LT Pkg, Black Wheels, Navigation/PDR and Black top/interior. He about cried when he first viewed it outside my office! Ralph is as happy as an 8 yr old kid on Christmas morning.

What a fun Sunday delivery thread. So glad to see you are continuing to sell many new Corvettes. Great delivery backstories!
I thoroughly enjoyed the old Corvettes. So many great one to see and choose from. I especially like these two.
Thank you very much Mike.

Reward Stamps
Saw the “Blue Chip stamps given here” sign hanging behind the gas pump...... must have been an east coast or mid-west thing back in the day.
Out here on the west coast we had “green stamps” given to customers for purchases.
