Excellent idea. I made this infomercial in one take about 5 months ago...no laughing as I am not used to being on the other side of the camera. No prep work and I had customers waiting so it is what it is. No script just me winging it very fast.

Great story and photos Mike, thank you for sharing.
The yellow GS with the gentleman's black wheels looks sharp!

O.K., now lets hear what all of Furman's customers REALLY have to say!

Love that Plycar transport truck having to re-arrange a Bentley, McLaren, and a Porsche to make room for the C6. The Corvette got tucked in real nice. That carrier definitely runs a clean operation. The interior of that transport is spotless and very professionally layed out.

We were not able to locate this thread at first, and then discovered it was in our Spam File all along. Damn Cable Company here!

Really like that Cyber Gray with the red calipers and red Heritage stripes. Nice combo. Not a big fan of anything red, but Cyber Grey really handles those red accents well.

Our neighbors in Queen Creek, AZ. absolutely stole a great "used" C6 there. What does their experience say about dealing with this Furman character, anyway!!!......everything done in a matter of minutes, sight unseen. Why can't local dealers accomplish these kinds of sales efforts and results......when the customer is standing directly in front of them at their local dealership???!!! SHEESH.

I agree with vette4lyn! Our local dealers, specifically Thoroughbred, wouldn't even let me take a test drive! Instead I did my test drives at Brown and Brown, but they didn't have a car I wanted either. Nobody locally was very helpful and they certainly didn't want to make a deal so I checked out Criswell's inventory and found my car. One email to Mike and we had a deal!! I felt good about sight unseen because Mike is a Vette guy first and a sales guy second. That truck can't get here fast enough. LOL

I can testify to Frank's smile. A couple of friends were waiting for him to get home so we could see it. Very sweet machine. He said his first new corvette was a white 1960 and he had silver stripes painted on it, so he figured his last new one should be the same.

Default Criswell Chevrolet is a great place to buy a Corvette

Howdy Mike,
Great pictures and I am happy to see that you are selling C6 Corvettes like crazy. Awesome Corvettes departing Criswell all because you make it happen Mike.
I will be buying my C7 from you and I just turned 200 miles on my brand new 427.
Thanks for sharing Mike. Thanks for being a Corvette Guy first.
VR,
Fuze

Hey Mike,

How does that poor guy loading vettes into the trailer get OUT of the car once it's loaded? I mean sheesh, it looks like way to tight in there to open the door and get out.

OH, I know, he sits in the car until delivery, unloads it and catches a flight home
