Default Delivered Corvette #3,000 today, Stingray joins his 1974 Jaguar E/pics

July 26th 1978 I sold Cassius De la Victoria of Westwood, NJ his Corvette...and nearly 426 months later Richard from Potomac, MD took delivery of his 2014 Stingray Z51 3LT Convt in Limerock Green Metallic with Kalahari top and interior. In between I delivered 2,998 other Corvettes...any way you do the Math that's a ton of Corvettes! 3,000 is a huge milestone and Richard didn't know it until he walked in at 10am this morning. Our Marketing Mgr arranged for pictures and video to be taken and Richard was a good sport being involved. Richard drove home and parked his new Stingray next to his 1974 Jaguar E type that he recently restored...it was his Fathers car.
Enjoy the pictures....
***and this Friday~ the TV Show from Bravo Network- "Newlyweds" will be here at Criswell Chevrolet filming one of the Newlyweds buying a new Corvette from me. They requested me somehow and I just signed 10 pages of Network release forms this morning. I will let everyone know when this show gets aired on TV.
Several years back the movie "Borat" was filmed here, maybe this will be my 15 seconds of fame...haha. Stay tuned!

See the 3000th delivery video at this link:











































While I will always be a Corvette guy, I just wanted folks to know I can give you the same professional, honest customer service on a Callaway Suburban or Tahoe, Viper, SRT, Maserati, GTR or any of the new and used vehicles in the Criswell Automotive family. I am happy to assist with anything we sell. http://criswellcorvette.com/mike_furman.aspx

Congratulations Mike!!!! And to the new owner of that beautiful Limerock Green Stingray as well. That is surly a looker! Mike I always love reading your posts and seeing all the pictures and happy customers at delivery. I look forward to many healthy years of corvettes and buying a stingray from you in the future. (I am thoroughly enjoying my 13 60th convertible at the moment) You surly are an outstanding man and never hesitate to strike up conversation with me when I am there for service and your depth of knowledge and facts about corvettes is surly unsurpassed in the industry in my books.

Wow, very pretty car. I'm not a fan of the C7 but that car is nice. Maybe I'll change my way of thinking.
