Default 2 Stingray Z51 deliveries yesterday- as told in customers own words/pics

I was expecting both Rick and John's Stingrays to be on a truck from Bowling Green...I called them both the moment they arrived yesterday and both high tailed it to Criswell as they knew Snow was on its way today. Here are their own words and pictures.

John G and his wife Jill came over from Luray, VA which is approx. 2 hrs away. John had special ordered a Z51 Convt in Torch Red with 7spd manual. This is his first Corvette since he owned a 1961 Corvette...ya think Corvette has changed a bit in 53 yrs

Mike,

"It made all the difference to have my new "baby" home under a car cover in the garage when we are expecting numerous inches of snow today.

"My father was an executive for GM and was an engineer at Saginaw Steering Gear and Rochester Products where is helped develop the first GM fuel injection (which he placed on our 1957 Chevy wagon and my older brother went out and raced it and blew up the motor). I have been a GM guy all my life and own a Chevy truck, Volt and now the Corvette. I just want to say your trust and wonderful attitude was the best buying experience I have had with a dealer and I have bought a lot of new cars in my 70 years as I never trusted used cars.

Feel free to quote me in any advertising and you may use me as a reference if need be."

Mike Furman - "Thank you for a great experience."

John and Jill G Luray, VA











~~~
Next Rick had come over from Port Deposit, MD...he too couldn't wait to trade in his 65,000 mile 2010 Camaro RS Cpe on his super Cool looking Torch Red with Red interior Z51 cpe...7spd manual of course!

Mike,

"I wanted to thank you for helping me though my C7 purchase and providing excellent customer service. The car drives like a dream and turns heads everywhere.

I couldn't be happier! (Unless of course it wasn't snowing right now) "

Rick









Rick was smart enough to apply for his tags and had them registered to his Camaro so we transferred them for him!



So there you have yesterdays deliveries of two Torch Red beauty's with emailed words from my customers today.

Too funny, an Oregon customer around Christmas time said I was more popular then Santa when I would call to tell them that their new Stingray has been built!

Both beautiful cars, but that Torch red Convertible is stunning. Best of luck to both of you, and Thanks again Mike for sharing some of these great stories.

I guess once a farmer you never retire. John and Jill are great people.
