The first 2020 Corvette Stingray Convertibles were supposed to be headed to customers at this point of the build cycle, but with the shutdown of the plant last month for COVID-19, the drop-tops have been put on hold for the time being…like everything else in our world.
Criswell Chevrolet’s Mike Furman delivers new Corvettes to his customers who come from all across the country to work with the nation’s top individual Corvette seller.
Despite the Corvette Assembly Plant shut down going on a month now due to the coronavirus, Mike is still making new Corvette deliveries to happy customers.

It’s hard to believe that the 2019 Corvette ZR1 and its powerful 755-hp LT5 was a “one and done” model but that’s exactly the way that Chevrolet intended to close out the front-engine era of America’s favorite sportscar by producing the most powerful Corvette ever.
Here’s an excellent send-off for the Corvette ZR1 from Carfection which features a Sebring Orange ZTK Coupe driving through beautiful scenery while the driver Henry discusses the ins-and-out of the C7’s swan song.
Welcome to Quick Shifts! Quick Shifts is a content feature here at CorvetteBlogger featuring links to Corvette and automotive-related stories of interest.

CorvetteBlogger contributor Jeremy Welborn has been spending much of his lockdown time learning about his new 2020 Corvette Stingray Z51 coupe and today he brings us a new video sharing some more tips and tricks he has found like how to put the car into service mode.
Jeremy also admits to struggling with the launch control early on and it’s a mistake we’ve seen others make on YouTube as well.
Seems like a fair trade…
