What You're Getting
Up for you bidding pleasure, I have a 1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS convertible. This beauty was specially ordered from the factory with gray leather interior, power mirrors, a 5.0L V-8, an automatic transmission with overdrive, 16" aluminum wheels with wheel locks, air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, cruise control, a black convertible top, and "Pollo II Green Metallic" paint. This car has been my baby for about 9 years, and I'm sad to see her go, but a number of factors are forcing my hand. I bought this vehicle in 2004, and according to the dealer, am the second owner. Incredibly, much of the original paperwork that came with the car including the original owner's manual, the original window sticker, the factory order sheet, delivery inspection certificate, and other bits of paperwork were included when I purchased the vehicle. I even have the cassette tape that was originally included from Chevrolet that goes over "New Vehicle Features" on side 1, and "Radio Controls" on side 2! She has over 234,000 miles on the original engine, which I'll admit, is a lot. But honestly, the car runs so well that it's always been a source of pride to be able to tell someone the mileage. The oil is changed regularly and she uses some, but no too much. The body is in good shape with a few small dings. She's been parked under cover (either under a carport for the first 3 years I had her, or in a garage since then) nearly every night I've owned her. According to the previous owner (who I spoke to after I bought the car) she was in a minor fender-bender, causing minor damage to one of the quarter panels. I've driven this vehicle up and down most of west coast, from Seattle WA, to Los Angles CA, and all the way out to the heart of Texas and to be completely honest, I'd feel comfortable jumping in and doing it again tomorrow.
Stuff I've Done
When I first bought the car, it still had the original AM/FM stereo with a cassette player. I didn't even own a cassette, so I had a new (at that time) Pioneer CD player installed, with a 12-disc CD changer in the trunk. HOWEVER, I still have the original Delco radio that came with the car and it will be included! I also had a Viper car alarm with remote start installed around the same time (more on that below). In the last year I've replaced the seat coverings with a gray vinyl material that looks like leather, but will last longer. The top was replaced in 2011. The original cloth top was showing its age, and the plastic rear window was pretty badly clouded over, so I had the top replaced with a vinyl top that, again, should last much longer. I also replaced the heater core in 2011 and had a mechanic replace the radiator in 2011. I've got a file stuffed with nearly every receipt for anything I've had done to the car, from oil changes to major repairs.

What Needs Attention
I've done my best to care of her, but she's not perfect. The clear coat is failing on nose of the car, as well as on the outside mirrors. The rest of the car has the scratches and nicks expected on a 20 year old paintjob. The cruise control has never worked since I bought it, although the dealer swore it worked when he brought it onto his lot. The air conditioner doesn't blow cold air anymore. I had it recharged several years ago, but it didn't last. I suspect there's a leak in the A/C somewhere, but living on the coast, haven't needed it, so haven't really worried about it. The aluminum wheels have some scrape marks from getting to close to curbs. The car came with a factory alarm that didn't work anymore when I purchased it, so I put in a fancy after-market Viper alarm with remote start. Unfortunately, the alarm didn't take kindly to the coastal air after I moved away from the hot, dry Central California valley. Neither the alarm or the remote start work anymore. The carpet is original, and thus somewhat faded, but since it's gray anyway, it's not particularly noticeable. The front tires are getting close to needing replacement, but the back tires still have plenty of tread. The in-dash CD player has recently developed a habit of not ejecting CD's when the eject button is pushed, but with a 12-disc CD changer in the trunk, that hasn't been much of a problem. And finally, the top leaks. When I had the top replaced, the guy who installed it tore a piece of the weather-stripping where the top seals against the rear deck area behind the passenger-side door. It was a minor tear at first, but putting the top up and down has made it worse. Although I park the car in the garage whenever I'm home, I can't avoid all of the rain showers, and when she's left outside, the floor behind the front passenger seat gets wet along with the floor of the trunk.
Final Conclusions
All in all, you'll be getting a great car. Although I've never entered her in a show, the previous owner did, and he apparently won several awards. With a new coat of paint, and a few other details, I'm sure she could be an award winner again. On more than one occasion I've left the car in a parking lot, only to come back and find someone's business card stuck under the windshield wiper with a note saying "If you ever wanna sell, call me!" but since I never really thought I'd sell this car, I never kept any of them. Even now, she still turns heads! The third generation Camaro body is beautiful and distinct and the convertible top makes this one something extra special and extra rare. Add to that the 25th Anniversary package, and you've got a real collectable. And believe me, there's nothing like driving down the coast, along a twisting mountain road, or cruising those long, straight stretches of California's Interstate 5 with the top down, the sun on your face, and the wind in your hair! Don't let this beauty slip away! :-)

10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon
Thu, Sep 22 2022If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved — dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of “around $30,000.” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.
GM Recalls 218,000 Chevy Aveo Models Over Fire-Prone Lighting
Wed, May 21 2014The recall train keeps on rolling for General Motors. Hot on the heels of its recent 2.4 million-vehicle recall of various models, it's now calling in 218,000 Chevrolet Aveo units from the 2004-2008 model years because they could catch fire. The problem concerns the daytime running light module in the instrument panel. It could overheat, melt and cause a fire. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, "We are aware of some fires," and the company "is still investigating." Adler wouldn't comment about how many fires were reported or when the automaker was first aware of this issue because of the ongoing analysis. However, he said the issue has not caused any injuries or fatalities. GM also doesn't have a fix for the problem with the DRL module yet. The company says in its recall statement to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the remedy "is still under development." Adler wasn't sure when it would be ready, but he said Aveo owners would receive notification in the mail "relatively soon." They will receive a second letter later to schedule the repair. In a separate letter about the Aveo's problem to NHTSA (viewable here as a PDF), GM said its Executive Field Action Decision Committee decided to conduct the recall on May 16. Scroll down for the recall report. RECALL Subject : Daytime Running Light Module Overheating Report Receipt Date: MAY 19, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V261000 Component(s): Potential Number of Units Affected: 218,000 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Chevrolet Aveo vehicles equipped with daytime running lights (DRL). In the affected vehicles, there may be heat generated within the DRL module located in the center console in the instrument panel, which could melt the DRL module. CONSEQUENCE: If the DRL module melts due to the heat generation, it could cause a vehicle fire. REMEDY: The remedy for this recall campaign is still under development. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). General Motors recall number for this campaign is 14236. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles
Thu, Nov 27 2014US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.
