1995 Camaro Convertible Manual Transmission Original Owner New Factory Engine on 2040-cars
Redondo Beach, California, United States
I am the original owner of this car. It was custom ordered by me as a General Motors Employee in 1994 and received at Champion Chevrolet in Manhattan Beach, California in January 1995. It has been in California its entire life and is rust free. The paint is still shinny. The car has a Black Cloth Top with a Grey Leather interior. I ordered the car with a 5 speed manual transmission since I like to shift for my self. I am recently retired and have too many cars and not enough storage space. With sadness I have decided to let this one go and let someone else enjoy it. The car is all original with no modifications except for an alarm system and locking gas cap.
This is a very sharp looking convertible. In a few years this car will be considered a classic and will appreciate considerably. It is a great investment. The 6 cylinder engine runs on regular gas and is more economical than its 8 cylinder brother. This car has always passed the California smog test, most recently, late last year. In Jan. 20th 2003 with 101,079 miles the engine blew a head gasket and rather than have the gasket replaced, I replaced the entire engine with a new factory engine (this is a new engine not a remanufactured one) at a cost of $5,000. In the pictures is the paper work and receipts for the new engine. The car presently has 129,357. This means the new engine has 28,278 miles on it. I have the boot (goes in when top goes down) in new condition with the carrying case. I used it one time. Included are all of the maintenance and repair records from day one. The driver side window sticks sometimes and should be looked into. The drivers side needs a sun visor. Sometimes I hear a squeal in one of the wheels it may be a wheel bearing that needs replacement. I has been this way for a long time. In the past 5 years I have driven this car around the block twice a week to keep it running. The car always starts but you may consider replacing the battery since it is very old. The plastic front bumper has a crack it it. If you put the mask on it hides it. The rear bumper is scratched and has a small vertical crack in the plastic which do not show in the pictures. One of the two power unlock and power window switches is broken. I replaced one a few years back for $5. The tires are in great shape with lots of tread life remaining. I have a lifetime alignment policy with Firestone. The glove box sometimes opens if you go over a bump. The leather interior is in good shape with the exception of the drivers side bolster (see picture). The cloth convertible top is original and has no tears and is still in good shape. There is a slight discoloration along the top in the material (see pictures). These factory tops were made in Germany and of amazing quality. The right rear quarter panel has a few small dings and scratches (see picture) near where the antenna goes. An indigent man on a bicycle hit it in a parking lot. The antenna is in the trunk. I take it off to put the car cover on. The radio, CD and all speakers work. The cruise control works. The convertible top works. The A/C needs to be re-charged. I live near the beach we don't use air conditioning around here. I have the California Title in Hand. The car has been continuously registered since I bought it in 1995. |

Weekly Recap: Autonomous driving goes commercial in Nevada
Sat, May 9 2015Nevada granted Daimler Trucks North America the first license to run an autonomous commercial vehicle on public roads in the United States Tuesday, marking another milestone in the technology's rapid advancement. Gov. Brian Sandoval and Daimler truck chief Wolfgang Bernhard promptly used the license to lap Highway 15 near Las Vegas in a newly revealed Freightliner Inspiration Truck. It was a clear signal that autonomous driving is big-rig reality, though it's still a long way from widespread use. Nevada certified two of Daimler's Freightliner Inspiration Trucks, which use the company's Highway Pilot system with a stereo camera, radar, and lane-keeping collision-prevention features to regulate the brakes and steering. The radar component has a long-range sensor that can cover 820 feet at an 18-degree angle and a shorter-range unit that stretches 230 feet at a 130-degree angle. The Inspiration trucks are based on the existing Freightliner Cascadia Evolution model used on US roads. In addition to the autonomous technologies, it also has futuristic design cues, including blue lighting in the front and a new hood and grille. While there are only two Freightliner Inspiration trucks in existence, Daimler expects to bring the Highway Pilot system into mass-produced big rigs by 2025, in time to capitalize on the market's predicted growth. The German truckmaker predicts the global hauling market will triple by 2050, and the United States will be a key part of that growth. Trucks carry 69.1 percent the nation's domestic freight tonnage and hauled 9.7 billion tons of freight in 2013, according to the American Trucking Association. Daimler expects autonomous driving to augment this growth, and perhaps evolve the role of the truck driver. Still, the company points out autonomous tech is not meant to replace drivers, but to assist them and relieve fatigue and monotony on long hauls. The driver has to stay in control for passing, in city traffic, and when hooking up the trailer. The company said autonomous driving also offers the potential for improved fuel economy – tests showed a five-percent gain – and lower maintenance costs. Daimler also said the technology could reduce congestion on the road. Much of this is attributable to the constant flow of traffic, which is aided by autonomous driving. While the benefits are becoming increasingly apparent, autonomous technology is still met with skepticism.
GM expected to debut two new crossovers at Detroit Auto Show
Thu, Dec 15 2016Next month, General Motors is expected to debut two new crossovers at the North American International Auto Show. That's according to Automotive News and The Wall Street Journal, which reports that the successors to the aging Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Terrain will finally make their debut. The two crossovers have been on sale since 2009 and 2010 respectively and are due for updates as the competition has newer models on the market. Both crossovers play in growing market segments where sales success is crucial for the respective brands. GM, and the automotive industry as a whole, has been shifting its focus towards crossovers in the last few years. The Traverse and the Terrain are some of the oldest SUVs on the market and are in dire need of an update. GMC's Acadia, the former corporate clone to the Traverse (and Buick Acadia), switched to a new platform in 2016. And the Terrain's platform-mate, the Chevrolet Equinox, was revealed a few months ago. Both the new Chevy and GMC models are expected to go on sale late in 2017 as 2018 models. Look for a follow up to the Traverse's sister, the Buick Enclave, to make an appearance soon.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
