For sale is a 2001 Camaro SS. It is a gem! It has 16K babied and pampered miles. It has never been to the track, but puts down 465 rear wheel horsepower!
To find a nicer 2001 Camaro SS Z-28, you will need a time machine. The car is extremely clean. Exterior, interior and even the undercarriage. It is never driven in rain.

It doesn't come out of the garage on a cloudy day. The axle tubes gloss black and clear coated the rear differential so none of those components would get any rust.
The original owner was a 50 year old (at the time) gentleman who sold it to get his wife a C5 Corvette.

The motor and suspension are completely stock, so it is a good car for someone looking for something less "hardcore" than a fully modded race car.
It could be a daily driver if you really wanted it to be, but the car is simply way too nice for that.

The car has been modified with a Vortech V9G supercharger kit and has THE PROTOTYPE air lid from Spectacle Solutions for 4th gen LS1 F-bodies running the Vortech.
It also has a 2004 ZO6 MAF and related couplers as well as all supporting mods to make the supercharger kit work great (fuel pump, injectors etc).

It also has a SPEC stage 3 clutch and pressure plate to hold the increased power,but the transmission, driveshaft, and rear end are stock.
Therefore flogging it down the quarter mile is not a good idea, but "spirited" highway driving is very fun.

The upside is that the car rides very gentle and smooth and aside from the blower whine you don't know you are in such a powerful car until you nail the throttle.
The exhaust still has stock manifolds and catalytic converters!

The factory Y pipe has been replaced with an SLP Y pipe and the rear muffler has been deleted and straight pipe welded in a "D" shape in the back.
It is tastefully done and the car definitely has an exhaust note but it not obnoxiously loud.

Super loaded! Leather, T-tops, power everything, CD changer in the trunk, Traction Control with SLP reversal switch (defaults traction control to "off" rather than "on" when you start the car).

The car has never been bumped, never been painted (aside from the underside of the hood to finish out the supercharger install - looks great).
It has never spent a night outside in it's life. It is either in the garage or parked where I can see it at a car show, etc.

FRESH General Extreme tires, with no more than 2500 miles on them. They replaced the original F1's which still had plenty of tread, but I didn't trust them any longer due to age.

I have the original window sticker and an entire folder full of documentation to include the Vortech installation manual and dyno graphs.

GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem

Wed, Mar 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors

Wed, Oct 22 2014

Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise – in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head

Fri, Jan 30 2015

"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:
