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.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

Canada opens probe into 250,000 GM pickups, SUVs over brake performance

Sun, Jun 23 2019

Transport Canada, the auto safety regulator, has opened a probe into braking issues in nearly 250,000 General Motors full-size pickups and SUVs after U.S. officials launched a similar probe last year, the agency said on its website. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in November into 2.73 million U.S. 2014-2016 model year SUVs and pickups after receiving 487 reports of hard brake pedal effort accompanied by extended stopping distance that were attributed to deterioration of the engine-driven brake assist vacuum pump. Transport Canada's probe covers 249,700 2015 through 2017 model year vehicles including the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon as well as 2014-2017 Chevrolet Silverado LD and GMC Sierra LD vehicles. The U.S. agency said it had reports of nine incidents of vehicles incurring damage as a result of colliding with another vehicle or fixed object at low speeds and reports of two injuries. NHTSA said if the pump fails to operate, the amount of brake power assist can be significantly reduced, extending vehicle stopping distance. The NHTSA sent GM an information request in a Feb. 7 letter. A GM spokesman said he had no update on the investigation. Reporting by David Shepardson; editing by Jonathan Oatis
