well, ive decided to sell my car. nothings wrong with it and I really really like it, but ive decided to buy another turbo coupe. so, here she is. the car has the actual 5.7 LT1, not the 4.3 L99. has newer trans in it with Kevlar clutches, shift kit, and a higher stall torque converter. trans has about 40k on it, and is in perfect working order. shifts really firm and will squawk 2nd gear when half throttle or more. engine runs perfect, has great oil pressure, leaks nothing, uses noting, burns nothing. This car was a well taken care of car. I just did brakes, rotors, and bearings up front. rear end just had the gear lube changed. while changing the lube, I inspected the diff and gears. they are in perfect shape with no slop or excessive wear of any kind, and it is an 8.5 rear end. has four wheel disc brakes and will need rear pads soon, but if I still have it when they need it, ill change them. im great about maintenance and repairs being done on time and right. you could literally take this car anywhere and I wouldn't even blink an eye about it. there is one thing that does not work on it and that is the temp gauge. I believe its the sensor, but haven't gotten around to it yet. the car drives straight and is quiet. no pops, clunks, squeaks, etc. rides great. it has a cold air intake, and exhaust work with magnaflow mufflers. it sounds good with a nice rumble. now, for the history of the car. This car was the police chief of elgin illinois police departments car. it has never had a cage in it, it did have the light bar and antennas on it, but the holes have been plugged, not siliconed. the car is in really good condition, not all beat to shit like most regular patrol cars. I am the third owner, and the guy I got it from bought it from the police department with 80 some thousand miles (I saw it on the title when I got it) ten years ago. I got it from him in November of 2013 with 150k on it. it has been my daily driver and it has started on the coldest days. I have several extra parts that go with the car. I have a set of rust free rear doors for it that are complete, just wire up bolt on and go. theres nothing wrong with the doors on it now other than they still don't open from the inside. I have the original airbox set up, extra certified cluster for it, extra set of wheel bearings, drivers side complete head light with mount, several beauty rings for it, full sized matching spare, original grille, and im sure theres more. I currently have a nice pioneer cd player in it with two 10" kicker comps powered by a cap and 760 watt pioneer amp. it rocks to classic rock and hard rock!!!! im asking $2850 for it and im firm on the price. considering the condition of the car and the extras for it, im more than fair on the price. so don't ask me to take less unless I start keeping things, but even then I wont go down much. the title is free and clear and in my name. the mileage will go up because it is my daily driver still. there is no warrantee implied or written with the car. it is sold as is, where is. you are responsible for shipping. cash is king, but will accept money order or certified bank check. car does not leave my possession until I have full payment. which means if you don't bring cash, it doesn't leave until what you bring clears and I have the money. all in all, I would rate this car a 7 out of 10 because it is that nice. I put an impala ss grille on it because I like how it looks, but everything else is still caprice. fel free to call, text or email with questions. 815-977-2427. thank you for looking at my ad. I have several pictures of the car, but cant get them to upload. I got lucky with one picture I guess. thanks. oh, I will consider trades of 87-88 turbo coupe, or possibly a super coupe, but that's it. |

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Recharge Wrap-up: U of M wins Solar Challenge, family attempts record-breaking e-bike ride
Thu, Aug 14 2014The University of Michigan Solar Car Team has won the 2014 American Solar Challenge. It is the team's eighth national championship, its fifth in a row, and its first using Siemens' product lifecycle management (PLM) software. The race took place over 1,722 miles and seven days traveling across eight states. The team's car, called "Quantum," outpaced the nearest competitor by four hours. Looking forward, Michigan Solar Car Project Manager Pavan Naik says, "The switch to Siemens tools will give us the ability to model and simulate everything and truly allow us to optimize the performance of our new vehicle. As we start on our quest to win the World Solar Challenge in 2015, we'll be leveraging a full complement of PLM solutions." Read more in the press release below. The EcoCar3 competition, in which teams will convert Chevrolet Camaros into hybrid electric cars, begins in September. The various college teams will have four years to lessen the car's environmental impact as much as possible while maintaining performance and, of course, that cool Camaro design. EcoCar3, which is put on by the US Department of Energy and General Motors, kicks off with a workshop in Novi, Michigan from September 16 - 18. Read more at the DOE website at the dedicated EcoCar3 site or watch the announcement video at our previous post. Zap and Jonway Auto are shifting to a high rate of EV production. Zap already has two lines creating the Urbee EV to met demand, and is switching over a third to make electric minivans and SUVs. The company aims to produce 30,000 EVs by 2015 for the Chinese market. Zap says it has a backlog of 25,000 Urbee orders. Read more in the press release below. A family of four hopes to make a world record-breaking, 6,000-mile electric bike journey this fall. The family, which recently drove from Argentina to Montana in a pickup with a camper, will ride from Montana to Maine, then down the East Coast to Florida in an attempt to break the record for longest electric bicycle ride. They'll use two bikes. The Father, Thomas, will ride one of the bikes carrying one of the children, while the rest of the family rides in a support vehicle, with the mother, Dylan, riding the second bike when they can find others to drive. They have started a crowdfunding campaign for some of the equipment needed to document the trip. See the video below or read more at Treehugger.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
