This is a 1985 Chevrolet Corvette with 43,190 miles on it. This car runs and drives excellent as a 43K should. The car has the 230hp/330lbs torque 350 tuned port injected engine. It is also has the Doug Nash 4+3 Manual transmission. This transmission works great as all the overdrive gears work. The clutch is also great. A manual lock out button for the overdrive gears is on the shifter button if you want just a four speed. The tires are in great shape and the car has an aftermarket Flowmaster exhaust system which sounds great. It runs strong. This was one of the fastest cars produced in 1985. All the DASH ELECTRONICS work, the power antenna works, the powers seats, door locks and power window work. The windshield wipers, fog lights and headlights all work perfect and the car passed and NC safety inspection a few months ago. The only electronic thing that does not work is the interior lights when you open the door. Also the rear hatch buttons that are located in the door panels (This is a module that when replaced will fix the two problems, it is inexpensive to buy). The main rear hatch button works and the rear hatch lights work along with the console lid light. The interior is very clean and the seats were re-done before I bought the car. I have a brand new reproduction steering wheel that goes with the car ($220.00). I just replaced the Targa roof weatherstripping. I will also will replace the door weather stripping and hatch weather stripping before the car is sold. The interior is great on this car.
A/C also blows cold and works great!
Exterior-The car was repainted once the original red. I have taken pictures of a few spokes that are flaking. The red is bright and I have waxed it several times. If I kept the car I would have painted the passenger door and nose area over. The car still looks great as is. I have taken pictures of any of the flaws. The car has the original factory wheels which are in great shape and the Targa top is glass and in very good shape.
This is a great C4 Corvette, not many have this type of mileage on them.
Serious bidders only with a good rating!

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
