Just in time for Dads and Grads is this beautiful 1987 Chevrolet Corvette.  This is an absolute cream puff and has 28,2XX original miles. It is a Tuned Port Injection 350 cubic inch V8 engine with an automatic transmission with overdrive. The car is in excellent condition and has been garage kept since new. It is gunmetal gray/silver with dark grey leather interior. 

I am the third owner and have all of the records from the second owner dating back to 2003.  The second and third owners of this car were mechanics who pampered the car and never abused it.  It has a new MAF sensor, MAF relay, intake manifold gaskets, and oil pressure sending unit. No trouble codes and runs perfect. The interior is clean (door panels,dash pad,carpet are in great condition). It has a removable painted top and a glass top included for those nice summer days ahead. All features work as they were originall designed and manufactured.  Teh car passed VA state inspection in 2011 prior to being registered as an antique in 2012. 

Factory installed features include cruise control, power windows, power locks, power antenna, power seats, tilt wheel, power brakes, power antenna, and power steering. Factory wheels in excellent condition. Has 4 new Yokohama tires on the car, new battery, and new exhaust with mufflers. A/C recharged with R134a and blows cold. Truly a nice car and a turn key. Have clear and free Virginia state title in hand. 

This car needs nothing, but there are a few cosmetic issues that should be pointed out.  The left front removable fender (that covers the battery) has a scratch in it as shown in the photos.  It is minor and very difficult to see.  On the interior, the carpet on the door panels is coming unglued on the driver door from age and the headliner on the painted hard top is sagging.  The left display on teh instrument cluster is slighter dimmer than the right, and the radio tends to "drift" from station to station when the weather is cold.  These are all very minor issues, but I want to nit-pick the car so there will be NO disappointments. 

This vehicle is being sold as-is and where is. Cash only sale on pick up. The winning bidder will be responsible for shipping and pick-up.  For interested parties that are not in the DC Metro area, fly into Dulles or Washington National Airport.  I will pick you up and you can drive the car home. 

Please ask all questions prior to bidding.  Placing a bid means you intend to follow through.  Please do not waste my time or yours.  

Additional photos can be provided on request.  Please note this vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  Thank you for looking and good luck!

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford steals Best Green Brand spot from Toyota, EV buyer survey goes online

Wed, Jun 25 2014

Chevrolet is one of the Top Global Green Brands of 2014, according to brand consultancy firm Interbrand. Chevy ranks number 32 on the list, which cover brands across a wide variety of segments. The report measures brand perception and brand performance, and the gap between the two is small for Chevrolet. "The company is not only actively demonstrating its environmental commitment," says Interbrand CEO Jez Frampton. "It's communicating those efforts in an authentic way that resonates with customers." Chevrolet cites its Spark EV, Volt and Cruze models as reason for its green cred. This is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Being 32nd is good and all, but other automotive brands ranked much higher than the Bowtie. Ford, Toyota, Honda and Nissan took the top four spots in the report, respectively, with BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz all besting Chevrolet. The big takeaway here is that Ford topped the list. In the Top Global Green Brand list's four-year history, this is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Ford was second on the list last year, and 15th in 2012. "Ford embodies everything the business of the future must be: efficient, visionary, flexible, adept at problem-solving, cooperative, and focused on creating shared value," Interbrand says on its website. "From unveiling a first-of-its-kind solar-powered vehicle, the C-MAX Solar Energi Concept, to partnering with peers across sectors to do the seemingly impossible - like creating bio-plastic out of tomato fiber with Heinz-Ford is showing us what's possible." It bears mentioning that Ford's most recent MPG adjustments came after the study was conducted. Ford is also making the news for its 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine earning International Engine of the Year for the third straight year. Awarded Best Engine Under 1.0 Liter, the turbocharged three-cylinder motor earned high praise from judges. "This year's competition was the fiercest yet, but the 1.0-liter EcoBoost continues to stand out for all the right reasons – great refinement, surprising flexibility and excellent efficiency," said International Engine of the Year co-chairman Dean Slavnich. "The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is one of the finest examples of powertrain engineering." The 123-horsepower engine powers the Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost, and will be available in a version of the Ford Focus in the US later this year. See more about the award in the press release, below.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
