1988 Chevrolet Corvette Base Hatchback 2-door 5.7l Auto on 2040-cars
Littlestown, Pennsylvania, United States
Up for sale is my 1988 Corvette. I am selling this and my Jeep because I don't need and can't keep up with 3 vehicles.
White exterior, red/black interior, 95,xxx miles. L98 350 engine, 4 speed auto, and 2.54 rear. I get around 17-18 mpg around town, 24+ highway. Being as this is a 26 year old vehicle, it is by no means a show car. I would rate it a 10 footer daily driver. I have waxed it a few times. That said, it has its imperfections. There are a few paint chips, a thin spot, and a cracked mirror. I tried to capture it in the photos. There is some primer peeking through on top of the rear bumper. Paint here is iffy due to years of someone dripping fuel on it while pulling the nozzle out. It has its share of squeaks and rattles. If you have owned a C4 before, you know all about them. Sirius radio NOT included. Wheels are the baseline 16 inch wheels only offered in 1988. 1987 and 1989 models featured a different rim. This is the only set I've ever seen that were chromed. Most are brushed aluminum. I purchased it in July 2012 with 82,xxx miles. I have regularly changed the oil with Mobil 1 Full Synthetic High Mileage. Really the only things I have done are plugs/wires/cap/rotor, oil changes, air filter, fuel filter, and belt. I always use Premium 92/93 octane gas. I have made a few long distance trips in it with no issues. Longest was an over-400-mile trip from southern PA to Alexandria Bay in upstate NY. Again, no issues(and I did it on a single tank of gas, but was buried on empty when I arrived). There are a few problems. The battery went flat over the winter because I didn't drive it for over 4 months, and now the radio wont change from FM1. Cant play the cd player, aux, or AM. Cant eject the CD in there either or set the time. It is an aftermarket radio, I believe from 1994 time frame. The trim piece in the rear cargo area that covers the privacy cover is cracked in several places. I tried to repair it best I could, its fixed but isnt going to win any awards. Like I said, little odds and ends here and there, as its 26 years old. Occasionally when you let the tank get close to empty there is a mild fuel starvation issue at W.O.T. most likely due to there being little fuel in the bottom of the tank and the gass sloshing around. I very rarely ever let the tank get that empty, I always try to keep all my vehicles over 1/2 tank(I'm a little OCD like that). Interior pieces here and there have some cracks around screws, if you are familiar with 1980's GM plastics, it should come as no surprise.The 12v outlet worked some of the time, so I installed a secondary one in the center console(which I feel is a better location anyway). The climate control display sometimes flickers, which is very common for these. Works fine though. Includes the original owners pamphlet and Corvette roof tool. I am located 10 minutes outside Gettysburg, PA. Pick up only. I can meet within a reasonable distance, within a half hour to 45 minutes from my house. No trades. Will not ship. Cash up front, no payments, no loans, I'm not a bank. $500 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit due via Paypal immediately following purchase. For sale locally, I reserve the right to pull this down if it sells locally. |

Chevy Sail 3 lands in China
Sun, Nov 23 2014Shanghai General Motors took 32 cars to this year's Guangzhou Motor Show, with its Chevrolet Sail 3 leading the way. After putting almost 1.4 million of them into Chinese hands, the third generation of the Bowtie's entry-level sedan wants to "take the nameplate and the segment to a new level." Its new architecture sporting a 1.4-inch longer wheelbase supports a growth spurt of two inches in length and 1.8 inches in width. The exterior also gets "eagle eye-shaped" headlights and "dual-c-element taillights." Under the hood will be either a 1.5-liter DVVT or a 1.3-liter VVT, each of them more powerful and more frugal than previous offerings. Both can be paired with a manual or an automatic transmission, and qualify for listing in China's National Energy-Saving and Eco-Friendly Vehicle Catalogue, as well as a 3,000 renminbi rebate ($490 US). You can read more about it in the press release below, and get more info on the Chevrolet Camaro RS Limited Edition, Corvette Stingray Coupe, Buick Regal GS and Excelle XT also introduced at the show. Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac Take Center Stage at Guangzhou Auto Show - New Chevrolet Sail 3, Camaro RS Limited Edition and Corvette Stingray Coupe make China debut - Buick showcases customized Regal GS and Excelle XT - Shanghai GM announces new telematics strategy featured in upcoming Cadillac product GUANGZHOU, 2014-11-20 – Shanghai GM is displaying 32 vehicles from the Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac brands at the 12th Guangzhou International Auto Show, which begins today and runs through November 29 in Guangzhou. Among the products that are making their China debut are the third-generation Chevrolet Sail 3, Chevrolet Camaro RS Limited Edition and Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe. In addition, Buick is showcasing a customized Regal GS and Excelle XT, and Shanghai GM is announcing its new telematics strategy that will be featured in an upcoming Cadillac product next year. Chevrolet Sail 3 Entry-Level Family Car Since its introduction 15 years ago, the Sail has been a driving force in the entry-level family car segment. Nearly 1.4 million Sails have been sold across China. The third-generation Chevrolet Sail, named the Sail 3, will take the nameplate and the segment to a new level when it goes on sale nationwide by the end of this year. Built on Shanghai GM's new-generation small car architecture, the Sail 3 has adopted Chevrolet's new design language. It has a sculpted yet slim exterior with a youthful, dynamic feel.
GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production [UPDATE]
Sun, Jan 25 2015UPDATE: A previous version of this story indicated that Orion Assembly would be idled for seven weeks, from February 16 through April 6. This was incorrect. The factory will instead only be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has announced that the factory responsible for the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Sonic will be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6, with blame being placed on excess supply. The Orion Assembly plant, about 45 minutes north of GM's Renaissance Center headquarters, employs about 1,800 people, but they'll be given a pair of furloughs as inventories of the sub-compact Sonic and premium compact Verano reach 127 days and 84 days, respectively. That works out to 26,600 Chevys and 9,800 Buicks waiting for buyers. According to Automotive News, the compact Chevy sales bested the industry average in 2014, jumping up nine percent versus the the overall segment's eight-percent gain, while the Buick sedan's sales were down four percent. When asked about the shutdown, a GM spokesman told AN that it will "build to market demand," while also pointing out that the company did not comment on production plans.
