Up for auction is my 1994 Admiral Blue/Black Corvette coupe.  Clean Carfax (ran when I bought it in 01/2012), 115,500 miles (less than 2K in the past two years), automatic, performance axle, sport seats (all air bladders and bolsters work), tire pressure warning indicators, Bose CD/cassette, clear blue tinted top.  The coolant and brake fluid were flushed and replaced in 08/2012 and the brakes are like new.  Last oil change approximately 300 miles ago.  It has replica black 17 X 9.5 Grand Sport wheels with Kumho ASX 275/40/17 tires all the way around.  Never been hit, but the nose was repainted by the previous owner after a minor mishap with a high curb which is why the corners are blue instead of black (between the lights).  Just passed California smog in 07/2013 with flying colors.  Brand new Duralast Gold battery installed 08/2013.  When I bought the car it only had one set of keys and one damaged but functioning key fob so that's what I have to pass along.  I also have the original owner's manual and targa top removal tool.  Clear title in hand.  This is a great looking, running and driving Corvette in good condition overall. 

 

New items (past two years):

 

Leather shifter boot

Center console plate

Leather center console cushion

Air filter (K&N)

Muffler eliminators with LT1 tips (sounds AWESOME!)

Billet throttle body plate

Lloyds mats

Fuel door emblem

Coverking black leatherette seat covers

Car will come with two clear tops...one could be used a great core if desired

Pop out headliner for the clear top.  It keeps the sun out and can be easily removed/installed (suction cups)

Front spoiler kit (still in box, never installed)

Quicksilver cover (goes with the car)

 


The bad (very little):

 

The leather on the seats is tired and the driver’s side has the typical wear on the outer bolster and a small hole, so I bought covers rather than reskinning the seats.  They look great and are very comfortable.

The A/C doesn’t work and hasn’t since I’ve owned the car.  I'm more of a windows down guy so I never had it looked at.

Window tint will need replacing eventually, minor peeling that never bothered me.

Outer window sweeps will need replacing eventually ($65.00 dollar part)

Minor oil leak

Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant

Mon, Jun 23 2014

The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.

Cars with the most reckless drivers are full of surprises

Wed, Oct 13 2021

Insurify is a site for comparing auto insurance quotes. Because insurance shoppers need to submit information like the vehicles they're driving and the infractions they've compiled while driving those vehicles, Insurify has quite the database of correlations tying certain models to a habit of breaking certain laws. When the site's data analysts decided to compile a list of the top ten models for reckless driving citations in the decade from 2010 to 2019, the ranking contained a few wild entries. The Dodge Challenger making the countdown will surprise precisely zero people. But the Saturn L200? First, a definition: USLegal.com defines reckless driving as "driving with a willful or wanton disregard for safety. It is the operation of an automobile under such circumstances and in such a manner as to show a willful or reckless disregard of consequences." So this list is a caution about particular drivers more than the cars. For a baseline, according to Insurify data, for any random model, 15 out of 10,000 people who drive that model have picked up one citation for reckless driving. Back to that Challenger, then. No shocker for being here, but it's actually number 10, with 44 out of 10,000 Challenger drivers nabbed for a willful disregard of consequences on the road. That's better than the first surprise entry, the Saturn L200, a sedan only on sale for six years, with the least horsepower on the list, and out of production since 2005. The data set put drivers of GM's extraterrestrial sedan at 45 reckless pilots per 10,000 drivers. There are two pickups on the list, the only modern one being the Ram 1500 at eighth, with a rate of 46 in 10,000. Somehow, drivers of the third-best-selling pickup in the U.S. outrun the overwhelming numerical superiority of the best-selling vehicle in the States, the Ford F-150. The other pickup is the Chevrolet K1500 at number five, with a rate of 56 in 10,000. This is not only the oldest vehicle on the list, it went out of production in 2002, before any other vehicle on the list. Between the trucks, the Volkswagen CC slotted in at seven with 47 in 10,000 reckless driving chits, the Cadillac ATS slipped into sixth with 48 in 10,000.  The top four is a bag of unexpected. The Nissan 370Z is the first hardcore sports car on the list at number four, with 61 in 10,000 Z drivers flaunting their Fairladys in the face of Johnny Law.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
