1995 Chevrolet Corvette Zr-1 Hatchback 2-door 5.7l Immaculate, 3,000 Miles on 2040-cars
Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey, United States
|
The engine of the ZR1 was developed by Lotus Racing, built by Mercury Marine, and struck from a single aluminum ingot to assure uniform thermal expansion. The engine is as powerful as any Supercar of the era and out performs almost all of present day Supercars! The ONLY dual overhead cam engine ever used in a GM car...405 HP of raw power. The engine has never been touched, except for regular oil changes and fluid top off's. Have original window sticker, build sheet, promotional brochure, and several boxes of memorabilia connected with the car, including all the car magazine reviews.
One of 448 built in 1995 and even more rare red interior. Hands down the 1995 ZR1 was the best of all the ZR's. Purchased the car from an engineer who took better car of this car than some people take of their children. The sale includes VERY rare engine fluids that were developed especially for the ZR1, but no longer produced. He purchased the car with 54 miles. No mileage has been put on the car since I purchased it. As you will note from the pictures, the OEM wheels have been professionally painted in high gloss black trim...an immensely better look. Previous owner swapped out certain parts that he felt could "wear out" over time. This included the date stamped OEM tires (absolutely no visual deterioration whatsoever), OEM brake rotors, and muffler system. All of the original OEM parts are included with the sale. The parts used as temporary replacement are top-of-the line. The muffler system is in transit, but all other parts are in my possession and included in the sale. The engineer also installed a interior roll bar. This was done to increase the structural rigidity of the car (that's an engineer for you). The car HAS NEVER been raced or abused in any way...that the car was "babied" is easy to see with an inspection, particularly the underside of the car, which is immaculate. This car is ready to show, drive and enjoy. I attend local car shows and I have never seen a perfect ZR1 like this one...come to think about it I have never seen a ZR1 at a show, period! Get in touch with me for any questions. Thanks for looking! On Feb-11-14 at 22:59:15 PST, seller added the following information: For sale here is a nearly new 1995 ZR1.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names
Tue, Mar 17 2015Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly – and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter – Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof – which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit – helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.
First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.
