Orlando, Florida, United States
|
Here's your chance to own a part of Corvette history. Chevrolet produced 1163 replicas of the 1998 Corvette Indianapolis 500 Pace Cars. However, only a handful participated at the actual race. This car was purchased from Richard Berry's collection of pace cars.
This is the IMS Number 1 track car. The Number 2 track car actually paced the race and sold at the January 2014 Mecum Auction for a hammer price of $100,000. You can own this historically significant car for much less. The car is in excellent condition with only 2100 original miles and is fully stock accept for tinted windows and a clear nose bra. These items can be removed at the new owner's request. Previous owner had a strobe light system professionally installed. The power control units are hidden under a compartment in the trunk. This system is great for car shows. Car is documented with 2 original window stickers. One window sticker shows the car was delivered to GM's NAO CVO-TECH CENTER REGION in Warren, Michigan. The second window sticker shows the car was delivered to Bud Wolf Chevrolet in Indianapolis, Indiana. Also included with the documentation is a copy of the MSO and a letter from GM stating the significance of this car. The original owner's manual as well as the pace car decal box also comes with the car. If you have any questions, please call Brian at 407-403-4010. Good luck and happy bidding!

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.
