For sale is my beloved Nassau Blue 1998 Corvette coupe. I've owed the car for 3 years, put nearly 38,000 miles on it, done virtually all the work myself (Dad and Grandpa were both mechanics, and I'm pretty hardcore for a shade-tree). Currently at my house near Easton, PA (18042). I've loved this car to death, but I'm doing pretty well financially and am looking to upgrade, possibly to a C7Z. With that in mind, I have designed this ad to be as transparent and direct as possible about all advantages and problems of this car:
In June, I completed an absolutely biblical 100-man-hour upgrade/maintenance program for the car, including the following: New C5 Z06 Clutch New Flywheel Pilot Bearing New OEM Clutch Slave Cylinder New OEM Clutch Master Cylinder Tick Performance Speed Bleeder New Torque Tube Bushings New Fuel Filter New C5 Z06 3-Rib Differential (No while or hum at all, period) including diff seals Trans opened, serviced, including fastidious resealing. Exterior of the trans and rear end are absolutely BONE DRY. The driveline and rear suspension were thoroughly cleaned when dismounted as well. Additionally, the following modifications/replacements have been done in the last couple years: 7-Layer custom carbon fiber targa top from user SOCalVettes with UV-proof clear coat New GM OEM targa top weatherstrip (not the $30/side Ebay stuff, the real deal, have receipts) 00-04 TPMS upgrade package with new FOBS courtesy of GM Parts House C5 Z06 shocks Metal sway bar end links New Starter New Trottle position sensor TB, air filters fully dismounted and cleaned in the last 4 months New Ignition Switch C5 Magnesium competition wheels (No curbing/digs, but the finish is chipped on two of the wheels in a couple spots)\ Carbon wrapped fuel door (have original in perfect condition included with car) C5 Z06 titanium axle back exhaust. All fluids except brake fluid have been done recently. Oil just changed with Mobil 1 (always) and a Bosch filter in May, 87% left according to the clock. I have put 650 miles on the car since these repairs with zero issues, including city driving, commuting, highway, and even a number of extremely rapid pulls. No leaks, No chatter. No overheating. No problems. Car has 118,000ish miles on it. Yes, that's a fair amount, but the engine idles flat as a table, does not burn or leak any oil, and the car now has a substantial number of high price wear components that are newer than what you'd get on a car with super low miles. Only problems with the car are normal under-front-bumper chin scrapes, a small 1" scratch on the passenger door, a weak passenger side window regulator (still works fine) and the driver's power seat struggles a bit moving forward only, but starts fine with a little nudge. $500 deposit due in 48 hours of auction close. You are bidding for the opportunity to own this car, not the opportunity to think about it if your settlement comes in or your boat sells. Contact me by message to view/test drive the car before bidding, otherwise, I have described the car's condition accurately. For sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells. |

First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06s en route to owners [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014Pretty much right on schedule, Chevrolet has begun shipping the very first customer examples of its 650-horsepower, supercharged Corvette Z06. In fact, according to General Motors, the earliest Z06s could be in customer hands by the end of this week. "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on Chevy's most capable model," said Jeff Lamarche, manager of Chevy's Bowling Green Assembly plant. "It truly is an amazing car, and we're thrilled to get them into the hands of our eager customers." Prices for the Z06 start at $78,995 for the hardtop model, while the first-ever Z06 Convertible kicks off at $83,995. Take a look below for the official press release from Chevrolet, and while you're down there, we've slipped in a new video of Corvette Racing's Tommy Milner taking a hot lap of Road Atlanta in a Z06, complete with some Performance Data Recorder footage. First 2015 Corvette Z06s on Their Way to Customers Most capable model in Chevrolet's history now shipping from Bowling Green BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Chevrolet is now shipping the all-new 2015 Corvette Z06 coupe from Bowling Green Assembly and some early customers could receive the much-anticipated supercar later this week. "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on Chevy's most capable model," said Jeff Lamarche, plant manager of General Motors' Bowling Green Assembly plant, "It truly is an amazing car, and we're thrilled to get them into the hands of our eager customers." The new Corvette Z06 offers the most choice for customers in the model's history. It is the first Z06 to offer an available eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission and, thanks to a stronger aluminum frame, a removable roof panel. In addition, it is the first time since 1963 that the Z06 is available as a convertible – which will arrive in early 2015. The new LT4 supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine is SAE-certified at 650 horsepower (485 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 650 lb-ft of torque (881 Nm) at 3,600 rpm – making the 2015 Corvette Z06 the most powerful production car ever from General Motors and one of the most powerful production cars available in the United States. To balance performance and efficiency, the LT4 leverages a trio of advanced technologies – direct injection, Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing –with a new, more efficient supercharger. The LT4 helps make the Corvette Z06 the most capable car in the brand's history.
Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine
Tue, Oct 28 2014As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.
