1998 Chevrolet Corvette Manual Trans, New Clutch, Z06 Diff, Carbon Targa Top on 2040-cars
Phillipsburg, New Jersey, United States
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. |

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
