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.

A hybrid and electric Corvette, plus we drive the Ioniq 5 | Autoblog Podcast #728

Fri, May 6 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. Zac drove the electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Greg drove the fire-breathing 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. The two dive deep into the relatively heavy news week by starting off with a discussion about the upcoming hybrid Corvette before chatting about what the electric Corvette might be like. They have a chat about the possibility of Porsche and Audi officially joining the Formula 1 field. Then, Greg and Zac get into some quick-hitting news to round out the segment by dissecting the updated Kia Soul (now without a turbo), the 30th Anniversary Edition Land Rover Defender and the new CEO at Aston Martin. Following the news and drive reviews, they rope in Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder to give them a quick download of what went down at the first drive for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Finally, they reach into the mailbag and answer some questions from someone who is less than pleased about infotainment systems in some new cars. And lastly, the gang hears back from someone they helped out in a prior Spend My Money segment on the podcast. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.
