1999 CHEVROLET EURO VETTE CONVERTIBLE. These Corvettes were produced in Bowling Green right along side all the
other Vette's, but with options for European export. We've all seen the old classics, and who wouldn't like to own
one of them? I knew a guy that had a 69 L 88 back in the mid seventies, he flaired the fender wells, put some big
tires on it and raced that ol' Vette all over town. Then he got married and settled down, I remember the day I
stopped by his house and setting in the driveway in the place of that Vette, there sat a brand new Ford LTD. I'll
bet he wants to slap himself every time he thinks about that L 88. But you know, we all did the same thing, I owned
a 64 1/2 GTO and a 67 Camaro SS, sure wish I'd held on to at least one of them, oh well, it's all water under the
bridge now. I think that's what you have here, the opportunity to purchase an extremely rare car. GM only made a
few, best calculation is less than 100 of the Euro Vette Convertible's were produced in 1999. Out of the whole C5
production run from 1997 to 2004 not more than 5000 Corvette's were exported to Europe. This listing is a very real
chance to own a genuine low production Chevrolet Corvette. Most of the options are subtle, the average person
wouldn't even notice. An extra light here or there, the button for the trunk release was relocated from the dash to
the console, on the dash where the trunk button was located, now there is a switch to control the back up fog
lamps. The oil pressure gage is in kPa and the water temp ins in Celsius, but no one is going to mistake that 300
mph speedo. To many Euro options to list here, I'll put a photo of the RPO codes in this listing, you can look them
up yourself if your so inclined. This car was originally titled in Gombrook, Manchester, England. the original
owners brought the car to the US in 2003. I purchased the car in January of 2006. I have always treated this car
gently and kept it in the garage, the motor and drive train do not have any issues. I service the car regularly and
only use Mobil 1 oil, has new tires, A-C blows cold air, heads up display, the interior and exterior look great. In
1999 GM didn't produce very many Corvette's for European export, a couple of hundred total, and of these no more
than 100 were convertibles. That being said, it doesn't take a genious to figure how rare of an opportunity you
have to purchase what is sure to be a classic. Cars like the 1969 L88 Corvette, low production numbers are what
made those cars what they are today. That's what's being offered right here, it's just a 1999 Vette, but with the
European export options, this is a genuine GM product with less than 100 examples in the world. I heard about a 63
Euro Vette that sold for 350 grand a couple a years back, that car wasn't really anything special, the kicker was
that it was a low production European export. Put 30 more years on this car, no telling what it'll be, because you
know, those crazy driving Europeans will wreck all there Vette's by then, this might be the only one left, who
knows.

2016 Chevy Volt ads strike frustrating, yet familiar, chord

Fri, Oct 2 2015

Sometimes, it's hard to let go. In the six years that GM has been advertising and selling the Chevy Volt, one dominant message is that the car is an EV without any range anxiety. On the one hand, this is a positive thing: our car does something that other electric vehicles don't. Of course, there's another, more reasonable take on the message that EVs only equal limited range: don't promote this viewpoint if you ever plan on selling a pure EV. But, of course, this is exactly what GM is doing with a new ad for the 2016 Chevy Volt. Called Elevator, the spot (watch it above) compares driving an all-electric car with riding in an elevator getting stuck. Your Nissan Leaf might run out of electricity, the ad says, and that would be as uncomfortable as being trapped between floors. The main problem, of course, is that Chevy also offers the Spark EV and is getting ready to sell the Bolt EV. Does the company think that everyone will forget these anti-EV commercials when it come time to shop for a Bolt? Even worse, does GM think we've forgotten the Anthem ad for the Volt back in 2010? Apparently, so. Elevator isn't the only ad for the 2016 Volt that GM debuted today. The other, called Time Capsule (below), takes a swipe at the Toyota Prius. Trouble is, there are two easy ways to dismiss this ad as well. First, and most obviously, if GM is against using old technology, then why does it continue to shove a 100-year-old fossil fuel engine into almost every car it builds? Second, attacking the Prius for using 15-year-old tech – when said tech is still able to mop the floor with any hybrid from GM in the fuel economy race - is more like an admission of defeat than anything to be proud of. "Hey look, the Prius uses technology from the '90s," GM says. To which the observant viewer will ask, "Well, then why can't you build a 50-mile-per-gallon hybrid, GM?" It's also worth noting that Chevy has been on a misguided advertising streak as of late. We bashed their ads that suggested its Silverado is better than the F-150 because it uses steel instead of aluminum, too, especially since those commercials used shark cages and stupid superhero costumes in an attempt to make a point. Chevy, stop assuming we're all idiots. Please. Now, the 2016 Volt is a great car and I know that GM can make a darn good Volt ad (like this one), so seeing the company shoot solid fuel-efficient technologies in the back (again and again) is just frustrating.

GM CEO to meet with U.S. lawmakers over job cuts

Fri, Nov 30 2018

WASHINGTON — General Motors Co Chief Executive Mary Barra plans to visit Capitol Hill next week to discuss the company's plans to halt production at five plants in North America next year and cut up to 15,000 jobs, two congressional aides said on Friday. GM has come under harsh criticism from lawmakers from both major political parties, and from President Donald Trump, since Monday when it announced the biggest restructuring for the U.S. No. 1 carmaker since its bankruptcy a decade ago. Barra is expected to meet with lawmakers from Michigan and Ohio, where GM plans to shutter three plants, as well as senior leaders in Congress. GM did not immediately comment. Barra has been calling lawmakers this week to explain the decision to end production. Trump has threatened to revoke subsidies for GM. The Detroit automaker plans to halt production next year at three assembly plants: the Lordstown small-car factory near Youngstown, Ohio; the Detroit-Hamtramck complex in Detroit; and the Oshawa, Ontario, assembly complex near Toronto. It will also stop building several models now assembled at those plants, including the Chevrolet Cruze, the Chevrolet Volt hybrid, the Cadillac CT6 and the Buick LaCrosse. Additionally, GM plans to shutter the Warren transmission plant outside Detroit and a plant that makes electric motors and drivetrains outside Baltimore, Maryland. The Cruze compact car will be discontinued in the U.S. market in 2019, although GM may continue building it in Mexico for other markets, Barra said. Reporting by David Shepardson. Related Video:

2016 Chevy COPO Camaro wears drag to SEMA [w/video]

Wed, Nov 4 2015

Attendees to this year's SEMA Show get to be the first to check out Chevrolet's latest COPO Camaro that's now based on the new, sixth-generation model. As before, they packs a bevy of racing modifications to rocket down drag strips across the country. All of the interested customers might not get one of these hand-built machines, though, because Chevy is sticking with the tradition of only building 69 of them for 2016. Devised to compete NHRA Stock and Super Stock Eliminator classes, the latest COPO Camaro features the lighter, more rigid platform of the sixth-gen model. Buyers can choose from an array of V8s for power, including a supercharged 350-cubic-inch engine, a naturally aspirated 427, or an LT-based 376. All of them come with a race-prepped Turbo 400 three-speed automatic, solid rear axle, and adjustable suspension. The COPO on display for SEMA wears custom styling from drag racer Courtney Force that combines a Red Hot and black color scheme with her name slashing across rear fender. This one also packs a concept 350-cubic-inch V8 with a 2.9-liter Whipple supercharger. If you're interested in owning it, the car will cross the auction block at a Barrett-Jackson sale in 2016, and the proceeds will go to the United Way. Related Video: CHEVROLET INTRODUCES GEN SIX COPO CAMARO Courtney Force-designed show car to be auctioned for United Way LAS VEGAS – With assistance from NHRA Camaro Funny Car driver Courtney Force, Chevrolet introduced the Gen Six COPO Camaro today at the SEMA Show. After visiting the COPO build center, Force collaborated with Chevrolet designers to create a custom appearance for the 2016 COPO Camaro SEMA show car. It will be auctioned at a Barrett-Jackson sale in 2016, with the proceeds going to United Way. Chevrolet will build 69 COPO Camaro race cars for 2016, extending the production legacy that began in 2012 with the fifth-generation Camaro. Like the previous editions, the new COPO Camaro is designed for NHRA's Stock and Super Stock Eliminator classes. "With the new Gen Six Camaro as its foundation, the 2016 COPO Camaro begins the next chapter of an historic racing legacy," said Jim Campbell, Chevrolet U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. "It's great to have Courtney Force on Team Chevy and to work with her on the design of the new COPO Camaro show car.
