Up for auction is my 1999 corvette. I purchased from a gentleman that was moving and decided to sell. I knew the car was clean and a sound investment. I had a full dealer inspection performed prior to buying. The dealership said this was a very clean 1999 corvette. I already have too many toys as it is. Let's just say my insurance company loves me. I've decided to sell to help with some home renovations in the spring. This is a fun car for the money. Surprisingly good on fuel on the highway. Get in and drive it home. Please ask questions. Check my feedback, I will try my best to answer all questions and provide as much detail as possible. I bought the car exactly how you see it.
LOW STARTING PRICE!!!

124,000 miles
Clean Carfax
6 speed manual transmission
Stage two (2) performance clutch (Firm clutch pedal action)
Paint is very good condition considering the mileage and age of the car (a couple chips and scratches. would need to be up close to see them)
Runs and handles great
Well maintained

New wiper motor installed
Glass is tinted (Don't know the %)
Three (3) keys
B&M ripper shifter (installed) and factory shifter (to go with)
Removable targa top (not glass)
New OEM corvette floor mats
Touch screen navigation w/Bluetooth
Upgraded C6 wheel package with new F1 tires
BBK cold air intake
Borla stainless steel exhaust

Bose sound system
Heads up display
New OEM Bose speakers still in box to go with (upgrade)
Very clean car inside, under and out
Known Issues:
Driver seat motor sicks in the up & down positions from time to time
Front tire pressure sensor is bad.
The driver side headlight looks to be a little out of adjustment (very minor). You need to be front and center of the car and about three foot away to see the alignment issue.
The gear ratio has been changed. I don't know the new ratio but it drives fine on interstate at high speeds. The guy I bought it from lost the paper work. I can notice a difference compared to other corvettes around 50-70 mph range.
The after market shifter makes the shift pattern very close. Fine when you get use to it... The car has not had a skip-shift-eliminator kit installed. C5's are famous for this pesky shift skip from the factory (Google it). I would recommend installing one if you stay with the B&M shifter.
The front drive side fender has had a repair at the lower corner where it fastens to the rocker panel below the fender vent.

Chevy Volt gets customer satisfaction 'recall' for rear hatch issue *UPDATE*
Mon, Jan 26 2015Last week, General Motors has issued a "Customer Satisfaction program" for some 2011-2015 model year Chevrolet Volts to fix the manual rear lift gate not working as appropriate. According to Volt owner posts on Facebook, the problem manifests itself by the hatch not opening up all the way (sometimes worse in the cold) with some people bumping their heads. Dealers will replace the lift gate struts as part of the program. Some drivers were notified through the vehicle's OnStar system that there is a problem. GM has not yet said how many Volts are affected. *UPDATE* This program is for all 2011-2015 model year Volts. Chevrolet spokesperson Michelle Malcho told AutoblogGreen that, "This is not a recall, so there won't be any formal information posted on the GM website." The fixes will be free to affected Volt owners. Some 2010-2015 Cadillac SRX vehicles are also affected by the same problem and will also be fixed.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV Rally Car To Compete, Barra bullish on Chevy Volt
Fri, Oct 31 2014The Toyota FCV will compete in the last stage of the 2014 Japanese Rally Championship. The sport-tuned hydrogen-powered car will tackle the 177-mile Shinshiro Rally on November 1 and 2, emitting no greenhouse gases in the process. The rally course will help prove the safety of the vehicle before it goes on sale in Japan in the next several months. The Toyota FCV, rumored to be called "Mirai" in Japan, will begin sales there before April, according to Toyota, and in the summer in the US and Europe. Read more in the press release below. Carsharing is becoming more popular, and more visible, throughout the world, including the US. According to WardsAuto columnist John McElroy, 18 percent of US drivers have used some sort of carsharing service. Additionally, he says 60 percent of Americans are familiar with Zipcar and Uber. Mercedes' Harald Kroeger says promotions like free parking for carshares in Stuttgart are encouraging growth for Daimler's carsharing service, Car2go. Read more at WardsAuto. Ethanol is being help up by rail transport, according to ethanol producer Green Plains. More and more stations are carrying E15 blend gasoline, but grain producers have complained that crude oil is given higher priority by the rail lines shipping it, which rail companies deny. Union Pacific and BNSF Railway say they are stepping up service to make sure that ethanol can be shipped reliably to customers. Read more at Omaha World-Herald. General Motors "has placed a significant bet [on] the electrification of the automobile," says CEO Mary Barra. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club this week, she spoke about the Chevrolet Volt, and its importance to GM's future. While Barra admits the Volt's success has been "not everything we wanted," it has provided experience, and shows that EVs have "an important role in the future of GM." The new Volt is more refined, stores more energy, has longer range, uses less fuel and is a big investment for Michigan. She announced that the new Volt's electric drive system will be built in Warren, and that all of its major components will be made in Michigan. "Silicon Valley doesn't have a corner on the market for innovation, creativity and drive," says Barra. "These qualities exist here – in this region – as well."

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
