  • I am the Original OWNER of this fully loaded 2000 C5 Corvette … I ordered it from Anderson Chevrolet in Cupertino, CA and I took delivery in October 1999
  • 208,302 miles  (But the car drives awesome and feels like half the mileage) the car is 15 years old and this means the car travelled about an average of 14k miles per year with the exception of the last three years when it’s been only occasionally driven as I am retired, probably less than 3k mikes a year. As long as I’ve owned this Corvette the predominant usage has been on the highway (I was a salesman)….I rarely had to replace brakes!
  • Engine is strong and uses no oil. Oil and filter have been changed within the prescribed mileage intervals and only with Mobil 1. It has a Donaldson Blackwing Air Filter
  • Transmission shifts smooth and crisply. Recently I replaced the Reverse Synchronizer and gear, and the other gear assemblies were prefect!
  • Clutch is tight and responsive and has much of its life left. It has had 3 clutches and all have been Luk Gold clutch/pressure plate assemblies. Current clutch has about 15K on it.
  • Differential is an A&A Specialties 3.90 (I replaced the stock 3.73) and it makes 6th gear much more useable at freeway speeds and pulls very hard under acceleration!
  •  Bassani Quad Tip Stainless Steel Exhaust system w/X-pipe
  • Griffin  LS1/6  2 Row  1 1/4 ” aluminum Radiator
  •  Z51 Performance Handling Package
  • Active Handling System w/control button
  • Lowered 3/4 ” utilizing Bilstein shocks
  • Exterior body and paint is in good condition commensurate with a 15 year old car and shows no dings, but does have some scratching and rock chips on the nose car   SEE PICS! 
  • Interior is nice and has maintained all its appeal. No smells and no foul odors. The driver's seat shows some tears/wear around the edges of the driver’s bolster (see pics) …passenger seat almost unused but aged.. Included are two NEW Sport Seat Covers (see pics)
  • The Interior includes ALL the options available that year, HEADS UP Display, 6-way power seats on both sides, Dual Zone Air Conditioning, Bose AM/FM Stereo w/ remote Compact 12 disc changer, Twilight Sentinel and power Telescoping Steering Column
  • Roof package includes BOTH roofs.  Lt. Pewter and Blue Transparent which is in excellent condition, only used maybe 6 times.  Removable Tops lock and unlock perfect and absolutely no signs of any leaks.
  • Tires are Brand New!.. just installed
  • Wheels are the optional Magnesium. They are in reasonable condition but do show some signs of road rash and some paint chipping… see pics
  • This car was not a “garage queen”, I’ve had several Corvettes (C4s & C5s) and I bought them because I love to drive them!!  If you are looking for a pristine example to grace your garage and be driven on sunny Sundays, this car might not be for you…If you are a gear head looking for a well-equipped Corvette to drive, renovate or convert to a track car…This is it!... This car will only go up in value as the years go by and there is less and less of these around (Especially this well-equipped)
  • Premium All weather Car Cover (virtually unused) included
  • Set of three factory shop manuals included and many docs, receipts, instructions etc.
  • Box of extras, including Red Z06 valve covers, several hi-po shifters, stock air box, fuel filters, shifter knobs etc

        Please this is being listed locally and I reserve the right to withdraw on prior sale

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper

Fri, Nov 10 2017

With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
