We're trying to buy a house so unfortunately we have to sell our toy.  02 Corvette Convertible in Speedway White with Torch Red Interior. This is not a common color combination and really sets the car apart form all the black and silver ones out there! I have had the car about a year and love driving this bad boy around!  The EBCM has just been replaced, the tranny was replaced about a year ago, new Robbins brand top was just installed (2 mos. ago), new seat leathers and cushions (3 mos. ago), new sun visors, new windshield washer pump, new oil pressure sensor, dash light, mirror and climate control bulbs replaced, AC has just been charged, new steering angle sensor,brake fluid exchange service, lower engine pan gasket replaced, new tire pressure monitors.  The carpets have just been cleaned and the car has just been detailed.  Brand new (unused) Lloyds's black carpet mats! Two sets of keys and remotes. The car did not have the rear center floor stowage cover but I picked up a black one - it just needs to be re-covered in red carpet. When I got the car I was surprised at how nice the interior and body were considering the mileage - it  just needed some maintenance and upkeep.  As you can see, that it is what I have been doing. 

The car is clean but does have some wear and tear corresponding to its age.  The pics are nice but the paint really shines in the sun! I think the interior is really clean  (still has original floor mats) but the drivers side armrest is starting to delam.  I was going to try and have it reseated but adjusted the price instead. There are a few marks on the carpet but they are mostly out of sight and it is still in really good shape. The paint is pretty good but does have some scratches and chips. They are not really noticable until you are up close to the car.  The paint on the top of the rear bumper has some stress marks bu tthe paint is not peeling. Lots of tread left on the tires. Brake pads will probably be due to be changed within a year - depending on your driving habits ;). It looks like the PO painted the center caps on the wheels so if it bothers you you could replace them. One of the lug nut covers has gone missing after I just had the tire pressure monitors installed.  I was going to replace them but thought the new owner might want to have chrome or black instead so I will leave that part up to you. Every once and a while the key will have a "sweet spot" but I just turn the key over and it works fine. The car drives properly and everything works the way it is supposed to - even the retractable headlights and power antenna.

The car has the following option codes:  Z51 - Performance Handling Package, UV6 - Head Up Display, G92 - 3.15 Performance Axle Ratio, AG2 - Six Way Power Passenger Seat, 1SC - Corvette Convertible Preferred Equipment Group 2 (Dual Zone AC, Fog Lamps, Memory Package, Adjustable Sport Bucket Seats, Twilight Sentinel, Power Telescoping and Manual Tilt Steering Column), UZ6 - Bose Speaker & Amplifier System, FE3 - Sport Suspension, AK5 - Driver and Passenger Air Bags.

Great car at a reasonable price.  I am not a mechanic but please feel free to ask any questions.  The car car is not perfect  but it is still a nice car and gets a lot of compliments due to its condition and rare color combination. Thank you but I am not looking to trade for anything.  As I stated we are looking to buy a house or else we would not be selling our toy!  I see that the CL scammers have been making their way onto Ebay - please don't waste my time with your scams as I will report you immediately!

Payment will be received in full before the car leaves my home.  I will assist however I can if the car needs shipped but the responsibility will be the buyers. 

 

Thank you for looking and good luck!

9/13/13

I believe that the Autocheck score is artifically low.

I noticed that Autocheck is indicating that there is an "issue" with the mileage.  The PO bought a third party service policy for the car and it appears that those monkeys reported the mileage incorrectly.  While I am sure it is possible to put 10,000 miles on a car in a little less than a month (from 8/11/11 to 9/9/11), it seems highly unlikely. As far as I know, you can not "roll back" a digital odometer. Unfortunately, I have no way of challenging the mileage reported by the service contract provider on 8/11/11, 9/9/11 or 9/26/11 but this is where the "issue" is stemming from.

Also, Autocheck is listing five (5) owners.  I believe that there has only been three (3). The PO moved from CA to TX and had a new title issued.  I had a title issued on 11/16/12, right after I purchased the car.  However, the lien was not properly recorded on the title at that time so I had to have it recorded again on 3/28/13. This makes it appear that the car changed hands when it did not as I have owned the car since 11/06/12. The lien was paid off in August of this year.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Stop-start standard in four-cylinder 2015 Chevrolet Impala

Fri, May 23 2014

Chevrolet has announced that it will include stop-start technology as standard in the entry level 2015 Impala. The result is a nearly five-percent improvement in city fuel economy, also known as one mile per gallon, up to 25 mpg, combined. The 3.6-liter V-6 Impala will not feature stop-start. The 2015 Impala comes equipped with Chevrolet's 2.5-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine, which will also offer 22 mpg in the city, and 31 on the highway. The 3.6-liter V-6 Impala will not feature stop-start and the mild-hybrid eAssist model from the 2014 MY, which got 29/25/35 combined/city/highway mpg, has been discontinued. Chevrolet spokesman Chad Lyons told Green Car Reports that not even one percent of the 2014 Impalas purchased were the Eco model. So Chevy is trying something different. With a seamless driving experience in mind, the new Impala's stop-start tech features software that governs under what conditions the feature will activate. The engine won't shut off if the car has not reached a speed of six miles per hour, so the start-stop won't be cycling during traffic jams. It can also fire the starter even if the engine has not come to a full stop, which quickens reaction time, particularly in instances of what Chevrolet calls "change-of-mind events." The stop-start function uses information about cabin temperature and humidity as well as battery charge to help determine whether or not to shut off the engine. The 2015 Impala has been engineered to reduce NVH, which will also help create a smoother stop-start experience for occupants, Chevy says. Motor mounts have been updated, and a burlier starter motor will help restart the engine after a stop. The Impala follows the 2014 Malibu as Chevrolet's second vehicle to feature stop-start tech. The four-cylinder model currently makes up over 30 percent of Impala sales. The 2015 Impala will be available beginning this summer, with a base MSRP of $27,735 (including destination charges). And while one MPG isn't a huge difference, neither is the price increase of just $50 for a bit of eco-minded innovation. Read on for more details in the press release below. Chevrolet Makes Stop/Start Standard in 2015 Impala Technology improves city fuel economy by 5 percent 2014-05-22 DETROIT – Stop/start technology will be standard on the 2015 Impala base 2.5-liter ECOTEC® engine, an addition that improves the vehicle's city fuel economy by nearly 5 percent, or one mile per gallon.

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown

Wed, Jan 29 2014

They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.
