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!

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.

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven
Wed, Feb 8 2023POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods. However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows. Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS. Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence. Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
Chevrolet SS previewed by Holden VF Commodore SS V show car
Thu, 14 Feb 2013It won't be long before we see the official, production-ready Chevrolet SS sedan (hint: it will be revealed this weekend). And to tide us over until all of the official details are released about the US-spec version, we have this: the Holden VF Commodore SS V show car, a performance-oriented brother to the Calais V that debuted earlier in the week.
What we really want to know about the SS V is what lies underhood, but General Motors' Australian arm is keeping that under wraps until the Chevy model breaks cover this weekend. Nevertheless, it's obvious that the SS V will be a serious performer, with all sorts of aggressive cues driving that home on the car's exterior. Take a look at those 20-inch billet aluminum wheels that hide big Brembo brake calipers up front, the sculpted hood and front fascia, the wide air intakes with LED running lights and the quad exhaust pipes out back. It's like the Pontiac G8 GXP never even left us.
Inside, there's a sporty-looking interior with aluminum accents that mix in with black leather and suede surfaces, all tied together in the middle with an eight-inch MyLink touchscreen infotainment system. It looks great, and again, while we don't know anything regarding powertrain details, it makes us oh-so happy to see a manual shifter smack dab in the middle of the center console.
GMC Canyon, Chevy Colorado diesels finally heading to dealers
Fri, Jan 1 2016Customers who have been waiting to receive their diesel-powered Chevrolet Colorados and GMC Canyons should be relived to hear that GM will finally start to ship them out of the Wentzville Assembly Plant. "The highly anticipated 2016 GMC Canyon diesel has begun shipping to dealers," a company spokesperson confirmed to The Detroit News. The trucks originally had a fall launch date, but a final review forced a delay in deliveries. The 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel in the midsize trucks produces 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and the company touts the engine's low emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board even put the mill through extra scrutiny with a real world test in the wake of VW's diesel scandal, and the Duramax passed with no problems. At that time, a Chevy spokesperson told Autoblog that the models' launch was on track. The Duramax engine adds $3,730 to the price of a comparable V6 model, but they're the most fuel-efficient pickups on the market. The EPA estimates the twins at 31 miles per gallon highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined in two-wheel drive form and 29/20/23 with four-wheel drive. Buyers likely can't wait to finally experience these pickups after reading a heap of positive reviews. The Colorado diesel recently earned Motor Trend's Truck of the Year award. We also came away impressed with it during our First Drive and liked the Canyon during our Quick Spin. Related Video:
