Up for your consideration is my 24 Hours of Lemans Commemorative Edition 2004 Corvette Z06. This particular car is build number 1266 of 2025. The '04 Commemorative Edition Z06 is arguably the most desirable C5 model and features a lightweight carbon fiber hood and is painted a gorgeous color, Lemans Blue. Only 2025 were built and 1700 were available stateside as the remaining number were destined for the european market. This model was also tested on the famed Nurburgring race track where it completed the course in under 8 minutes putting it in the upper class of super cars!
I searched long and hard to find a car of this pedigree. I purchased the car from the 69 year old original owner. It has been garaged kept it's entire life and has never been left outside over night. I have a complete and highly documented file on this car and I am willing to say it may be most documented Z06 currently available anywhere in the world! Documentation includes all service records since new, pre-delivery inspection from new, factory window sticker and build sheet, clean CarFax and much more. The car is washed every week and waxed every other weekend. I dry it with blown air and use silicone spray to treat the weather stripping. The wheels are washed inside and out. The car looks so nice that I am constantly asked if it is new or what year it is? You could eat off the engine and the underside....not that you would want to. The car has NEVER had any food or drinks in it and absolutely no smoke. The car has never been to redline and the rear tires have NEVER been spun...REALLY!
Look at the pictures, look at the documents, ask questions, come take a look at the car or send your mechanic to view it. I can assure you that you will NOT find a nicer '04 CE Z16. I am extremely picky and all of my cars are always better than described. I have received emails from past buyers that have told me that my cars are everything I have said they were and more. If you decide to buy this car you will not be disappointed as it is as nice as they come!
This car has some very nice aesthetic and reversible touches to enhance an already spectacular Z06. They include "rare" forged SSR GT-2H 18" wheels. 18" X 9.5" Front and 18" X 10.5" Rear with brand new Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's running 265/35-18 in front and 295/35-18 in the rear. All four wheels have custom 24 HR LeMans center caps color matched to the car along with custom lug nuts just for these wheels. It also features GM Durastop drilled brake rotors with semi-metallic high performance pads on all four corners. Other tasteful additions include clear DRL's and clear diamond cut rear side marker lights. The wheels and lighting match the stripes beautifully and really make the car pop! But wait....there's more! It also has had the steering column lock bypass and CAGS eliminator to rid of the dreaded locked column and 1-4 shift. For other performance enhancements I have installed a C6 Z06 shifter with custom one off "Jake" shift knob, trunk partition panel, and a "top of the line" CAI...a Callaway Honker. It also has a custom lighted exhaust enhancer plate and custom matched gas and dead pedals to compliment the factory pedals. The car has also been lowered 1" on the factory bolts along with a fresh 4 wheel alignment. The transmission and rear differential were recently service with fresh fluid and the oil has been changed every 3000 miles or less using only Mobil 1 and GM Duraguard "Gold" oil filters. All services of course, have been documented with product, date and mileage! There is also a shorty antennae for better looks and a factory set of european tailights....WOW!
Besides all of this the car came from the factory with every possible option available including the front license plate frame and BSM (Body Side Moulding) All of the enhancements could easily be reversed in a few hours and ALL of the "stock" parts, including the factory polished wheels and Goodyear tires come with the car! What are you waiting for? Don't miss this one!
As always, look at my feedback, ask me any questions, look at all the others....closely. Please only bid if you have the funds to complete the transaction. If you are looking for a 20K Z06 than move along as this is NOT that car. This auction is not a game. If you want to play games do so with someone else. Good Luck and God Bless America.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting? Vote in our poll below, then feel free to leave a few lines in Comments.

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
