2005 Chevrolet Corvette - Fully Loaded - 6.0l Dsom --over $7k In Upgrades!! on 2040-cars
|
Up for sale a beautiful, highly upgraded 2005 Chevrolet
Corvette that just passed 60k miles.
I bought this car in TX a few years back and
have loved every minute of driving it. Sadly the AF has moved me out to
CA and due to the performance upgrades I can't register it here. Since
the registration from SC is going to run out soon, I am forced to part with it.
Your chance to get a great car with a lot of awesome work done to
it. This car is fully loaded with
just about every option, at the bottom of the listing I’ll include the codes
and associated options so you can see exactly what it has.
Upgrades to this car include the following:
Full rework of the clutch and clutch system
including:
Tick & Monster
Complete Clutch Swap Package ($1250)
http://www.tickperformance.com/tick-monster-complete-clutch-swap-package-05-08-corvette-z06/
This clutch is fully adjustable to your preference and bleeding
the entire system is now super easy because I have installed a remote bleeder
line. All the hydraulic lines are now braided stainless (far better them GMs
rubber hoses) and routed far away from the exhaust heat. Nothing to worry about with your clutch again.
All new exhaust system from block to tips
including:
Melrose Motorsports LS2 Corvette Header system ($1600) http://www.melrosecorvette.com/2005-2007-ls2-corvette-header-system/
LG
Motorsports GT4 cat-back muffler kit ($1000) http://www.lgmotorsports.com/product_info.php?cPath=343_435&products_id=2070
Here’s the deal with this exhaust, I got a good deal on the LG
mufflers so I thought I would try them.
Personally, they are too loud for me and there is some drone between
about 1800 and 2500 RPM. I bought a
lightly used Z06 exhaust that I was planning on swapping out but have just run
out of time and now am deploying soon.
Let me know if you would like me to include the Z06 exhaust (worth a few
hundred at least) or even have it swapped out prior to having the car sent to
you.
Suspension and chassis work to include:
Replacing sway bars, shocks and mono leafs with almost new OEM Z51
components and lowering the car appx 1” ($500).
A new heat-shielded tunnel brace ($120). The car is much stiffer, the tunnel brace controls the body and frame flex and also shields the interior from the exhaust heat. Overall the car rides much better, has tighter control with less roll and sway in the turns.
All new intake system including:
Vararam VR-SC1 Gen2 SnakeCharmer cold air intake ($300) http://www.vararam.com/sc1.html
I had both the throttle
body and intake plenum bored and polished ($300)
New spark plugs and MSD Super Conductor wires
($150)
New Duralast Gold Battery ($140)
I also sent the ECU out for tuning to take
advantage of the new airflow and increase throttle response and
performance. They also programmed out
the 1-4 skip-shift so now you get to decide what gear you want to be in, not
the car. ($150)
Interior:
Sound and heat deadening throughout entire cabin ($400) This
greatly reduces the heat soak into the cabin and makes it where you don’t need
to run your AC just to make a drive livable. No more hot drinks in the cup
holders!
Hydrocarbon wrapped
center console finished in 2008 GM Hydrocarbon ($300)
Matching carbon fiber door release bezels ($140) http://www.performancecorvettes.com/products/Corvette-C6-Carbon-Fiber-Door-Release-Bezels.html
Kenwood DVD/Navigation system ($200)
At around 56k miles the anti-theft column steering
lock sounded a little slow to retract so I had the Chevrolet dealership in Mt
Pleasant, SC replace the entire pin motor assembly ($1000). While there, I
had them perform the TSB/service bulletins to install a new under dash wiring clip
and replace the recalled removable hood panel.
I also had a Corvette specialty shop (MSI
Corvettes in Roseville, CA - http://motorsportimage.com) preemptively replace
the harmonic balancer once I got to 60k miles. ($1000) They also
replaced all the belts and gave the car a thorough check.
Again, only selling this car because the AF
moved me to CA and can’t register it here and I’m being deployed out before too
long. I need to sell it relatively soon
and this is a great chance for you to get a car with all the work done and at a
deep discount to you.
This car has always been smoke and pet
free. There are some smell scratches and
scuffs here and there which I have close up pics of and can send your way. Right now one of the TPMS is reading zero so
I’ll take it to the dealership this week to have it checked out, I’m suspecting
it needs to be re-calibrated.
I have over 80 pictures of the car and it’s easy
for me to take more of anything requested.
Just let me know what you would like.
Please contact me with any questions you have, I’m working evenings this
weekend but will find time to talk with you about any questions you have.
Included: CarCraft Custom fit cover ($200) 2 Keyless remotes and keys
Shipping: I realize that the buyer will most likely be outside of CA and as such I will drive the car up to 2 hours (ie Reno, NV) Even if you decide to have the car shipped I could drop it off in NV to save some on shipping costs. Contact me and we can work out any details.
Payment: Paypal works great for deposits, we can work out the details on the payment method, but money orders or cashier’s checks would be the easiest.
Clear SC Title. No Salvage History. No Rebuilt
History. No Flood Damage. No Liens.

Stop-start standard in four-cylinder 2015 Chevrolet Impala
Fri, May 23 2014Chevrolet 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.
GM opens military discount to 21M veterans and their spouses
Thu, Apr 7 2016May marks the start of National Military Appreciation Month, and General Motors is getting into the spirit by expanding its military discount program to, well, just about everyone. That includes a total of 21 million military veterans and their spouses, along with the current slate of active duty, reserve, and National Guard members. The discount can slash thousands of dollars off the price of a new Buick, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicles, with Automotive News listing an $1,100 discount on the top gas-powered version of the Malibu, the Premiere. Those that want a bit more spice can get $1,700 off the price of a last-generation 2015 Camaro SS, while truck buyers will enjoy $3,000 off the Chevy Silverado All Star. That's just a start, though, since the military discount can be paired with other GM incentives. The discount doesn't apply to everything, though. Some are understandable – none of Cadillac's vehicles are included in the deal, nor is the Corvette Z06. You'll also be unable to apply the discount to a range of base-level trims, like the Chevy Cruze or Equinox L, the base Colorado, or the entry level GMC Acadia, Canyon, and Terrain. A full list is available at GM's dedicated military discount website. GM's expanded discount plan runs from today through May 31.

The biggest gas-guzzlers of 2024: 'The Meanest List' is the opposite of greenest cars
Thu, Mar 14 2024In some circles — especially some automotive circles — bigger is better. This explains the Hummer, for example. In its so-called “Meanest List” of a dozen models, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) makes no apologies for berating “the worst-performing mass market automobiles” sold in 2024 in the U.S. The most diminutive car on the list is a Chevy Corvette Z06. At the top of this particular heap is the Mercedes-Benz AMG G63, a gas-powered SUV that the environmental agency says was “the worst-performing vehicle of the more than 1,200 models assessed by Greener Cars and has an annual fuel cost over $4,000.” Not to mention its MSRP of around $184,000. Rank Make & Model Powertrain Green Score MSRP Estimated Annual Fuel Cost* 1 Mercedes-Benz AMG G63 Gas 20 $184,000 $4,242 2 Ram 1500 TRX 4x4 Gas 22 $98,335 $3,819 3 Ford F150 Raptor R Gas 24 $79,975 $3,777 4 Cadillac Escalade V Gas 26 $152,295 $3,388 5 Dodge Durango SRT Gas 26 $74,995 $3,332 6 Jeep Wrangler 4dr 4X4 Gas 27 $35,895 $3,260 7 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4x4 Gas 28 $91,945 $3,058 8 Mercedes-Benz G550 Gas 28 $143,000 $3,186 9 GMC Hummer EV SUV EV 29 $98,845 $1,746 10 GMC Sierra Gas 29 $37,700 $3,069 11 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Gas 30 $114,395 $3,169 12 Mercedes-Benz Maybach S680 Gas 30 $234,300 $3,031 *ACEEE analysis using EIA data of the annual cost of driving 15,000 miles In terms of numbers, the dirty dozen of the meanest includes seven SUVs and three trucks. Lonely at the middle of the list is the sole electric, the GMC Hummer EV, which weighs in at 9,000 pounds. The council notes that “though EVs have lower emissions than similarly sized gasoline models, the Hummer demonstrates that size and efficiency, not just fuel source, are important factors in a carÂ’s environmental impact.” ItÂ’s also worth reminding prospective buyers that the average fuel cost of a vehicle on the “Greenest List” eats up only a fifth of the fuel cost of a vehicle on the Meanest List, “showing that greener options can also be more affordable.” The ACEEE also put out a "Greener List" of efficient gasoline and hybrid cars that don't require plugging in. By the Numbers Green Cadillac Chevrolet Dodge Ford GMC Hummer Jeep Maybach Mercedes-Benz RAM Emissions Fuel Efficiency Green Automakers Truck SUV Electric Hybrid
