This is a truly awesome car: It gets approx. 29mpg on the highway and is comfortable enough to be used as a daily driver. With that said, it is also capable of competing with some of the most expensive supercars in the world. I am the second owner and have had the car since 7,800 miles and absolutely love it, but I may be moving soon and have gotten to the point that I need a truck or an SUV. The car has approx. 48,000 miles and has been garage kept. The velocity yellow turns a lot of heads and does a great job staying clean in between washes! This Z06 does have the navigation and heated two-tone leather seats in addition to the heads up display and is stock with the exception of a K&N filter/cold air intake. It is in great condition and has been serviced every 3,000 miles with Mobile 1 synthetic and has only had premium 93 + octane gas. This is a clean, good looking car and is a lot of fun to drive. P lease let me know if you have any questions, need additional pictures or would like to come see the car in person. http://www.corvettemuseum.org/ specs/2006/ LS7 7.0-liter/427-cubic-inch Gen IV V-8 with lightweight reciprocating components 505 horsepower (373 kw) at 6200 rpm 475 lb.-ft. of torque (657 Nm) at 4800 rpm 7000 rpm redline Titanium connecting rods and intake valves Dry-sump engine lubrication system Engine hand-built at GM’s new Performance Build Center Aluminum body structure with one-piece hydroformed perimeter rails frame and magnesium front cradle Fixed roof design optimizes body rigidity and aerodynamics Carbon-fiber composite front fenders and front wheelhouses Unique front fascia incorporating a larger grille, cold-air scoop and lower air splitter Wide-body rear fenders and a unique rear spoiler incorporated with the CHMSL Huge 14-inch (355-mm) cross-drilled front disc brakes with six-piston calipers and 13.4-inch (340-mm) cross-drilled rear rotors with four-piston calipers 18 x 9.5-inch front wheels with 275/35ZR18 tires and 19 x 12-inch rear wheels with 325/30ZR19 tires 3-inch-diameter exhaust with bi-mode mufflers and larger polished stainless steel tips Engine, transmission and differential oil coolers; and steering cooler Rear-mounted battery to improve weight distribution Unique interior features including revised gauge cluster and lightweight two-tone seats with more aggressive bolsters Curb weight of 3130 pounds / 1419.7 kg (estimated) 3 inches (76.2 mm) wider than other Corvette models Vehicle developed simultaneously with C6-R racecar. http://www.motortrend.com/ roadtests/coupes/112_0510_ 2006_chevrolet_corvette_z06/ http://www.edmunds.com/ chevrolet/corvette/2006/road- test1.html

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
GM Recalls 218,000 Chevy Aveo Models Over Fire-Prone Lighting
Wed, May 21 2014The recall train keeps on rolling for General Motors. Hot on the heels of its recent 2.4 million-vehicle recall of various models, it's now calling in 218,000 Chevrolet Aveo units from the 2004-2008 model years because they could catch fire. The problem concerns the daytime running light module in the instrument panel. It could overheat, melt and cause a fire. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, "We are aware of some fires," and the company "is still investigating." Adler wouldn't comment about how many fires were reported or when the automaker was first aware of this issue because of the ongoing analysis. However, he said the issue has not caused any injuries or fatalities. GM also doesn't have a fix for the problem with the DRL module yet. The company says in its recall statement to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the remedy "is still under development." Adler wasn't sure when it would be ready, but he said Aveo owners would receive notification in the mail "relatively soon." They will receive a second letter later to schedule the repair. In a separate letter about the Aveo's problem to NHTSA (viewable here as a PDF), GM said its Executive Field Action Decision Committee decided to conduct the recall on May 16. Scroll down for the recall report. RECALL Subject : Daytime Running Light Module Overheating Report Receipt Date: MAY 19, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V261000 Component(s): Potential Number of Units Affected: 218,000 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Chevrolet Aveo vehicles equipped with daytime running lights (DRL). In the affected vehicles, there may be heat generated within the DRL module located in the center console in the instrument panel, which could melt the DRL module. CONSEQUENCE: If the DRL module melts due to the heat generation, it could cause a vehicle fire. REMEDY: The remedy for this recall campaign is still under development. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). General Motors recall number for this campaign is 14236. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
