2007 Chevrolet Corvette Zo6 Ex7 on 2040-cars
Sanibel, Florida, United States
For more details email me at: sonjasaantes@borofans.com . This car was built, not just customized, by Extreme Motorcar of Tampa, Inc., a professional exotic car restorer
and custom car builder. This is a "one of kind" exotic that has never before been offered to the public. The
vehicle has been a part of a private collection since its completion. For complete photo documentation of the
build, visit Extrememotorcar com .
Created because of a "bet" from a competitor, The Ex7 ( Extreme 700) was designed and built to beat the world's
best, all while being as comfortable as a Bentley but as economical as the most frugal Nissan . The Ex7 gets 34 MPG
at 80 miles running at 1750 rpm . And will do so for 4 hours straight ! ( its been tested 4 times...the cars
computer does not lie). Money was not the object. However, perfection was!!
The car's interior was completely disassembled and redone. There is hardly any plastic left in the car. Everything
is suede and grade A leather hides. Seats were re-formed for comfort and support. Custom embroidery on the seat
backs. Custom badging throughout. ( steering wheel included) Sound and heat retardant was laid down throughout the
entire interior.Go ahead, have a quiet and comfortable conversation at 100 mph. Talk on the cars speaker phone with
out disturbance. One Corvette dealer confessed they had NEVER driven a Corvette that was soooo quiet. A high end MB
Quartz stereo system was installed with 2 subs (with custom boxes) and 8 speakers placed through out. The Kenwood
Stereo head unit can do it all: DVD. FM/AM. iPod / iPhone connections. TV. Satellite. Navigation. Bluetooth. USB
connectors. Portable Remote control. Stereo Steering wheel controls. 2 cameras . One for back up and one for front
views. ( which is quite a trip at high speeds). Nothing has been over looked.
Now for the technical stuff. Reliable power does not come cheap. Doing ANYTHING right does not come cheap. But do
it right, and your results will be amazing. And we got amazing results !
Putting on a turbo or supercharger, anyone can do. Getting full power and reliability with excellent gas mileage
from your modifications is the hard part. An entire system was installed to create the ultimate "supercar".
Intercooler. 3 inch stainless steel exhaust. Matched exhaust manifolds. Custom computer software programmed for
comfortable street use with high performance capacity. High performance fuel injectors. Etc. ( we don't want to
give away ALL our secrets). Car has been lowered 2 inches. Custom badging on both side panels and rear facia. A
custom spoiler was hand made with a custom LED brake light installed inside the spoiler. The cars top was painted
black and widows darkened to match.
So accelerate from 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. Cruise at 80 mph and get 34 miles to a gallon. Travel across the U.S. in
comfort with ample luggage space and superior interior luxuries. Watch TV, movies or listen to your favorite music
from a world class audio system. This machine has it all. Incredible speed, ultimate luxury with remarkable fuel
economies.
I have driven every car imaginable. However nothing can match the speed , control , performance and luxury built
into this special AMERICAN made automobile. Drive her once. All else will pale by comparison.

GM adds 1,200 jobs at Detroit-Hamtramck plant
Thu, Oct 22 2015General Motors is making a big move at its Hamtramck, MI, factory, announcing it will add a second shift and hire over 1,200 workers within the next several months. It's expected that by early 2016, the factory will employ over 2,800 workers to build the Chevrolet Volt, Impala, Malibu, Cadillac ELR, and by early next year, the new CT6. According to GM Hamtramck spokesperson Courtney Zemke, 40 of the 1,200 positions are for salaried employees, while the remainder will be hourly positions. As for where these employees will go, positions are being made available across the factory, so GM isn't focusing on any particular area for its new hires. It's a similar story behind the hiring surge itself. GM said in its press release that the "second shift is necessary to meet forecasted market demand," a position Zemke reiterated. It's a matter of demand across the plant's portfolio, rather than any one particular product seriously outstripping supply. Naturally, the United Auto Workers is happy with the move. "The workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck is second to none," UAW Local 22 Shop Chairman Don LaForest said in the attached release. "We appreciate the opportunity to expand our UAW-GM family." Hiring is going on now, with the second shift slated to get underway in early 2016. GM's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly to Add Second Shift and More Than 1,200 Jobs Plant will nearly double its workforce by early 2016 2015-10-22 DETROIT – General Motors is nearly doubling its workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly by adding a second shift and more than 1,200 hourly and salaried jobs. The addition of a second shift will increase the plant's workforce to approximately 2,800 people when hiring is completed. The second shift is necessary to meet forecasted market demand for the five cars produced at Detroit-Hamtramck. "This is the result of the award-winning vehicles Detroit-Hamtramck produces and the confidence GM has in our team to build world-class quality for our customers," said Plant Manager Gary West. Second shift hiring is underway, and the shift is scheduled to begin operations in early 2016. "The workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck is second to none," said UAW Local 22 Shop Chairman Don LaForest. "We appreciate the opportunity to expand our UAW-GM family." The 4.1 million-square-foot Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly opened in 1985. GM has invested $1 billion in the plant over the last six years, making it one of the company's most-agile manufacturing facilities in North America.
Next Chevy Silverado could get this built-in tailgate step
Thu, Feb 2 2017General Motors just received patent approval for a tailgate step in a pickup bed. And given the timing, don't be surprised if you see this on the upcoming 2019 Silverado pickup (not the mention its GMC Sierra twin), expected to arrive in late 2018. According to the patent, granted in December of last year, the whole mechanism is housed in the tailgate assemble. The magic happens when a portion of the top half of the tailgate swings down and a step folds out. There's also a handle that locks into position to help climb up into the bed. As trucks get bigger and taller over the years, it gets harder and harder to access the cargo bed. Ford's solution with the 2009 F-150 was a step that slides out from the end of the tailgate. Back then, Chevy made an ill-advised ad highlighting the feature for Ford. And while Howie Long mocked the F-150's "man step" Ford saw almost a third of its trucks with the option in the first year. The GM design seems to improve on Ford's idea as it appears to be wider and has a back to the lower step. That is, you don't have to worry about stepping through the ladder-rung design as on the F-150. Ford's tailgate step later spread to the F Super Duty, and other cargo access assists have proliferated through the truck world. On the most recent redesign, the Chevrolet Silverado took a trick from the Avalanche and added cutouts to the corners of the rear bumper that act as a foothold. Ford also offers a deployable side step, Chevrolet has running boards that scoot rearward with a kick of the boot, and Ram offers fixed wheel-to-wheel side rails. Nissan is in on the game too, with an optional folding step that tucks under the rear bumper. We don't expect Chevrolet to comment on when or if we'll see this feature in the showrooms. But given that engineers are already hard at work on the next Silverado and the timing of this patent lines right up with the new truck's development cycle, we'll be disappointed if this patent stays in the file cabinet.

Burt Reynolds' vehicles up for auction at Barrett-Jackson
Tue, Sep 25 2018Burt Reynolds' influence on car culture cannot be overstated. Be it "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Cannonball Run," his films inspired a generation of car enthusiasts. He died a few weeks back from cardiac arrest at age 82. This weekend, four vehicles from Reynolds' personal collection — three Pontiacs and a Chevy — will go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. It seems Reynolds had plans to sell the cars before he passed. He even filmed a short teaser for the auction and planned to attend the event himself. Three of the cars are Pontiac Trans Ams. Two are re-creations of the cars he drove in "Bandit" and the film "Hooper." Both are 1978 models. The third Trans Am is from 1984 and was used to promote Reynolds' USFL team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth vehicle is a 1978 Chevy R30 pickup truck. It's styled like the truck he drove in "Cannonball Run." None of the vehicles were actually used in the movies. But they were registered in his name, making them far more legitimate than some other movie-inspired clones. It's unclear how many Bandit Trans Ams Reynolds has owned over the years. Another car connected to him sold for $450,000 back in 2014. His death is sure to drive the price of these new cars even higher.
