If you google 1993 Corvette Specifications, you will see that the torch red exterior with the torch red interior, was the poster child for 1993, however not very many were produced. Only 14% of the corvettes in 93 were manufactured with a torch red exterior and far, far less than that percentage, were made with a torch red interior, to go with it. This car also contains the the deluxe option package of torch red leather, adjustable power seats (almost $2k) and combining of all those factors, I have never seen another one like this. The car also has a one piece removeable roof which is also factory painted, torch red. The GM factory spec sheet says that they were only made in blue or bronze tint, so I'm not sure if this was a special order or not but at the least, is very rare and unusual. Unfortuneately GM does not keep those records. The car contains GM's premium, 'corvette preferred equiptment group one', their top of the line option package (see original window sticker) which added alomost $5k to to the base package and includes; a electronic climate control system, a Bose music system, including am/fm, cd and cassete, leather adjustable power sport bucket seats, selective ride control, larger tires and has beautiful gold kick plates on each door with the '40th anniversary' logo, as well as the 40th anniversary logo embroidered on each seat headrest.The car's sticker price was $39,974 and add to that dealer added options of clearcoat coating applied to the paint and dealer applied window tinting, with lifetime warranty and the car's total cost was $41,169. Add all these together and I don't think you can find another corvette like this one, a very classy combination. I've been told by at least three turnpike toll takers that its the nicest vette they've ever seen, regardess of model or year. Engine, transmission and drivetrain perform smoothly and flawlessly and the car has all the power and torque you could want. Not to be confused with the special 40th anniversary with ZR1 high performace package in burgandy. This model is a much better looking, classier and a more reliable car. My daughter stepped on the remote a few few years back, so although I have it, it doesn't work. I've seen them offered on ebay for $100-150 but I never bothered to pursue one. Tires are all very good, new parts include a new battery, new rear brakes, a new drivers seat pan with motors to make operation smoother. I've just had the AC upgraded to todays freon and AC system spec's, it's been certified it to blow cold to 43 degrees. Selling the car because I have sold the house and garage, that it's been stored in. The car comes complete with all the documentation that was provided by the dealer with the car, at the time of purchase, so the new owner will be assured it is 100% original and also provides historical traceability, very rare to have with any car. The documentation are all in very good condition and includes the following; the original window sticker, the original sales receipt, the original sales receipt for the dealer added options of Clear Coat and Window Tinting with the lifetime warranty card, the leather bound operators manual, the original coverage agreement papers for the GM protection plan, the dealers pre-delivery inspection procedure checklist, the original warranty paperwork, a corvette roadside assistance booklet, the chevrolet warranty and owner assistance booklet, a chevrolet owner satisfaction booklet, a corvette 40 year history booklet, the original corvette pen light, notepad and a 40th anniversary sweatshirt which has never beeen worn. See pictures for all of these items described. |

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

Weekly Recap: Lincoln Continental serves up the style, Cadillac CT6 delivers the substance in New York
Sat, Apr 4 2015Lincoln and Cadillac grabbed the spotlight this week at the New York Auto Show in a dramatic fashion that evoked the brands' glory days. America's two luxury carmakers went toe-to-toe with their glittering reveals and plans for ambitious expansion. Both were selling their technology, style and the promise of a better future. Cadillac vs. Lincoln. At the Javits Center, 2015 seemed a lot like 1956. Neither company was interested in drawing comparisons with the other, which is fair, and accurate. They're in vastly different places in terms of sales and the pace of their turnarounds, but they hope to reach the same eventual destination at the pinnacle of the luxury-car world. Lincoln used the element of surprise to great effect with the Continental concept. A production version is still at least a year away, and the company was vague on details. Officially, we don't even know if it is front- or rear-wheel drive, though speculation abounds. Who cares? The seats can be adjusted 30 ways! The Continental also showed off a bold chrome grille that will be the new face of Lincoln. The blue bomber also rolled on blinged-out 21-inch polished aluminum wheels, used a 3.0-liter EcoBoost engine and had huge LED head lights with "laser-assisted" high beams. All of this resulted in almost blinding attention. The concept drew rave reviews, stirred controversy with Bentley designers who argued Lincoln ripped them off, and most importantly, pointed a way forward for the newly determined brand that hopes to compete with Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Cadillac and Lexus.

With production starting late this year, Cadillac had more specifics at the ready. Engines? Cadillac has a couple V6s and a turbo four for sure. It's working on a hybrid, and has considered a V-Series variant. It's based on a new rear-wheel-drive, aluminum-intensive chassis called Omega, features an advanced collision-mitigation system with automatic braking and has a cabin that's laden with "leathers, exotic woods and carbon fiber." It will be assembled at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck factory and goes on sale next year. At this point, Cadillac is more than willing to talk about every except for the price. The devil was not in the details for Cadillac, as evidenced by the CT6. But it wasn't for Lincoln either.
