Corvettes should only be available in one color, and one color only....bright, bright, Fire Engine Red!  Known as "Torch Red" in 1996, this gorgeous, unmolested Corvette still wears it's original black top and features an awesome matching red leather interior!  Never satisfied with the status quo, the Corvette's owner chose to accent the perfect factory color scheme with an awesome set of aftermarket chromed alloy wheels....the result is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!  (By the way, I hand-waxed this car today [Meguiars Paste Wax] and this paint is about the nicest factory finish I've ever seen...no car wash swirls or scratches...virtually perfect!)


My friend Paul bought this car from Gateway Chevrolet in Fargo, ND in September of 2000, with only 30,000 miles on the odometer.   Since then, he has driven it sparingly and responsibly (mostly on longer vacation trips), serviced it regularly and kept it inside when not being driven.  It's never been hit, never been smoked in, never been abused and commands attention wherever it's driven.

It starts easily, idles smoothly, has PLENTY of power, shifts smoothly, rides firmly with no shimmy, no shake, no rattles or shortcomings of any kind.  Every single option on this car works perfectly, as it did the day it came off the line.  A/C, Tilt Wheel, Cruise Control, 300 HP 5.7 Liter Multi-Port Fuel Injected Engine, Automatic Transmission with Overdrive, Delco-Bose AM/FM/Cassette/CD, Power Driver's Seat, Multi-Position Lumbar Support (both seats), Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirrors, and much, much more!

SHORTCOMINGS:  The car has an exceptional finish, but does have a handful of small nicks and/or chips in the paint.  There is also a single door ding on the door guard molding of the passenger door.  Also, the vertical weatherstripping on the convertible top (where the side-windows seal against the top) is weather-checked on both sides (but still water-tight).

We want you to be absolutely comfortable and confident when bidding on this Classic American Sports Car so don't hesitate to give me a call if you have any questions or want to arrange a test-drive or inspection (Jon at 701-840-8038).

If you want to fly in and drive her home, we'll gladly pick you up at the Fargo, ND airport (FAR).  If you wish to have the car shipped, we will accommodate your shipper any way we can.

Check my feedback and bid with confidence...NO DISAPPOINTMENTS HERE!

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

Surprise! GM putting aluminum in next-gen pickups

Wed, Aug 5 2015

Last month, General Motors launched a series of ads touting the benefits of steel over aluminum – specifically, with regard to the Chevy Silverado versus the Ford F-150. (Kind of. We're not sure what a grizzly bear has to do with anything.) We took issue with the ads, with editor in chief Mike Austin saying they "reek of insecurity, and distract from the Silverado's strengths that could be used for positive advertising." But what bothers us more, is that yet another report surfaced claiming anti-aluminum GM will indeed use the weight-saving material in its next-generation fullsize trucks. On Tuesday, GM announced a $877-million investment for its truck plant in Flint, MI. But Reuters says that huge overhaul is because the trucks will use "substantially different equipment than the tools GM uses today." The report specifically states, "People familiar with the company's plans say GM's next-generation pickups and SUVs will make use of various materials, including aluminum and lightweight steel, to shed weight and gain fuel efficiency to meet tougher federal standards." The Silverado already uses a few aluminum components in the engine and hood, and if more widespread use will help GM build its best fullsize trucks ever, then that's great. Honestly, we have no reason to doubt that aluminum will be used in the next Silverado and GMC Sierra. We just hope GM remembers that nothing is ever truly deleted from the bowels of the Internet when it launches the subsequent "look how great aluminum is!" campaign.
