Kalamazoo, Michigan, United States

Up for auction is a 1987 Chevy Nova/Toyota Corolla hatchback with a 4-cylindar-automatic driveline.  This one-owner car (we are the second) has only 93,200 miles on the odometer and is in very good overall condition.  It was purchased new by an older couple and used only in the summer months here in Michigan (they parked it every winter and vacationed in Florida).   It has spent most of its life in a garage and you can tell. There is little to no sun damage to car and all the glass is good.  The vehicle is surprisingly clean as you can see and has an amazingly solid, rust-free body.

This vehicle runs and drives well but the exhaust has white smoke, especially when you first start it.  The engine will surely require some repair or even a rebuild to bring it up to the proper specification.  The engine does have some new parts on it, listed below, but the overall condition of the motor is unknown and in not warrantied in any way.  Also, the headliner is falling in places and the left taillight is broken.  The Autocheck report notes one 'minor' accident (which accounts for the broken taillight with duct tape on it).

We picked this car up for my son to drive but he has purchased another, so I would like this one sold before the snow falls.  This car is based on a Toyota platform so if you are into this kind of car this is not one to pass up.  It is in amazing condition for a 26 year-old car.  There is very little wear and the vehicle was obviously not abused or 'thrashed' on.  Look over the high-resolution pictures and zoom right in.  Feel free to ask questions and/or come take a look at the car here in Kalamazoo before you bid.  No reserve.

Here is a rundown of the vehicle's details:

Platform: EA-82 (Fifth-generation Toyota Corolla)
Motor: 4A-C, 1.6 L 8-valve SOHC, 90 hp
Transaxle: 3-speed automatic, front-wheel drive
93,200 miles
Rust-free
Newer tires
New timing belt
New drive belts
New water pump
Very good exhaust system
Very good paint
Very good dash
Good interior overall though headliner is falling
Has one broken tail light

Note:  This vintage vehicle is drivable but nonetheless sold as-is for parts or repair with no guarantee or warranty.  Thanks for your bid.

2015 Chevy Volt gets larger battery, though range remains the same

Sat, Jul 19 2014

The Chevrolet Volt isn't changing much for the 2015 model year. According to specifications uncovered by Inside EVs, though, the new Volt's battery does have a slightly larger capacity. According to the spec sheet, this doesn't translate to increased range. Real world driving, though, might tell a different story. The 2015 Volt's battery storage is slightly higher than the outgoing model's, up from 16.5 kilowatt-hours to 17.1 kWh. According to GM's manager of electrification technology communications, Kevin Kelly, speaking to Green Car Reports, the increased capacity is "a late change done in the cell... just another continuous improvement to surprise and delight our customers." The stated electric range, however, stays at 38 miles. Inside EVs followed up on its original report, and found that drivers could see some advantage to the battery tweak. When they spoke to Kelly, he told them, "As a result of this change, we would expect that some customers may see a slight improvement in overall EV range." It's worth noting that when battery capacity increased from 16 kWh to 16.5 kWh for the 2013 Volt, electric range increased by three miles to the current 38, while MPGe went from 94 to 98. The price of the 2015 Chevrolet Volt remains steady, at $34,995. The actual cost to the customer is considerably less with the $7,500 federal tax credit, as well as any local incentives.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
