2010 Chevrolet Camaro Black/black/black Plus 50k/1 Year Gm Warranty on 2040-cars
Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States
1 owner. I've owned this Camaro for close to 4 years now and it's been great to me the entire time. I'm selling the car because I just finished school and I need the money to help with living expenses :/
More about the car... It's a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro LS that I got brand new in May 2010. It has the 312HP LLT V6 engine w/ 6-speed Manual transmission. Black exterior/black interior/black 18" Heritage wheels. The hood and trunk originally had red rally stripes on them but I've put black vinyl stripes on top. The Good: Everything on this car works. AC, power windows, locks, radio, MP3 input, OnStar, all electronics, etc. The Camaro has a 4-Star front crash rating. 5-Star side crash rating. And a 5-Star rollover resistance rating. Does 19 MPG City & 29 MPG Highway on 87 Regular (no unnecessary 93 Premium prices!). The engine recently got completely replaced under warranty and has less than 2k miles on it and it has been running perfectly since the install. Also has a brand new clutch & flywheel rated for 400+ HP since I was planning on doing a turbo build but didn't go through with it. There is still 50,000+ miles left in the GM 100k Extended Warranty (I've used less than half), so if anything on the car gives you any issues you're completely covered! The interior was just completely steam-cleaned, shampooed, & detailed. The next major service is in 7,000 miles when the odometer hits 50k. The current tires will definitely last a few thousand miles past that. Probably needs an oil change in 2-3000 miles after you get it. Runs on Mobil 1 Synthetic. The Bad: 1. The paint isn't perfect. But then again show me a black car that's been daily driven for 4 years that has perfect paint. It has a few light scratches and other imperfections but after talking to my detailer, he believes they can come out with a rotary buffer which I think you could DIY or take to a detail place. 2. Not immune to the 1st gear refusal. If you have not heard of this let me explain: On 95% of V6 Manual 5th generation Camaros and some Corvettes there is a known "issue" from the factory. What happens is that when you are stopped and in neutral, you go to put the shifter into first gear, however sometimes you will notice the shifter won't let you slide into first or only lets you halfway in. The cause of this issue hasn't been pinpointed in the 4 years that the Camaro has been out. The fix that GM released in a Technical Service Bulletin was to put it back into neutral, pump the clutch once and put it into first. This has worked for me every time I've had to do this. I've heard of some people getting a new transmission under warranty because of this "problem". It never bothered me enough in my 4 years to get it replaced, but if you feel the need, you're covered under GM warranty. 3. There is a small crack in the windshield (smaller than a dollar bill) shown in the picture, but I've gotten it sealed with resin by SafeLite so it just looks like a spider web crack now. The Indifferent: One thing that I changed with this car is the front bumper. I swapped out the V6 bumper for the V8 Super Sport bumper which has the mailslot on top and has the lower "chin spoiler" which I think gives the car a more aggressive look. This is strictly a cosmetic modification. I installed a Barton Pistol Grip Short Throw Shifter which lets you row through the gears faster and in my opinion makes the car more fun to drive. I used to have the 20" 5-spoke Super Sport wheels but I have since sold those. If you really fancy those wheels, I got my set for $300 on the Camaro5 Marketplace. They trend around $500 but if you monitor it you can get lucky & find a set for pretty cheap. I know they really change the look of the car and make it look $5,000 more expensive but in reality the wheels are only worth about $500. Browse here. I've loved this car every mile I've driven it and I know she's got plenty more miles of fun in her. She still turns heads of on-lookers & entices street racers every time I take her out for a drive even 4 years after being out! It's a great car and I'm pricing it to be sold asap just because I need to pay for a place to stay. I'm open to offers and negotiations. Thanks for looking and feel free to message me with any questions you have. |

2019 Toyota Avalon vs. full-size sedans: How they compare on paper
Mon, Apr 23 2018Full-size sedans aren't exactly in great demand at the moment, and at least one of the vehicles in this comparison has been rumored to be on the endangered species list. Yet, we've just had our first drive in the 2019 Toyota Avalon, and if anything has a chance of rejuvenating the segment a bit, it's an all-new version of what has long been the segment's benchmark. To see how the new Avalon compares, we've put together the below spreadsheet featuring the Avalon's primary apples-to-apples rivals, the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala. We also included the Nissan Maxima, which is comparable in price, sales and non-luxury badge, and which offers the sort of increased driver engagement promised by the new Avalon XSE and Touring trim levels. We also included the outgoing Avalon for reference as well as that car's luxury cousin, the Lexus ES, which can definitely be cross-shopped with the luxuriously trimmed Avalon Limited. You can use our Compare Cars tool to create your own comparison, such as one featuring the rear-wheel-drive Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger or even Kia Stinger. Alright, enough chit chat. On to the spreadsheet. Performance and fuel economy The GM sedans may come standard with four cylinders, including a mild hybrid system in the LaCrosse, but puh-lease. The V6 is the name of the game in this segment, with outputs now surpassing the 300-horsepower mark. The LaCrosse is the horsepower and torque champ, though it also weighs a bit more than the new 2019 Avalon, so acceleration is likely to be comparable. The Impala weighs a lot more and has only a six-speed automatic, so despite having a wee bit more power, one should expect it to be pokier (not a good sign for a car rumored to be on the chopping block). One would expect the Maxima's 300 hp and lowest curb weight to result in the quickest acceleration, but then it's also strapped to a CVT, which despite being better than ever, is still a CVT. Things get worse for Chevy when you consider the Impala's base four-cylinder gets the same 25 mpg combined as the Avalon's V6 — once again a segment best. Now, should you really prioritize fuel economy, the 2019 Toyota Avalon Hybrid really stands out with a 43 mpg rating (or 44 with the base XLE trim) that bests the outgoing Avalon Hybrid. Honestly, after driving this new Hybrid, it actually seems like it would be the best bet for most buyers. There's sufficient power, and it only costs $1,000 more than the comparable V6 version.
Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?
Wed, Mar 9 2016You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names
Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
