Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : sharleen.norley@manlymail.net .
For sale is a 2012 Hennessey HPE 650 Camaro. I ordered the Camaro 2SS brand new from a local Chevrolet dealership
in the summer of 2011 and had the car shipped directly from the Chevrolet factory to Hennessey Performance in
Texas. After all modifications were complete at Hennessey I then took custody of the vehicle in December of 2011.
While at Hennessey I had the base HPE 650 package installed on the car (a detailed parts list for this package can
be found on the HPE website.) Additionally, I opted to have a more aggressive tune done on the car which voided
Hennessey's standard 3 year warranty but I wasn't overly concerned about that and the car has run beautifully
anyway. When dynoed in December of 2011 at Hennessey the car made 578 RWHP. Additional modifications done at
Hennessey include: Camaro Carbon Fiber Driveshaft, Driveshaft Shop High Performance Axles, Camaro Chasis Max Brace
by Hotchkis, Hotchkis Camaro Adjustable Sway Bars, Hotchkis Camaro Strut Brace and KW Coilover Suspension Variant 3
which lowered the car approximately 1" and gave it a much more aggressive stance.
Shortly after I received the car back from Hennessey I took it to No Limit Incorporated of Baltimore, MD for wheels
and tires. While the car was still being made I custom ordered four Savini Mono wheels with matte black paint,
20x11 in the rear and 20x10 up front. The wheels are wrapped with Pirelli P Zero tires, 305/35/20 rear and
275/40/20 front. After I had owned the car for about a year I noticed that the paint on the factory body kit was
starting to fade slightly and in my opinion it ruined the lines of the car. After Chevrolet told me that they
wouldn't fix the problem I took the car to D&V Auto Body of Dulles, VA to have the body kit paint re-matched to the
car. The new paint job came out flawless and has not shown any signs of fading due to the high quality paint used.
While the car was at D&V I had Seibon Carbon Fiber front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser installed. I also
had a custom black vinyl racing stripe put on and had all exterior badges removed from the car. At this point the
car still had the original axle back mufflers and it really restricted the unique growl that this engine is capable
of producing. I took the car to Atlantic Autosports of Virginia Beach, VA and had a Magnaflow axle back muffler
delete bolted on to the cat back exhaust that Henessey had already installed. The exhaust note of this vehicle is
extremely loud. Other minor upgrades include an MGW short throw shifter, 35% window tint and a Speedhut SST Max
Shift Light. I also have an unused Burton short throw with white 8ball grip that I will throw in as well.
Since the day I took the car home it has been garaged and has never spent more than a few hours in direct sunlight.
I completed a disciplined break in period and the car has always been thoroughly warmed up before being driven. I
have never drag raced or taken the car out to a track day. I have routinely changed the oil with Mobile One full
synthetic every three months regardless of whether the car has been driven or not. The interior of the car is
completely free of any cosmetic defects and looks and smells new. The exterior of the car has one small blemish on
the passenger side rear view mirror that I have been unable to buff out on my own. It can likely be repaired at an
auto body shop for a couple hundred dollars, I just haven't had the time to do it. I have all of the work orders
for modifications done on the car along with the original dyno chart and some service records, all can be produced
upon request for verification purposes. All said and done the car has nearly 50K invested on top of the price for a
brand new Camaro 2SS (42K). I am selling to free up some funds for another project

NHTSA investigating nearly 750,000 GM models over non-deploying airbags
Thu, Apr 15 2021Nearly 750,000 vehicles built by Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac are the subject of a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigation due to non-deploying driver-side airbags. While the investigation is ongoing, the agency believes the issue is likely due to rust particles that form on the inflator's connection terminal interface. The list of nameplates included in the investigation includes Chevrolet's Silverado, Tahoe, and Suburban, GMC's Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL, plus Cadillac's Escalade, Escalade ESV, CT4, CT5, and XT4. All of the potentially affected vehicles are 2020 or 2021 models, according to a bulletin published on the NHTSA's website. Investigators launched the probe in April 2021 after 15 consumers reported airbag-related issues, including nine who said an airbag malfunction light appeared in the instrument cluster. More alarmingly, the NHTSA is aware of six accidents that caused significant damage to the car's front end yet didn't trigger the driver's airbag. It adds that there are no fatalities linked to the issue, but there are six crashes and eight injuries reportedly blamed on it. No evidence suggests this problem is related to the millions of potentially deadly Takata inflators recalled over the past few years. General Motors is aware of the defect. It sent a technical service bulletin (TSB) to its dealers in March 2021 to address the aforementioned warning light. The note explains the issue is due to "rust particles in the connection terminal interface of the driver's airbag inflator." The company hasn't issued a safety recall yet, however. Whether it will partially depends on the NHTSA's findings. It's currently looking into the scope and the severity of the problem, and it wants to understand its implications on driver safety. Investigators will decide whether General Motors needs to recall the 749,312 cars that are part of the probe when they close their investigation. General Motors has already spent a significant amount of money replacing defective airbag-related parts in its cars. In November 2020, it was ordered by the American government to recall nearly 6 million pickup trucks and SUVs equipped with potentially dangerous Takata airbag inflators. It repeatedly argued that testing proved the inflators were safe, and it petitioned the agency four times starting in 2016 to avoid a recall, which cost an estimated $1.2 billion (about a third of its net income in 2020).
GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident
Fri, Dec 5 2014Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.
