Up for bid is a 1985 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Station Wagon in real nice driving condition. This car comes with original paperwork including the original window sticker in good shape, the owners manual with warranty books and card packet and dealers brochure. The car is white on the exterior and dark blue on the interior. It has a 305 V8 with automatic transmission with overdrive. It has 74314 original miles. This car came with full perimeter frame, front stabilizer bar, full coil suspension, heavy duty front suspension, power disc drum brake setup, full bench front seat with fold down armrest, quiet sound group, dual horns, full carpeting, cigarette lighter, quartz clock, full wheel covers, tinted glass, body side moldings, intermittent wipers, electric rear window defroster and air deflector, air conditioning, sport mirrors with drivers remote, limited slip differential, roof carrier and AM radio with dual front speakers. The locks and windows are not power. Rear window does go down when turning the key in rear door. This car is like going back in time. The original floor mats are even nice. Dash is excellent. Car has no major rust on body anywhere. Even under the car its relatively clean. The car has a couple minor scratches and a small dimpled area by back passengers side but not creased and may pop right out if you get behind it as picture shows. I decided to sell this car as it is as the area with the dimple is hardly noticeable. The wheel covers originally were plain looking but are now wire wheel factory GM wheel covers and are correct for the time period. They were completely disassembled, waxed and cleaned and look stunning in the sun light. The original owner had put new snow tires on the rear even though not much winter driving took place and they are still on it but it still rides fine. The white walls on the tires are all turned in and could easily be turned out if you decide to do that after you purchase it. The battery was just replaced after I bought it as the car only had 400 miles put on it in the last 5 years. I installed a brand new Diehard in April 2013 and the inspection was done in March and is current for PA till 2014. If you want a wagon this one is really nice. Some chrome has minor pitting but overall chrome is nice. Tires have good tread. Belts and hoses look good. The only thing major that needs done is the rear bumper filler is all cracked and while its all there should be replaced. This is the piece between the bumper and rear door and cost around $200. on ebay. The headliner has some wrinkles behind the drivers area but it's not dropped as picture shows. I have really been honest about condition of this vehicle but it is sold as is with no warranties of any kind implied. Buyer is responsible for any tax, tags, and transfer fees and any fees outside of auction end. Buyer is expected to pay $500. non refundable deposit through Paypal at auction end and the rest is to be paid cash in person upon pickup. Buyer is responsible for any shipping charges and arrangements for pickup. You'll look a long time before you find another wagon for the year this nice.

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
Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
