This is my 1996 Caprice Classic with the LT1 motor and sport package that I bought new in December 1996. It is dark green grey metallic with grey cloth interior. It has 145,300 miles and located in eastern PA. It is PA inspected through 10/13. It has the heavy duty cooling with mechanical fan (trans oil cooler; radiator engine oil cooler); power seats; CD player; heat reflective windshield; leather wrapped steering wheel. Kumo all season tires have about 60% tread remaining. Over the years I have done a few minor modifications that include: 17 inch Impala SS wheels with Chevy bowtie center caps; Impala SS grille; Impala SS tail lights; Impala SS rear spoiler; bilstein shocks; power steering oil cooler; Power Slot rotors, and steel brake lines. All parts where GM parts except the rotors, bilsteins, and braided brake lines. Within the past 15,000 miles I have done the following: opti-spark and vent harness, water pump, radiator and heater hoses, belts, belt tensioners, spark plugs and wires - all New AC Delco parts. New AC Delco A/C compressor and accumulator and fan clutch. New front (Hawk) and rear (AC Delco) brake pads and shoes. New GM rebuilt transmission at 108,000 miles. Extremely well maintained and driven. Runs and performs great. Everything works except the cigarette lighter and trunk light. It is missing some door pull strap covers and the sun visor clip on driver's side. The odometer is unclear for the first few minutes after starting and then gets clear - the digital speedometer has no issues at all. No tears in upholstery and no one has ever smoked in the car. After spending about half of its life not in a garage, the paint is rough in spots, especially front bumper and there is one area of rust on the driver's side door sill, captured in the pictures. Please ask any questions that you may have and thank you for looking. EDIT: The carfax will say 2 owners because it was re-titled in FL for 1.5 years while I was there. As you will see, it was then re-titled back to PA. |

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
