MY DESCRIPTION:

Never hit nor driven in snow or ice, this strictly non-smoking Corvette has led a garaged, pampered, and well-loved "3-season" life. I am offering it with a reserve and Buy It Now set according to Kelley Blue Book value, at less than what I truly believe this car is worth.

This is one of the finest examples of a C5 (5th generation) Corvette produced, being from the final year of C5 production, including the 24 Hours of LeMans Commemorative Edition package (2,170 coupes produced with this option), and having every available option, including the very desirable 6-speed Manual Transmission and Magnetic Ride Control. Many people consider this generation of Corvette's sensuous and flowing body style to be among the most beautiful Corvettes of all time. It certainly is the last year for hidden headlights, probably forever.

This great, very low mileage car has been a member of our family since January of 2005, when I became its second owner 8 months after it was originally purchased. The original owner in PA bought it for his wife, who apparently didn't want the car, so he traded it in at a large powersports and automotive dealer for some ATV's and a new Harley! Well, his loss was my gain, because it kept its practically flawless history of reliable service, and it's easily been to this day the best Corvette I've ever owned. By all means check the Carfax on this Corvette, which has been my 4th Vette since 1987.

Selling this car is a decision I've gone back and forth with for the past year. It's a great sports car, beautiful to look at, and a wonderful vacation companion (we've taken it on a few long trips) with its smooth highway ride (for a sports car, thanks to Magnetic Ride Control, which GM developed with Delco and is now also used by Audi and Ferrari), large cargo area, and consistent delivery of 29 to 30 MPG on the highway (that is NOT a typo, these cars get phenomenal mileage cruising in 6th gear at 70-80+ MPH!) But the sad fact is, I just don't drive it much-- lately under 1,000 miles a year, and in the meantime it takes up garage space and adds about a thousand bucks to my insurance every year. So I think it's time to hand the keys to someone else who will love and enjoy the car more often than I'm able to. I truly believe you will not find a nicer, more fun to drive, more comfortable, better looking or more reliable sports car of any kind at this price.

As listed below, I spent a few thousand dollars over the years to make a few tasteful and functional modifications to this car, always with the thought that it should appear like it came (or should have come) from the factory that way. It has the mellow (Touring) version of the Corsa Tigershark exhaust system with its gorgeous set of chrome tips in back, originally supplied for a well-known Chevrolet-made C5 concept car called the Tigershark. This exhaust combined with an SLP Blackwing cold air intake gives the car a little boost in horsepower (probably 10-20 extra, though this car was never dyno'd). It cruises quietly, but has a nice growl when you're dipping heavily into the throttle. Part of that quiet cruising is thanks to some extra, custom-fit insulation in the hatch area, which on the C5 can otherwise be a source of significant road noise and resonance. A speed shift kit gets rid of the very rubbery feeling stock shifter and shortens throws nicely. A few interior pieces dress up the cockpit, including aluminum gauge bezels that bring the dash appearance closer to what you find in the C6. It also has something of a magic box installed that offers a mini-stereo plug inside the console storage compartment, which lets you play any portable device (iPod, Android, etc.) through the factory sound system, while retaining full use of the in-dash CD and 12-disc remote CD changer. Except for the exhaust, I have the original parts that come with the car if the buyer wishes to go back to stock. I absolutely love the new Michelin Pilot run-flat tires, which have phenomenal grip in both dry and wet; in fact I think the wet weather traction is now as good as the dry traction on the original Goodyear run-flat tires.

Please check my feedback; I'm a very honest seller and I want to find a very happy buyer! Everything on this Corvette works "as new" to best of my knowledge. The deep blue paint looks fantastic, with just a few normal small road chips that have touch-up paint on them. The edition-exclusive shale interior is also close to showroom condition, with some very minor wear on the driver side seat cushion, which is normal and unavoidable for these cars; if I didn't point it out you probably wouldn't notice. There is a nearly invisible crack in the driver side turn signal lens, and I have the new Chevrolet part, which comes with the car, but haven't had time to get it installed. There is also a slight buzz noticed recently in the console area under certain conditions of acceleration, which I haven't had time to track down (I suspect the ash tray lid or its spring). I certainly welcome all questions here, in-person requests to see the car.

Good luck bidders, and be sure to check out the full picture gallery and HD video link at:

First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 Sells For One Million Dollars

Mon, Apr 14 2014

NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick loves buying first-built Chevrolet models for charity. He paid $1 million to buy the first production 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible and $650,000 to get the first 2014 Chevy Camaro Z/28. Hendrick's latest purchase happened at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Palm Beach where he got into a bidding war to pay $1 million to get the first 2015 Corvette Z06. The bidding came quick with the car reaching $100,000 within 3 seconds and hitting $500,000 in about 35 seconds. The money from the sale was donated to the Karmanos Cancer Institute.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak

Wed, Sep 24 2014

General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana
