I purchased this Camaro from
the original owner in December 2013. At
the time, it had 37,000 miles on it. As
can be seen in the odometer photo, it now has 40,000 +. I replaced the factory sound
system with a high end Pioneer. It has a
CD/DVD player and also a built in navigation system and hands free
telephone. The microphone is in the
center of top of windshield so it can pick up the voice of both driver and
passenger. There is a satellite radio
antennae which is mounted in the windshield side of the dash. It’s wired so the
DVD player can be used while driving (for the passenger’s pleasure). There is a back-up camera. Since the video can be on the entire time the
car is moving, I use the back-up camera screen as a rearview mirror which is
really handy as the rear window in the convertible top is really small. All factory speakers were replaced with new
ones. The highs are crisp, and the lows
are solid with no rattling. There was also a subwoofer and amp installed in the trunk. Total cost for the sound system was about $2,000. All original sound equipment goes with the
car. At the same time, I had the
windows tinted, including a windshield eyebrow.
That was another $200. I then put
17 inch wheels and tires on the car- another $1,200. I ran this ad once before
with very little response, so I decided to put it back on with the original
equipment. The 17 inch tires don’t have
500 miles on them. The factory 16 inch
tires are not brand new-but as can be seen in the photo, there is a lot of
tread left on them. Shortly after I purchased
the vehicle, I got a 2-1/2 inch cowl induction hood. When I had it painted, I had the headlight
buckets painted to match (as I never thought that black look was appealing).
There goes another $1,000, Clearance lights on all four
corners have been replaced with black lenses.
All original lights go with the car. The cowl hood goes with the car. The original owner had
replaced the original top with a factory one just before I purchased the
car. The top is so taut that several
people have asked me if it really goes down, or is a padded hardtop. There are a few chips in the
front bumper cover. I’m not going to
count them, because there may be a couple of more by the time it is sold, and I
don’t want to be pinned to a number. As can be seen in a couple of the photos, there is a scuff on the side of the driver's seat from the original owner sliding in and out. After a couple of weeks, I no longer noticed it-but just wanted to point it out. The dent in the passenger's
rear quarter panel was on the car when I purchased it. As you can see, it is
barely noticeable (the original owner had to point it out to me). The scratch
on the top of the fender happened in the body shop when I was having the hood
painted. They covered the whole car with plastic to prevent overspray from the
hood getting on the car. I feel when they trimmed the plastic they scratched it.
However, since they deny it, there is nothing I can do now. As is obvious,
unless you look at it head on, you can't even see it. Please keep in mind, this
car is almost 20 years old and it is not a 100 point show car, but it is a way
above average driver. As I have nothing to hide, I would prefer people take a
test drive before bidding-but that is up to you. I am located approximately an hour and a half
northwest of Little Rock, Arkansas; about one hour south of the Missouri state
line on highway 65. For something that is
unmodified, the car sure feels like it has a lot of power. I was very pleasantly surprised at the gas
mileage I was getting-around 25 mpg on open road. Once I got all this work
done, and drove it for a short time, I realized I just didn’t enjoy it that
much. I’m used to sports cars, and this
car just feels big to me -although I think most people would be tickled to
death with it! I bought the Miata (which
can be seen in some of the photos, as I thought it would suit me better. I liked it just fine. However
I no longer have the Miata as it was sideswiped by a deer. I am now in the process of buying a Porsche
as I feel that will satisfy my wants/needs. Anyone interested in
shipping, I will not make the arrangements, but I will work with your shipper
any way I can-just about any time, any day as I am retired (yes, even old farts
like cool cars!) The original owner was
also older. I’m quite sure I’m leaving
something out. I will try to answer any
questions as honestly as possible. If
anyone wants photos from other angles, please let me know. I know this car has a lot of years/miles left
in it. I forgot to mention, the car presently has the factory wheels and hood on it (but everything mentioned in the ad goes with it). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PLEASE do not write requesting reserve on this item. This will not be divulged until auction's end. Deposit via Paypal expected within 48 hours of auction's close. I am not a professional photographer (I'm not even a good amateur photographer)-but if anyone wants additional photographs from any angle or any close-ups, please let me know and I will do the best I can. If anyone would like to look at the item before bidding, it is located approximately 1-1/2 hours northwest of Little Rock, Arkansas. When you have received your item and are tickled to death, please leave me positive feedback and I will reciprocate in kind. Good luck to you all and happy bidding.

EcoCar3 will convert Camaro to bitchin' eco rides
Sat, Apr 26 2014In the 47-year-history of the Chevrolet Camaro, there have been countless college-age kids spending a ton of time getting under the hood and souping 'em up. Now, General Motors is adding a twist to the concept by donating 16 Camaros for the EcoCar challenge that puts university teams together to wring out better fuel-efficiency out of various vehicles. No word on whether there will be donuts on anyone's lawn, as suggested by 80's punks the Dead Milkmen, but the idea's never a bad one. EcoCar3 will feature 16 teams such as Arizona State, Penn State, Ontario's University of Waterloo and, of course, Detroit's Wayne State University. They'll spend the next four years "[reducing] environmental impact, while maintaining the muscle and performance expected from this iconic American car," as the EcoCar organizers say. The goal is to maintain body design and safety standards while boosting efficiency and lowering emissions, but the actual process is far more complicated than that description suggests. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Bosch are among the sponsors of the contest, which is also put on by the US Department of Energy and managed by Argonne National Laboratory. Penn State won Year Two of the three-year EcoCar 2 competition with its E85 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle converted out of a Chevy Malibu. The grand-prize winner of EcoCar2 will be announced in June. Check out the EcoCar3 website and see the announcement video below for more details. This content is hosted by a third party.

Chevy Volt 'acceptable,' Nissan Leaf 'poor' in new IIHS safety tests
Thu, Jul 31 2014Ford C-Max Hybrid also scored "acceptable" rating. With US Nissan Leaf sales up almost 30 percent during the first half of the year, the only thing that might be able to stop the battery-electric vehicle is a good, stiff barrier. Unfortunately, thing's aren't always pretty when that happens in the real world, according to new tests from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Things with the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in are a little bit rosier, though. The two plug-in vehicles were part of a batch of a dozen vehicles that just went through the IIHS's "small overlap" test, in which the driver's side front corner of the vehicle is crashed into a rigid barrier at 40 miles per hour. Out of the dozen, only the Mini Cooper Countryman was given a "good" rating. Five vehicles, including the Volt and the Ford C-Max Hybrid, were rated "acceptable," two were "marginal" and two, including the Leaf, were "poor." Plug-in vehicles are unique in the crash-test context because of their relatively large battery sizes. In the Volt's case, the driver had a "low risk" of injury, said the IIHS. But the Leaf's crash substantially pushed back the instrument panel and steering column, creating a scenario where the driver was "likely" to sustain leg injuries. The batteries in both the Leaf and the Volt passed safety tests specifically targeted at things like thermo and electrical properties and overall integrity. "Nissan is proud of the Leaf's 'Good' rating in all other IIHS tests, a 4-star NCAP rating from NHTSA and its IIHS Top Safety Pick rating in all previous years since the car's release," the company said in an e-mail sent to AutoblogGreen. "As for the performance of the 2014 Leaf in the 'small overlap frontal test,' Nissan will continue to review these and other results from the IIHS 'small overlap frontal test' as we seek opportunities for improvement." Check out the IIHS's press release and small car crash-test video footage below. Range of ratings: Small car ratings run the gamut in challenging small overlap front test The Mini Cooper Countryman is the only small car to earn a good rating among the latest group of 12 cars subjected to the Institute's small overlap front crash test. Two electric models and a hybrid also are in the mix, with varied results. The electric-powered Chevrolet Volt (with a gasoline engine "range extender") earns an acceptable rating, while its battery-electric rival, the Nissan Leaf, earns a poor rating.
Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting? Vote in our poll below, then feel free to leave a few lines in Comments.
