Hello I'm selling this 1990 Chevrolet Camaro RS T-top 5.0 Engine, manual 5-speed. It has a lot of power and sounds great. Car is being sold AS-IS. The car has been modified, which makes it nearly impossible to pass a California Smog Test. Starting bid is $1000 with no reserve.

Car Fax: I just ran a carfax report on this car, vin# 1G1FP23E6LL111673 which showed the mileage as 221,445. There has been no accident/damage reported to CARFAX. I was informed the previous owner sold the car to Pick n Pull because of speeding tickets and the potential cost to switch back to stock to get it to pass a California smog. Also they said the previous owner drove the car to Pick N Pull (it was not towed to their location). It was on their lot for less than 24 hours, before I bought it.

History: It appears the previous owner was setting this car up to race. For example he switched it from a throttle body to edelbrock 1406 carburetor and performer intake. It has an electric fuel pump and smaller after market gas tank. Also, there's modified exhaust system and no catalytic converter on the car. Radio has been removed from car. It has a ton of potential. But I don't have any use for it. I need a reliable family car.

My experience: Transmission shifted fine for me. The wheels look nice in the picture, but they don't look that good in person. Also the wheels appears to be too big for the car. This car should be sold to someone who knows how to work on cars. It has some dings here and there which is why I listed it at a low price with no reserve. If I was into racing I would definitely keep this car but I need a reliable family car right now.

It's a California car.

DMV:The issue with this car (in California) is being able to get it to pass smog. The way it is set up now, it's not able to pass smog (catatylic converter must be added, sensors to the engine has been disconnected) so the modifications would have to switched back to stock to pass a smog test. If you have a stock engine for it, then that's great too.

The previous owner had a clean title on this car. However, car was sold to a salvage yard, therefore the has a "salvage title". Check the Car Fax and you will see the Car has never been reported for a major accident. If you want to see the car fax I can mail it to you. Also you can see for yourself, here's the If you have any questions please ask. Thanks.

Notes: Car is being sold as is. New owner is responsible for making arrangements to have the car shipped to his/her location. I completed all paperwork with DMV yesterday. Therefore I should have Title in hand within 10 days.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race

Thu, Sep 8 2016

The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
