I'm selling my well maintained 2000 convertible. It has just over 27,000 miles. It was an Arizona car until 2011. In addition to the standard equipment it has the following options: polished aluminum wheels, leather "sport seats", 12 disc CD, active handling system, head up display, dual zone AC, power telescoping steering column & manual tilt, six way power passenger seat, memory package, fog lamps, twilight sentinel, and floor mats. It has new "Michelin Pilot "run flats".
The following is the repair history: In February, 2012, I had all the trans axle and transmission seals replaced. Currently, I have a small leak at the drivers side rear axle shaft, at the transaxle cover. The C5 Corvette is known to be plagued with this issue, apparently it is a design flaw in engineering that causes the seal to fail ( see photo).
I have included photos to show the cosmetic flaws: "pinch marks to fabric of top, surface wear on side of console where my leg rubbed. The interior is in excellent condition. There are no water leaks. I changed the oil at regular intervals with "Mobil 1". It is stored winters. I installed "Euro" tail light lenses, and the amber side marker lenses. It has a padded partition between the trunk and passenger compartment. The red fender stripes are vinyl.
In two years of ownership, I have driven the Corvette around 9,000 miles. It delivers 28 + miles per gallon on the highway. The Corvette is sold "as is". It has never been in an accident. I am an NCRS member, and a member of the Michigan Chapter NCRS.
On Sep-08-13 at 14:14:30 PDT, seller added the following information:
I need to clarify the leaky axle seal issue for those bidding. I had the drivers side trans axle cover replaced in July 2012. In August 2013, it began to drip again. The mechanics diagnosis was that if replaced, there was no way to guarantee that it would not start dripping again in a few months, or may never again leak. He emphasized that the issue involved the engineering of the transaxle mounting, which was never addressed by GM, until the C6 Corvette came out. I want to make full disclosure of this issue, to avoid any misunderstanding.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
