This car has 65,011 miles with a built LS2 402ci stroker motor putting out over 500 RWHP. Runs like a race car but is still very driveable around town. Exhaust has a very strong deep note but not so loud that it's obnoxious to driver or others. Car is clean inside and out.

Heads up display

6-speed manual

Rears: Nitto NT555R 305/35/18 (NEW extra set included $700/pr on ebay)

All Receipts/Records included.

This car's tuner is Mayhem Motorsports in Raleigh, NC. They are very familiar with the car inside and out.

Anything wrong with the car? Here's what I have:

-airbag light has always been on, never bothered me, I thought it was the clock spring, but that may have been my last C5, someone mentioned it might be b/c I unplugged the OEM seats?

-Fog light switch or both bulbs bad?

-The passenger side/rear TPS (tire pressure system) sensor batteries is about to go out. Replace sensor or battery, or nothing.

Standard service history that I can think of non-performance related:

-Steering Rack was warrantied early on and replaced

-Driver side inner tie-rod replaced

-A/C serviced

-New starter

-Regular oil changes

No problems with headlights or column lock. This is not my first Corvette so I'm familiar with their usual suspects. I have a column lock bypass that I will include also in case you ever need it, it stays in the glovebox, just in case. I intentionally have not let GM do the recall since they just remove the steering lock altogether.

I really hate to sell this car. It's absolutely amazing. It has become a garage queen and deserves better.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Junkyard Gem: 2003 Chevrolet Tracker

Wed, May 22 2024

When General Motors created the Geo brand to sell vehicles designed and — in some cases Â— built by Japanese partners, the first four models were introduced for the 1989 model year: the Metro (Suzuki Cultus), Prizm (Toyota Sprinter), Spectrum (Isuzu Gemini) and Tracker (Suzuki Sidekick). Geo got the axe in 1997, with the Metro, Prizm and Tracker becoming Chevrolets. Of those, the Tracker survived the longest, with U.S.-market sales continuing into 2004. Here's an example of a very late Tracker, found in a North Carolina car graveyard recently. The 1989-1997 first-generation Trackers were based on the Suzuki Sidekick, while the 1998-2004 Trackers had the Suzuki Vitaras (not to be confused with the much grander Grand Vitaras) as their siblings. Production of these trucks for the South American market (as the Chevrolet Vitara) continued in Ecuador all the way through 2014. The Tracker name has also gone onto some versions of the Chevrolet Trax around the world. This one is a base four-door hard top/rear-wheel-drive model, which had an MSRP of $17,330. That's about $29,789 in 2024 dollars. You'll find one in every car. You'll see. The engine is a Suzuki 2.0-liter straight-four rated at 127 horsepower and 134 pound-feet. A five-speed manual was base equipment, but very few American vehicle shoppers wanted three pedals by the middle 2000s. This truck has the Aisin four-speed automatic. We like it loud. It appears that someone associated with this truck graduated from Julius L. Chambers High School last year. In the United States, the Tracker was replaced by the Saturn Vue. If Tracker can handle (unspecified Middle Eastern country), it can survive the jungle back home. Siempre contigo.

'Baby Driver' is a car chase movie set to music

Mon, Mar 13 2017

The Fate of the Furious is certainly the 6,000-pound SUV in the garage of automotive movies, but that doesn't mean gearheads are starved for options. The upcoming film Baby Driver looks to be a winner for car guys, featuring exciting chases with cars including a "hawk-eye" Impreza WRX, a Dodge Challenger, and a 1980s Chevy Caprice. The movie is written and directed by Edgar Wright, whom you may know as the man behind movies such as Sean of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. And based on the two trailers released so far, seen above and below, it's about a young man by the name of Baby, who is a getaway driver for criminals. He's apparently the best in the business, and the secret to his success is the music he listens to while he's driving. He also wants out, but his boss, played by Kevin Spacey, has no intention of letting him go. Spacey is one of a number of major stars in the film, including Jamie Foxx and John Hamm. The driving action shown in the trailers definitely looks entertaining. The WRX is seen doing an array of drifts and J-turns. There is some driving precision on display here that wouldn't be out of place in a Gymkhana video. And it looks like Wright's attention to detail in his shots and transitions, as well as some solid comedy relief, are all going to be present. The film comes out this August.
