Up for your consideration is my 24 Hours of Lemans Commemorative Edition 2004 Corvette Z06. This particular car is build number 1266 of 2025. The '04 Commemorative Edition Z06 is arguably the most desirable C5 model and features a lightweight carbon fiber hood and is painted a gorgeous color, Lemans Blue. Only 2025 were built and 1700 were available stateside as the remaining number were destined for the european market. This model was also tested on the famed Nurburgring race track where it completed the course in under 8 minutes putting it in the upper class of super cars! 

     I searched long and hard to find a car of this pedigree. I purchased the car from the 69 year old original owner. It has been garaged kept it's entire life and has never been left outside over night. I have a complete and highly documented file on this car and I am willing to say it may be most documented Z06 currently available anywhere in the world!  Documentation includes all service records since new, pre-delivery inspection from new, factory window sticker and build sheet, clean CarFax and much more. The car is washed every week and waxed every other weekend. I dry it with blown air and use silicone spray to treat the weather stripping. The wheels are washed inside and out. The car looks so nice that I am constantly asked if it is new or what year it is? You could eat off the engine and the underside....not that you would want to. The car has NEVER had any food or drinks in it and absolutely no smoke. The car has never been to redline and the rear tires have NEVER been spun...REALLY!

     Look at the pictures, look at the documents, ask questions, come take a look at the car or send your mechanic to view it. I can assure you that you will NOT find a nicer '04 CE Z16. I am extremely picky and all of my cars are always better than described. I have received emails from past buyers that have told me that my cars are everything I have said they were and more. If you decide to buy this car you will not be disappointed as it is as nice as they come!

     This car has some very nice aesthetic and reversible touches to enhance an already spectacular Z06.  They include "rare" forged SSR GT-2H 18" wheels. 18" X 9.5" Front and 18" X 10.5" Rear with brand new Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's running 265/35-18 in front and 295/35-18 in the rear. All four wheels have custom 24 HR LeMans center caps color matched to the car along with custom lug nuts just for these wheels.  It also features GM Durastop drilled brake rotors with semi-metallic high performance pads on all four corners. Other tasteful additions include clear DRL's and clear diamond cut rear side marker lights. The wheels and lighting match the stripes beautifully and really make the car pop!  But wait....there's more!  It also has had the steering column lock bypass and CAGS eliminator to rid of the dreaded locked column and 1-4 shift.  For other performance enhancements I have installed a C6 Z06 shifter with custom one off "Jake" shift knob, trunk partition panel, and a "top of the line" CAI...a Callaway Honker. It also has a custom lighted exhaust enhancer plate and custom matched gas and dead pedals to compliment the factory pedals. The car has also been lowered 1" on the factory bolts along with a fresh 4 wheel alignment.  The transmission and rear differential were recently service with fresh fluid and the oil has been changed every 3000 miles or less using only Mobil 1 and GM Duraguard "Gold" oil filters. All services of course, have been documented with product, date and mileage!  There is also a shorty antennae for better looks and a factory set of european tailights....WOW!

     Besides all of this the car came from the factory with every possible option available including the front license plate frame and BSM (Body Side Moulding)  All of the enhancements could easily be reversed in a few hours and ALL of the "stock" parts, including the factory polished wheels and Goodyear tires come with the car!  What are you waiting for?  Don't miss this one!

     As always, look at my feedback, ask me any questions, look at all the others....closely. Please only bid if you have the funds to complete the transaction. If you are looking for a 20K Z06 than move along as this is NOT that car. This auction is not a game. If you want to play games do so with someone else. Good Luck and God Bless America.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years

Wed, Jun 25 2014

A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.

GM faces possible class action lawsuit over 8-speed transmission

Thu, Apr 25 2019

General Motors has been hit with a class-action lawsuit from owners who allege the eight-speed automatic transmission found in several rear-wheel-drive Chevrolet, Cadillac and GMC models between the 2015 and 2019 model years has a defect that causes the vehicles to hesitate and jerk when accelerating or slowing down. The lawsuit was posted to ClassAction.org and spotted by GM Authority. Problems with GM's Hydra-Matic 8L90 and 8L45 transmissions have been well-documented on Internet forums and via complaints filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with many reporting damage to their vehicles. The lawsuit was first filed in December in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida but appears to have been transferred recently to New York. Autoblog sought comment from Theodore Leopold, the lead attorney for the plaintiffs. "These transmissions have a common defect," the complaint reads. "Drivers attempting to accelerate or decelerate their cars feel a hesitation, followed by a significant shake, shudder, jerk, clunk, or 'hard shift' when the vehicle's automatic transmission changes gears." The problem also occurs when the vehicles accelerate in a single gear, without shifting, the plaintiffs allege. "Drivers have reported that the shift is sometimes so violent, they feel as though they have been hit by another vehicle." The problem is believed to center on the transmission, torque converter or both. The complaint says it causes undue friction, causing hydraulic systems and gears to function improperly and sometimes leaves metal shavings throughout the transmission, leading to costly repairs and replacement of parts or the entire transmission. It says GM has known about the problems since shortly after it introduced the transmissions, and has issued 13 technical service bulletins, none of which have resolved the problem. GM declined to comment on the lawsuit. The plaintiffs say GM should have warned consumers about the issues and covered repairs under each vehicle's three-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty. They're seeking statewide classes in at least six states: California, Florida, Illinois, New York, Oklahoma and Texas.
