Great condition 

One-owner
NO accidents
Always kept babied inside a heated garage.
Obsessively kept up with maintenance on a strict schedule using the best fluids.
Driven seasonally part time in good weather. 
Automatic with on wheel F1 paddleshifters give you the best of both worlds. Convenient automatic for times of traffic or conversation, and racetrack ready performance upon request immediately paddle-shifting in speed mode.
A few aftermarket upgrades:
Billy Boat exhaust pipes with a beautiful purr 
Vararam snake charmer air intake
Z51 drilled and slotted rotors from West Coast Corvettes (W.C.C.)
Ceramic road speed rated pads (will never scallop+wear extremely slow)
50% Firehawk RunFlat tires which wear the slowest of any speed rated tire at OEM size
W.C.C. smoke acrylic light kit ( 2 of which are in rough shape. Passenger side front cracked on a hot day in the center so you can see a small crack of light at night. Passenger Rear reacted to a soap I used and became more opaque-ish. $45 to replace the 2 of them, or they are two side 3m taped on, so you can pull them right off if you wish without any risk) 
W.C.C. clear blinker bulb (removes ugly amber appearance)
Black powdercoated OEM alloy C6 corvette rims (light weight, never chip or scratch)
Black powdercoated OEM calipers. 
Extremely high average MPG (in the vehicle's dash information) in comparison to most other corvettes exemplifies that the car was driven smoothly and carefully, and may indicate mostly highway miles (which I know to usually be a nonsense claim that is quite unprovable) however it seems with newer cars there is actually a way to prove it.
This car is as black as possible with all matching blacks. This is all done immaculately and professionally, and looks like it came that way from the dealership other than the two iffy smoke covers. This car is a head turner 24/7, and everyone loves it so much that they will tell you. Has a clean exotic look that stock vettes can not compare to.  
Here are the problems: (Pictures of problems added by Friday Sept.20 @ 2 pm + additional picture and video available on request)
Paint has the normal wear of a 50k mile vehicle
A few small scratches on passenger leather seat bottom
Some cracking on the tips of the aftermarket pipes around the rim of the edge. (I have the OEM pipes with 9000 miles on them, and they are free if you pay to ship them or pick up in person) 
I am available to answer any questions, just text/call 798.o8o8 areacode 860. This vehicle is absolutely gorgeous, and I would not sell it if I were not about to buy a home for my family and I. I hope it brings you the joy it has to me, this is a great looking vehicle that runs perfect. Literally nothing has ever had to be replaced that does not wear naturally. I also have an optional set of used chrome OEM corvette rims available for an additional $400 plus you pay shipping or pick up. Like I said, I will field any questions so feel free to ask.
For those wondering why it says "As is": It is because I will not take returns. Once it is out of my possession, it is yours for good. This has no scheme oriented angle, just a means to prevent myself from potential schemery. Video will be taken before delivery of all parts, components, and functions. Other precautions will also be taken to ensure a successful and mutually fulfilling exchange.
For those wondering why it is a dealership car, the title is in the name of a family dealership I work at, however this vehicle is and always has been my personal vehicle since purchase in 2007, and I have been the only one who has driven it since then. 
Here are some examples of how much I have babied this car. One, If there is construction, no matter what I turn around and find another way. Two, I put a high quality car cover over it in the garage when it is not used (sorry that is not going with the vehicle). Three, I stay far behind 18 wheelers and then pass quickly to avoid any debris firing from the tires. Four, I clean the car before it is covered to avoid the cover potentially causing scratches. Five, I only hand clean the car with high quality soap and microfiber towels, and any waxing etc is done by hired perfectly-reviewed professionals. Well you get the picture. Again, any questions get in touch with me please.
I know I have not sold a car on this account before, or anything for that matter, but I guarantee a smooth and amicable transaction.

Chevy Silverado Midnight Edition, Custom ready to stand out in pickup line

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Chevrolet spent its Chicago Auto Show introducing a pair of fullsize pickups that promise image-conscious buyers a truck experience that goes beyond the standard range, with the murdered-out Midnight Edition and the um, not murdered-out, Custom. Let's start with the Custom, which adds 20-inch alloys, as well as chrome bumpers, mirror caps and door handles to the Silverado LS. Available in both V6 and V8 varieties, and with the customer's choice of two- or four-wheel drive, the Silverado Custom is the decidedly mellower example of Chevy's special edition styling. The Midnight Edition, meanwhile, throws subtlety out the window with a menacing set of visual upgrades. Based on the Z71, the Midnight adds 18-inch wheels, a spray-in bedliner and unique Z71 and Bowtie badges, all in black, of course. The front and rear bumpers, headlamp bezels, tow hooks, mirror caps and door handles, are also finished in the stealthy shade. Check out our live images of both special edition trucks, and let us know what you think down in Comments.

Common Dodge Ram 1500 vs. Chevrolet Silverado breakdowns

Wed, May 4 2016

These two trucks are famous for their ability to get the job done. Still, even the toughest vehicle can have mechanical problems at some time. What if we match the Dodge Ram 1500 and Chevrolet Silverado head to head? Let's find out more about common repairs for each model. Also, learn some tricks to pay for car repairs. Clunky Steering Both Dodge and the Chevy owners sometimes notice bumping and clunking when steering. This might be more noticeable when driving over bumps. The cause is usually different in each truck though. In the Dodge Ram, clunky steering is more likely due to a defective lower ball joint. Replacement costs around $300 - $400, parts and labor. Clunky Chevy Silverado steering is probably a steering rack failure. This problem appears more often in trucks with over 90,000 miles. Silverado steering rack repair will run you up to $1,000 or more. Starting Woes For the Chevy Silverado with over 130,000 miles, you might notice trouble starting. This problem may appear occasionally at first, but it typically gets worse. Excluding a weak battery, the culprit is usually the starter. Replacement will cost you around $330 - $500. Of the total cost, $90 is for labor only. Now the Dodge Ram might make a ticking sound when starting, especially on models with over 94,500 miles. The noise often disappears after the engine warms up. These symptoms may indicate a broken exhaust manifold. Repair costs range from $800 - $900. Burning Oil & Gas Gauge On The Blink Sometimes, the Dodge Ram burns oil much faster than normal. In models with over 125,000 miles, this often points towards a leaky intake manifold gasket. A knocking sound may also appear with acceleration along with possible engine misfire. The cost to repair is around $200 - $300. The Chevy Silverado has its own surprises, especially when you've filled the gas tank but the gauge still reads low. Or the needle fluctuates widely from low to full while driving. In trucks with over 120,000 miles, it's likely due to a faulty fuel sensor. You might need a full fuel pump replacement, which can cost you up to $820, parts and labor. Water Inside And Poor Heat The Ram 1500 rear window has been known to leak. You might notice the back seat and floor wet after a rainstorm. This is more common in trucks with over 65,000 miles. Resealing the Ram 1500 rear window costs around $150 - $250.

Nissan recalls 3.5 million vehicles over airbag sensor

Sat, Apr 30 2016

Nissan is recalling 3.53 million vehicles globally – 3.2 million in the United States – because the front passenger airbag may or may not deploy properly in the event of a crash. In affected vehicles, the occupant sensing system may not properly register a person sitting in the passenger seat. Passenger-side airbags in roughly 622,000 Nissan Sentra models built between 2013 and 2016 may deploy in crashes when they shouldn't, such as when a child is in the seat. 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, and LEAF, 2013-2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60 and Q50, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Chevrolet City Express and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles suffer from the opposite problem. In those models, the airbag may not deploy when it is supposed to. Nissan is aware of at least three crashes where airbags in one of the above models did not function properly, resulting in "moderate injuries." There have already been four recalls since 2013 for similar issues in Nissan vehicles. If you own one of these cars, expect a letter from Nissan in short order (or from GM if you own a Chevy City Express). Related Video: RECALL Subject : Passenger Air Bag may not Deploy due to OCS Error , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: APR 26, 2016 NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V244000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Manufacturer: Nissan North America, Inc. SUMMARY: Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF and Sentra, 2013-2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60 and Q50, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Chevrolet City Express and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles. In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash. CONSEQUENCE: If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury. REMEDY: Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors.
