Chevrolet: Corvette on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
2005 C6 Z51 Coupe, with just over 53k miles. Im still driving this car off and on, but only to keep it in tip top condition for the next owner. It will be cleaned inside and out upon pick-up/delivery. Performance: Motor: LS2 6.0L(400hp stock), probably pushing around 450hp with the mods. It stays even with a 2005 Shelby GT500. It is equipped with the Z51 performance package that adds a stiffer suspension, performance tires, upgraded braking system, performance transmission gearing, and a transmission oil cooler! These upgrades make a significant difference in the driving experience over a base model Corvette. I put new ceramic brake pads on the front a couple thousands miles ago.Firestone tires: The fronts could probably go another 5 thousand miles, depending how you drive it. The rears have a couple thousand miles on them. I replaced them last year. The fronts cost around $125 each and the rears cost around $250 each, so a full set of firestones are around $1000.B&B bullet exhaust, pretty much the loudest but best sounding exhaust for this car on market. I do have the stock exhaust to throw in. Ram air with a K&N or similar filter. For those that are not familiar: ram air means that the faster you go, the more air you are sucking into the engine, so more available power on highways. Diablo Sport programmer, running premium octane diablo tune. The c6’s come stock with a fuel-saving feature that forces you to shift from 1st to 4th gear when driving normal. I installed a relay that disables this feature so you are free to shift into any gear, whenever you want. All recalls have been serviced. I havent touched the navigation software, mainly because I never use it for that purpose. Exterior/interior: 1SB interior package: touchscreen nav/cd unit(XM radio capable) BUT I do have an aux cord assembly hooked up to it so you can listen to your own music via a aux cord, drivers side memory package, head-up display(which is probably my favorite feature), home link transmitter, auto dimming mirrors with compass power telescopic steering column, heated driver and passenger seats.It has corvette logo carpet floor mats and trunk mat. The speakers are aftermarket, the brand is Hertz. I’d say they’re definitely comparable or better than Bose. plexiglass/tinted transparent roofGrey leather seats/ Silver exterior.Chrome corvette license plate frame for the rear. No license place on the front but I do have a detachable license plate bracket, that I never installed, I can throw in. Breathable car cover. Chrome front grill2 key Fobs (1 and 2) Keyless entryTinted windows, 35% in the front and 20% on the back. Wear and tear: It does have a 1 inch scratch on the right back panel, around a 2 inch scrape on the bottom of the driver-side door, and some type of mark in plastic on the middle console area, between the shifter, cupholders, and airbag light. The transparent sunroof does have stress marks in areas on it. And there are a few tiny nicks in the paint in the front of the car from normal highway use. Also, there are a few scratches on the front left headlight, from the previous owner. No idea how they got there but its never bothered me. Note: this is how the car always looks. I didnt clean it for these pictures, I just take care of my possessions. Its only been rained on three times in the last 7 years Ive owned it. Please contact me if you would like more pictures, or have any questions. Thanks for looking!

Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video
Mon, Dec 7 2015With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.
GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.

2015 Chevy Spark will have lighter, smaller battery
Thu, May 15 2014As General Motors gets ready to release the 2015 Chevy Spark EV, it is retooling the Brownstown Battery Assembly to build a new battery system for the chirpy little electric car. The new Spark will lose a few pounds and kWh from its lithium-ion pack, but it will keep all of it's performance specs. The current Spark EV uses a 21-kWh lithium-ion battery pack with bits made by A123 Systems (known as B456 Systems during bankruptcy). For the 2015 model, GM is going to build a 19-kWh battery system in-house that will use 192 LG Chem cells. Losing a bit of energy capacity means that the battery system for the 2015 Spark EV will be 86 pounds lighter but it will keep the EPA-rated 82-mile range and 119 MPGe. The 2015 Spark EV also keeps its $26,685 (plus destination) starting price from the 2014 model. The car will once again qualify for a federal tax credit of up to $7,500. LG Chem also supplies the cells for GM's other plug-in vehicles from its facility in Western Michigan. The Brownstown production line currently builds the battery packs for the Chevy Volt, the Opel Ampera and the Cadillac ELR. You can read our first drive of the 2014 Chevy Spark here. Brownstown Battery Assembly Expands Capabilities Will build battery system for 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV 2014-05-14 DETROIT – General Motors will bring all its electric vehicle battery building capabilities in-house with production of battery systems for the 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV at its battery assembly plant in Brownstown, Mich. "Using our in-house engineering and manufacturing expertise enabled us to deliver a battery system that is more efficient and lighter than the 2014 Spark EV without sacrificing range," said Larry Nitz, executive director of GM global transmission and electrification engineering. "Our successful working relationship with LG Chem has allowed us to deliver a new battery system for the Spark EV that helps us to better leverage our economies of scale." A newly designed battery system features an overall storage capacity of 19 kWh and uses 192 lithium ion cells. The cells are produced at LG Chem's plant in Holland, Mich. The battery system weight of 474 lbs. is 86 pounds lighter than the system in the 2014 Spark EV. The Spark EV battery is built on a dedicated production line at Brownstown, which also manufactures complete battery packs for the Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera and Cadillac ELR.
