Chevrolet: Corvette 3lt on 2040-cars
Berkeley, California, United States
2014 3LT Z51 - Stingray Supercharged This car is awesome/extremely fast and Im only selling because Im buying a new house. Its time to free up some cash flow. Everything is stock on the car, with the exception of the engine. The engine work was completed by Cunningham Motorsports in Murrieta. These guys are known for making Vettes go really fast! This car is full of options. It has everything the 3LT Z51 has plus the following:- Carbon Fiber interior package- HUD- Chrome aluminum wheels (19 front, 20 rear)- Magnetic ride control- 6 speed auto with paddle shifts- Exhaust, multi mode- Red calipers Window sticker was $73,925.00 Engine Mods:A&A Supercharger system, with intercooler Cunningham custom ground camMethanol injectionLMR catch canCustom tune on 91 octane*Best pull was 670 rwhp on their dyno (sheet attached) The car runs and drives stock until you romp on the throttle. The only giveaway is the lopey cam idle. And of course the loud blow off when you let off :). This car gets ridiculously great fuel mileage too, as a bonus. If youve been wanting to buy a Stingray and soup it up, save yourself some money and buy this one. This beast has never been on a track, but the guys at Cunningham were running the exact same set up on their shop car at one time and ran a 10.3 quarter mile on drag radials. So theres plenty of power on tap to break some hearts. The warranty is still there, but I dont know what kind of luck youll have if you take it to the dealership?? They might warranty everything except the drivetrain, but I cant guarantee that... I requested that the car remain California Smog Legal when we started the mods, so Im assuming itll pass Ca emissions. I cant guarantee that itll pass, since I havent had it checked. But even the air filter is in the air box still. No changes were made to the exhaust either. She still smells new and is very clean.

Burt Reynolds' vehicles up for auction at Barrett-Jackson
Tue, Sep 25 2018Burt Reynolds' influence on car culture cannot be overstated. Be it "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Cannonball Run," his films inspired a generation of car enthusiasts. He died a few weeks back from cardiac arrest at age 82. This weekend, four vehicles from Reynolds' personal collection — three Pontiacs and a Chevy — will go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. It seems Reynolds had plans to sell the cars before he passed. He even filmed a short teaser for the auction and planned to attend the event himself. Three of the cars are Pontiac Trans Ams. Two are re-creations of the cars he drove in "Bandit" and the film "Hooper." Both are 1978 models. The third Trans Am is from 1984 and was used to promote Reynolds' USFL team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth vehicle is a 1978 Chevy R30 pickup truck. It's styled like the truck he drove in "Cannonball Run." None of the vehicles were actually used in the movies. But they were registered in his name, making them far more legitimate than some other movie-inspired clones. It's unclear how many Bandit Trans Ams Reynolds has owned over the years. Another car connected to him sold for $450,000 back in 2014. His death is sure to drive the price of these new cars even higher.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
