The LEGENDARY 1989 IROC-Z Camaro is one of Americas most memorable cars. High Torque, great styling and exciting performance are what make this car a classic. 
Since I purchased the car last year I have invested over $2,000 dollars into it, since the car had been sitting in a storage unit for quite a while. New Radiator (not Chinese!!) because these cars are notorious for overheating (luckily I haven't overheated since I bought it and a new thermostat), Complete Engine Tune up, Magnaflow Performance Catalytic Converter, Brakes Service, California Emissions tuning etc. I love, LOVE, LOVE This car. Unfortunately it is time for me to focus on my 1967 Camaro and departing with this car is part of the process. It's clich? to say that my loss is your gain, but that is exactly the case here. I am losing money on the sale of this car but I would much rather see it go to someone who will take care of it. Third generation Camaro's represent a time when cool guys didn't look at explosions as they walked away, Tony Montana was Florida's kingpin, and Arnold Coined the words, "I'll be back". This car is definitely a time piece of the 80's, my favorite era. Though I wasn't born in that time period, I was able to enjoy the company of those who did, growing up. I'm sure you'll enjoy the hell out of this car. What a weird car description.. alright lets get down to it; 


This is a 1989 IROC-Z28 Convertible, all original with only 71478 miles. 

I have personally put 2000 miles into the car since I have legally been able to operate it in 14 November, 2013. 


The good:
Clean California Title
Engine received tuning 500 miles ago
New Performance Magnaflow catalytic converter
New Radiator
New Thermostat
New Brake Master & Slave Cylinder
Great automatic transmission!
EXCELLENT 5.0l V8 TPI
Great convertible Top (clear rear plastic)
passed California Smog check with flying colors
Decent gas mileage (if you don't have a lead food)
Power windows
Power locks
Power Drivers seat
Hasn't leaked one bit since I purchased it! No oil, Tranny, Brake fluid, zip! 

The bad: 
Exterior paint-job needs slight touch ups
Interior needs some work (seats & horn button)
speedometer/Odometer is Inop (I have personally put 2k miles on it since I have been able to legally operate it in November 14, 2013)
Driver Door Hinge Pin needs to be replaced
Very light surface rust on the underbody, Chassis is structurally sound! 
Starter motor is acting up

All in all this car is worth it. The thrill. The power. This is a true American Muscle Car. 


Here are some videos of the car, its a virtual tour! Exterior, Interior, Drive.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
