1998 Carmine Red Metallic Corvette Coupe on 2040-cars

Year:1998 Mileage:9452
Location:

Waterville, Kansas, United States

Waterville, Kansas, United States

See photo of winder sticker for details.  I purchased this vehicle almost 6 years ago, it had 4,000 miles when purchased.  I drive it only when there are conditions that would be bug or nearly bug free, never in the rain, and always under roof.  It's in very good to excellent condition given the age.  This car is extremely powerful, if you can't handle speed, this car is not for you.  The remote CD cartridge in the trunk has failed, I replaced it and that cartridge failed as well.  I simply replaced it with a MP3 cord which works just fine.  

Corvettes are not comfortable machines, the noise level is high, some will have trouble getting in with the low entry point, but if you need to drive a well made speed machine that hugs the road like no other American built vehicle, this is it.  I've had a great deal of fun when I did take it out.  

I'm past the age I need to be driving a vehicle like this.  People will turn their heads when you drive by, if you don't like attention from the public or police, again this will not be the car for you.

Gas mileage is surprisingly good you can expect over 20 on the highway easy.  Insurance and taxes aren't bad either.  

The removable roof needs adjustment, if the wind is blowing hard you will get leakage.  

The body is in near mint condition, I can't think of one scratch on the surface.  

I used to tarp it but I didn't like the tarp rubbing the surface so the past few years it gets dusty in the garage but I take it out on perfect days and wash it and park it.

My daughter reminded me last night that she had asked to use the car in her wedding but I wouldn't let her, I know that's terrible but that's how protective I've been. 

The leakage as described above is air leakage.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.
