2001 Corvette Convertible
Color is Magnetic Red II metallic with black leather interior and black soft top. 31,871 original miles.
Fully optioned including: Heads-up display, 12-disc CD changer, electronic dual zone climate control, fog lamps,
memory package - exterior mirrors, radio, driver's seat, climate control & power telescoping steering column,
color-matched body side moldings, power telescoping/manual tilt steering wheel, dual power seats, twilight
sentinel, inside and outside monochromatic mirrors.
I have added C6 Z06-style chrome wheels, a K&N air cleaner, custom C5 logo floor mats (with clear mats over top),
C5 logo carpeted trunk lid insert, window valet (allows you to open and close the windows with the remote). I also
have a custom-fit cover and Vette-Net windscreen which I will sell for additional cost. Purchase price includes all
the original documentation that I have and a 2001 Corvette sales brochure (still in the packaging).
I am the 3rd owner of this car. I bought it in 2009 and it was originally a GM executive lease car, which means
that only GM execs ever drove it for the first 3 years. It has the LS1 350cu.in / 350 HP engine and 4-speed
automatic transmission. It has the optional 3.15 ratio rear axle which makes it very quick off the line, but still
able to cruise at highway speeds very comfortably.
This car has been garage kept and meticulously maintained, using strictly Mobile 1 only in the engine. I had the
brake system and cooling system both flushed and refilled in 2012 and the oil and filter have been changed every
year regardless of miles driven. The car has been in storage the past 2 years with the battery on a trickle charger
the entire time. The car starts and runs flawlessly and drives just like a brand new Vette. As you can see from the
pictures, it's pretty much like new!! Time for someone else to enjoy this beauty.
Only 10% of Corvette convertibles were painted Magnetic Red II metallic in 2001, and only 12% had the 1SB option
with heads-up display, dual climate control and dual power seats!!
Thanks for looking at my car and I'll just say that someone is going to get a very fun, beautiful and reliable
vehicle to enjoy!!

Chevrolet donates 300 vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Super Storm Sandy took out a lot of automobiles in its path of destruction through the Northeast last October. The number surpassed 250,000 at last count, and a few of those were owned by Chevrolet - cars either sitting on dealership lots or waiting at port to be shipped off. Rendered unsellable by the water damage inflicted by Sandy, these vehicles were facing the crusher. But Chevy didn't send them there.
Instead, Chevy had a better idea: It will be donating 300 of these vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders at Guardian Centers in Perry, GA. Chevy is the official automotive partner of Guardian Centers, which is an 830-acre facility that trains first responders in disaster preparedness. Junked cars are practically a consumable commodity there, where a full-size cityscape simulator gives trainees an entire urban center in which to train for all sorts of rescue operations and disaster scenarios.
Chevy says its particular vehicles will be used "in conjunction with role players for wide area searches, traffic congestion in emergency situations, counter terrorism, public order and mass casualty exercises." While grim scenarios all, we're certainly glad there are people out there preparing for the unexpected. While a zombie apocalypse isn't officially on the list of potential disasters to prepare for, when the virus hits, we'll be hot-footing it to Perry, GA to hang with these guys and gals.
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
