 If you have a short attention span, this posting is not for your - i tried to be as detailed in my description as possible; everything you want to know about the car is listed below. Please read before texting/calling - I will ignore questions that I've already answered. Thank you:

My very special Corvette is for sale. Please don't assume you are looking at a stock C6 Z06, it will take the right buyer to appreciate this car. I will guarantee that pictures will not do this car any justice as it's difficult to capture the quality of the fit and finished product.

Here are some of the alterations worth mentioning: the car was completely stripped down and each panel was painted inside out with the very expensive and rare Satin Balloon White, a color and paint available on a Lamborghini Murci'elago LP670-4 SV. This paint job cost well over $10k, so expect perfection. In person you will notice a satin finish pearl white effect, very complementary to the factory Z06 body lines and wide hips. The suspension has been lowered on the factory bolts and the exterior is topped off with a few aerodynamic add-ons, such as: LG Motorsports carbon fiber front splitter, Kaetech carbon fiber rear spoiler (painted to match for a cleaner look), along with the full carbon fiber side skirts.

Mechanically the car is stock, never having the handbuilt 7.0 L factory engine altered in any way internally. It is a stock with the exception of an Vararam air intake system and a LG Motorsports GT4 exhaust system. The car has been dyno tuned professionally by the best in the industry at a great expense with the best return - LSX Performance Dyno Tuning near Houston TX. Videos and pictures are provided to document the entire progress of this build, including the dyno charts showing the INCREDIBLE 512 rwhp (to the rear tire, not to the crank) and 511 lb/ft tq. The factory "505" crank hp is approximately 430-440 rwhp. The tune is extremely conservative and safe yet IMPRESSIVE and reliable. I've never had a check engine light show up nor any mechanical issues whatsoever.

The interior is in new condition... completely stock and original with the exception of an aftermarket Pioneer double din headunit (to replace the factory navigation) powering the factory BOSE stereo. It's top of the line with phone controls, pandora, bluetooth, etc.

You may notice two different sets of wheel/tire combo's in the pictures. The larger diameter wheels and tires are ADV.1 wheels, custom built for this car (ADV15 track spec wheels in titanium finish - 3 piece forged) in a 20x10 front and 21x13.5 rear setup. They are wrapped in Pirelli tires with 375/20r21 rears - this means 15" of contact patch per tire, for a solid 30" of grip/traction. This set of wheels is quite dear to me and is an optional upgrade to the sale as I would prefer to keep them. If you opted out of this wheel setup, the alternate option is also pictured below - the factory set of c6z06 wheels (with proper spacers for fitment), just stripped and powdercoated professionally in a similar finish as the ADV.1 wheels. The tires will be nearly new, including a pair of Khumo track drag radial 335's on the rear (even more traction than the Pirelly 375's).

The $40k asking price is with the factory 18-19 Z06 wheels as mentioned above. If you decide to purchase the car with the ADV.1 wheels, the asking price is $52k. I realize it's a significant markup for wheels, yet I can't stress how expensive this set was to purchase.

I am open to reasonable trade offers, not particularly limited to any "genre"; nearly anything offered would be considered, provide the value of the trade is set fairly. Clean and clear title, carfax, owner's manuals, receipts and both key fob's and factory keys in hand. No joy rides and please don't waste my time or yours if you don't have the funds available; I am not rushing to sell, I still daily drive it and love every minute of it.

2006 year model, 70ish k miles, 6sp, 7.0L 427ci LS7 motor. All service up to date. The car needs ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, it's ready for daily driving or a cross country trip, and OF COURSE, the TRACK (this car has not once been on a track). I still get 31-32 mpg on most hwy trips.

This car has been in several publishings and is being used on a regular basis for photoshoots, please expect an overwhelming amount of attention to come with the purchase of this vehicle.

Car is located in Raleigh NC (27616). Please call or text with ANY QUESTIONS or OFFERS - 919-264-2007. Available anytime. Pictures are CURRENT and EXACTLY as posted.

RECAP $40000 with stock wheels or $52000 with ADV1 wheels.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
