Chevrolet Corvette Coupe on 2040-cars
Menahga, Minnesota, United States
I purchased this Corvette from a Washington state Honda dealer last year. The dealer installed new brakes and the new tires when I bought it last fall and they have no more than 200 miles on them right now. Reason is it snowed right after it was delivered and I put it in storage. Got it back out now that warmer weather has arrived. It's very clean and runs perfect. All adjustments on both Sport Seats work fine as does the cruise control, the cassette player, etc... Mileage will go up a little as I will drive it occasionally weather permitting. I've decided to get something a little easier to get in and out of. I'm a senior and should have recalled this from my '86 Corvette I had 15 years ago. There are a few minor paint blemishes. Small paint chips in the front from sand/rocks. The top of the front urethane bumper was repainted before I got it because of the clear coat separating. This is a common problem. They did not completely remove the old clear coat on the top of the bumper and if you look closely you can see it, but if you're a few feet away you won't. The paint match was good though. Some light clear coat bubbling on the edge of the Targa top. Some minor color wear on the drivers seat bolster, which can be seen in the pic's. New headliner installed due to the original sagging a bit. New sun visors with the lighted vanity mirrors also. Interior is very nice. The day I took it in to have it checked out thoroughly, the alternator started making noise. New alternator and battery installed along with all new Kicker speakers for the stereo. Stereo sounds good. It is the factory stereo with cassette. All gauges work fine too. New remote entry key fob. Corvette has the passive entry system where the car unlocks when you get close to it with the fob. It can also be disabled to use the key fob button for the doors. Clean engine compartment as you can see in the pic's. Some of these pictures were from the dealer I bought it from. This is a very nice running and looking stock Corvette you will be proud to own and the lowest priced 6-speed you will find in nice condition. Check my feedback, as I give an honest appraisal of anything I sell and welcome calls or emails for further questions. 651.470.6621, Brad. Thanks for looking. .

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.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
