Condition

Drivetrain

Engine starts right up and runs strong as you would expect with low mileage.  3.9L high output V6 engine.  Only 67k miles.  Title is checked off "not actual miles" and lists "9 miles".  I believe the currently displayed mileage to be correct.  No engine knocking, smoke, or dripping leaks. Underside of engine looks dry as you can see in pics. Shifts into and through all gears smoothly as it should. Has very powerful acceleration and cruises at highway speed.  Has been fleet serviced since new.  These engines normally last 300k+ miles with proper maintenance. 

Exterior     

Paint has all of its factory shine and glistens in the sun as you can see.  No dents or rust on the body.  There may be a few very minor blemishes here and there but body is straight and in very good condition as you can see.  The bumpers have some scuffs.  There were 3 roof mounted antennas that were removed and holes plugged.  There was a spotlight that was removed and the base plate is still mounted.  While this is not a showroom new vehicle, it is in exceptional condition for its age and mileage.  This is one of the nicest Police Impalas I have had. 

Interior

Interior is in very good condition with no rips or tears in carpet or seats.  No excessive wear.  The stock vinyl floor was removed and a new aftermarket carpet installed for aesthetic purposes. There are a few tiny holes drilled in the trim panel around the radio where some equipment was mounted.  Inside is fresh and clean with no evidence of smoking or pets.  The ABS light is on, and pertains to a faulty front left wheel speed sensor.  The right front tire pressure sensor is not working and the low tire icon/light is illuminated.  A/C  blows ICE COLD.  All interior electronics function as they should.       

Wheels and Tires

·  Tires have approximately 50%+ tread remaining. Has factory alloy LT/LS style rims.  

I have test driven approximately 50 miles and assessed the overall condition of the vehicle.  It should have no problem driving anywhere.  Obvious defects have been noted but there may be repairs required and additional defects beyond what is listed.  As I recommend to all my customers, you should have your mechanic look over any newly purchased vehicle before extensive use.  I have tried to list as many details about this vehicle as I can, including known defects.  Please keep in mind this was a police/emergency vehicle as well as salvage, and may have greater wear and tear than normal vehicle.  There may be deficiencies that I am not aware of so buyers are encouraged to inspect in person.  If you are local I encourage and welcome you to come down and check out the vehicle for yourself or have an independent inspection completed PRIOR to bidding.  There will be no price adjustments or sale cancellations for failure to do so.  IT IS THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO ASK QUESTIONS AND/OR INSPECT THE VEHICLE BEFORE BIDDING AND PURCHASE.  FAILURE OF THE BUYER TO DO SO DOES NOT CONSTITUTE NON-DISCLOSURE OF DEFECTS ON THE SELLERS PART.  I am happy to answer any questions so feel free to e-mail me or call.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.

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.
