Chevrolet Camaro 6 Speed Z 28 on 2040-cars
Leslie, Arkansas, United States
|
I purchased this car last October from the original owner with 37,000 miles on it. It now has 40,000 miles. When I got it, it was completely original, completely stock. Since then, I have done the following: I removed factory wheels and tires and changed them to 17 inch wheels. The center caps in the wheels are from an early 80's Z 28. Tires are VREDESTEIN SESSANTAS 270/40 ZR 17 (don't feel bad, I never heard of the brand either, but Google it and you will understand the quality of these tires) There is $1300 in the tires and wheels As soon as I got the car I changed brake pads all 4 corners ( I think it still had the originals on it). I changed the oil and filter with synthetic oil, even though the oil only had about 4,000 miles on it, to me it looked dirty. I then got the cowl induction hood. The Harwood hood was $650. The original hood will go with the car. When I had the hood painted, I also painted the mascara effect headlight buckets to match the car. I installed brighter headlights, I changed all 4 corner clearance lights to black lenses. I then put beefed up driving/fog lights on that required relays. I have kept all of the original lights which will go with the car. I then went to work on the sound system. It's a high end Pioneer with hands free telephone capabilities, navigation system, satellite radio, and a back-up camera installed in the rear bumper. Total cost of sound was $2,000. While the sound was being installed, I changed out all the factory speakers to a better quality speaker. The lows are deep without rattling and the highs are crisp. I also installed a sub/woofer and a separate amp in the trunk. I don't know if you can see it in a pic or not, but the microphone for the hands free phone is in the center of the top of the windshield. Hopefully, one of the photos shows the antennae for the satellite radio which is mounted in the center of the windshield side of the dashboard. At the time I had the sound system installed, I also had all the windows tinted. I don't remember the exact cost, but I think it was about $175.00. The rear camera is wired so it can be used all the time whether you are driving or not. Thus, I can use it as a rear view mirror, since the back window in this convertible is very, very small. The CD/VCR player is also wired so it can be used while the vehicle is in motion in case the passenger wants to watch movies while enroute. Everything I have done to this car has been strictly nuts and bolts. So, if a purist out there wants it, it can all go back to stock. The factory wheels are in exceptionally good condition and will go with the car including all the original lug nuts, including the locking nuts and lug wrench. One of the wheels has a very slight scuff on it (you have to really look for it to even see it!) The tires that came with it still have a lot of tread. I was going to put pics of the factory wheels on the ad, but I don't know how to put more than 24 photos on the ad. If anyone wants to see pictures of the wheels/tires, let me know and I will email them to you. The convertible top was replaced by the original owner with a factory equipment top. The car has never been in an accident. I am not interested in any trade ins whether it has wheels or wings. If you have to get permission from your wife, girlfriend, or Mommy, please do it before you bid. I have had to start over with an ad before because someone wanted to purchase something without getting permission. I am located approximately an hour and a half northwest of Little Rock, Arkansas if anyone would like to come take a test ride before bidding. I have absolutely nothing to hide. I can't imagine if you like the color combination on this vehicle you could find one any nicer or better equipped. Now that I have this looking exactly as I wanted it, I realized that I just don't enjoy a car this big. I am used to having sports cars, and have purchased the Miata which you can see in some of the pictures. The car has been garaged since I purchased it, and whereas the original owner claimed he had never driven it in the rain, there are times I have been out when it started raining, and rather than walk home, I decided to drive it! The original owner was older, as I am also. The car has never been driven hard or abused. As can be seen in one of the pics, there is a wear mark on the lower side of the driver's seat. That is the only thing I see wrong with the interior. Since it has been driven for 40,000 miles-yes, there are a few stone chips in the front. This is not a show car; I have kept in in my garage and not in my bedroom. However, I feel it is exceptionally clean and way, way, way above average. Gas mileage is claimed to be 17 and 25; whereas I myself have not checked that, it feels about right. For anybody who does not want to come here and drive it home, I will not arrange shipping, but I will cooperate with your shipper to the best of my ability as long as I have a day's notice. Anyone who would like additional pictures from different angles, or closeups, please let me know and I will try to accommodate you. If anyone would like details not specified, call me and I will answer your questions as honestly as possible at phone number 501-745-6117. Keep trying, I am not home much. As I am still driving this car occasionally, mileage will increase slightly. There is no lien, I have the title right here. The $200.00 deposit is via Paypal and is nonrefundable. Payment is expected in cash when car is picked up. If paying by check in any form, check will have to be converted to cash before vehicle and title are released. I realize that the honest buyers out there are in the majority, so I apologize if some of my remarks sound snide. I am just tired of dealing with tire kickers who do not carry through with the transaction. Thank you for your understanding. There are probably things I have forgotten to mention. When they come to me, I will add them to the ad. I am sorry this text is so lengthy, but I could not figure a way to make it more concise. |

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out
Thu, 29 Apr 2010Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
