On Feb-08-13 at 10:01:07 PST, seller added the following information:
friday:I would like to correct something in this listing.When I bought the car 1 year ago locally the carfax showed a slightly different history.It showed 2 previous owners.I can't explain (perhaps carfax got updated info from texas)but all the same it had a 54 rating for less owners.All I can do is apologize.I want to impress that this is an original car.easily proven by the lack of rust in the key areas.and the presence of many original parts on and under the car.In the time I had the car I had to replace many parts which is typical for a low mileage car that is driven after sitting.New starter,alternator,harmonic balancer on the engine,New valve body in the transmission,new power steering control valve,A/c work.Basically I updated all the things that go bad after a car sits even under the best of conditions.Some people think you can by a 30 year old car with 10,000 miles on it and they got themselves a brand new car,many times this far from the truth.Anyway this car drives razor straight at any speed (hands of the wheel) Shifts great,and down shifts perfectly which is a problem with many 82,s(first year with 700r4 4 speed tranny)locks up the torque converter at the right time and unlocks with just a touch on the gas.and does exactly 4x the speed of the tach in overdrive (1500 rpm @60mph)which easily translates into 24mpg on the highway if you can resist the temptation of hitting the gas.It has every possible option including
CC1-REMOVABLE GLASS PANELS
N90-ALUMINUM WHEELS
AG9-POWER DRIVER SEAT
C49 REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
D84-2 TONE PAINT
FE7-GYMKHANA SUSPENSION
U-75-POWER ANTENNA
AU3-POWER DOOR LOCKS/WINDOWS
LET ME KNOW IF THER ARE ANY UNDERCARRAGE,OR ANY SPECIFIC PICTURES.THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.
