   1986 Corvette, Automatic transmission with 93,305 miles..runs and drives great. No drips, No leaks. This car is very sounds and ready to drive, a little time and love would go a long way on this car. Has newer after market rims, with low millage Z rated tires (cost me over $220 each) Also has newer exhaust, Y pipe was replaced and new flow master mufflers. The heat and air both work good - the AC will need charged. Both headlight motors have been redone and work great, both power window motors have been changed and work great. I couldn't get the lock correct, so it needs "tucked" back inside the panel, but works fine. Both door panels have a screw in the corner, to hold them tight (done by previous owner - the plastic clips must have broken) The dash board was replaced and is nice. The radio works, but has a short, banging on it seems to fix.?  The leather seats are OK, for 27 years old, the power adjustment on the seats are pulling out of the boxes, could be glued back/repaired, but no huge tears in the leather. I only drove this car 10 or 15 times last year, I only drive on weekend days where you can remove the top and enjoy. The removable top has 2 cracks, one on each side edge, and can be replaced - for now I have filled the cracks with super glue and they only have a minor drip if left in rain or power washed. There are a few minor cracks in plastic pieces here and there, about what you expect from the age of the plastic. The dashboard has 2 small lights on speedometer out, but the panel is bright and works perfect. The outside paint looks good when wet, pictures were taken just after it rained it clean (was very dirty from sitting for 6 months) but the black is very faded, mostly near the back, and the is a scratch down the drivers side door (courtesy of my EX)  When very first started it smokes a bit of exhaust, just for a second, and kind of jumps a little bit when first put into drive..Its a GREAT car to drive, nothing else drives or rides like a VETTE. but I don't have the time or extra spending money to make it what it could be. Pictures will tell the story, I will add more later. Feel free to ask any Q's I'm sure I forgot to add something. Its a very solid running Corvette with good millage. I bought from a friend and have owned for about 8 years, and i am the cars 3rd owner.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

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.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
