Livonia, Michigan, United States

1997 Chevy C5 Corvette Targa with glass top W/Z51 Performance Package. 6 speed Manual. White with Slate Grey and Black interior. Pics are of the ACTUAL Car and were taken at the MotorCity Gumball and Tail of the Dragon this summer... All decals have been removed except for the Gumball door logos which can be in a matter of minutes. No Joyrides as the roads are bad and salt covered. Car has 94k miles on it and runs/Drives perfect. Everything works (even air). Never seen a winter and is always stored in the garage. Clean Carfax in hand and available for review. I am the third owner even though Ebays title check says 4. and have had the car a year and put ~4000 miles on it over the summer. I bought this car specifically for the MCGB and am looking for something a little different this year. The paint is all original and in above average condition for the year of the car. People are surprised when I tell them it's a 1997.
Upgrades are:
1) Full C6 ZO6 suspension, Shocks, springs, swaybars, metal end links, and bushings. Installed in May of '13 ($1850)
2) Full Corsa Xtreme Cat back exhaust with x pipe. Full Stainless. ($1300) Installed in May of '13. Sounds fantastic.
3) K&N drop in filter and SLP lid.
4) Tsw Nurburgring Wheels (18" x 9" front and 19" x 10.5" rear) with Hankook K12 Evo Tires (265/40 front and 305/30 rear). ($2350). Less than 3000 miles on the tires. Installed in May of '13
Rest of the car is 100% Stock
Maintenance:
1) Front and rear pads and rotors (NAPA premium) May '13
2) GMPP Wires and Radium Plugs. May of '13
3) All fluids (Amsoil full synthetic) including trans, rear diff, brake fluid, power steering, and coolant. June of '13
4) All belts and hoses replaced along with idler and tensioner pulleys. August of '13
5) Water pump GMPP and thermostat. August of '13
6) Wiper Motor (common failure on C5s) June of '13
7) Clutch at 60k miles by previous owner done at the dealer. Shows on the car fax.
8) New battery June '13
Items that I would address if I were keeping the car:
1) Drivers seat upper bolster needs recovering.
2) Oil Pressure sensor needs to be replaced. ($40 part)
Have any questions? Let me know! Thanks!

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada
Thu, 21 Feb 2013Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.
