Featured in this auction is my 1999 Corvette Convertible C-5. The car is very near mint condition with only 50000 original miles. The car has never been smoked in and it has been garaged kept it's entire life. The guy that had it before I bought it had it in a climate controlled garage, I was told. I bought the car in April 2009 with 45,000 miles on it. I bought the car from Herlong Chevrolet out of Johnston S.C. It was a trade-in on a late model Cadillac and it came from near Charlotte N.C. I have had the car 4 years and I have put 5000 miles on it. It rarely gets driven and has become a garage queen. I don't want it to get hurt so the best way for me to prevent that is not to drive it, hence the low low miles since I have had it. There are only a couple very small nicks or scratches on the factory original paint. No paint work has been done on this car. I was going to get the couple very small nicks fixed and was told not to do so but to leave the car all original with no paint work at all. This car is completely original and since I have had it, it has been pampered and babied. The normal wear points are like new. The door jambs are as clean as new. The steering wheel very nice, seats very nice with protectors put on the seat bolsters to protect them. The car has an original remote operated 12 Disc Trunk Mounted CD Player. The car has Heads Up Display, Power Memory Seats and Memory Power Mirrors too. The car has a manual convertible top, Corvette didn't come out with a Power Top till several years later. The car has all options minus Z-51 suspension. The car does have traction control. The car gets great gas mileage at 22-24 mpg highway. This is a beautiful car, you must see it to appreciate it. The chrome wheels are factory Corvette wheels and the tires are good. I have not done anything to the car since I've had it, other than change the oil with Mobil 1 Synthetic as recommended. Kelly Blue Book Value for the car is:
Excellent-21047
Very Good-20647
Good-20297

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley 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:

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
