1999 Chevrolet Corvette black on black hatchback coupe, 131,xxx miles, with a 5.7L 345 HP engine and 4-speed overdrive automatic transmission. The black interior has the six-way leather power sport seats (both driver & passenger), PW, PL, Dual Zone A/C, tilt and telescoping wheel, heads up display (speed, RPM’s & gas), Active Handling System and the Bose Premium AM/FM CD player. The tires are Nitto Extreme ZR radials- Front-P245/45ZR17, Rear-P275/40ZR18 with approximately 3/4 tread left and mounted on factory rims. Recently replaced items on the car are:

New headlight gears (brass gears replaced stock plastic ones)
New slotted rotors front & rear with ceramic brake pads
Water pump
New A/C compressor & dryer with a Freon fill up
New oil sender unit
New coolant overflow tank (old one cracked so we replaced it)
The serpentine belt idler pulley has been replaced maybe twice now.
The targa top has fresh clear coat applied less than two months ago.

Other options on the car are the removable glass Targa top, performance axle ratio (3.15:1) with a limited slip differential, fog lamps, rear window defogger, alarm system, factory floor mats, memory package, tire air pressure sensors and factory body side moldings. This car runs great and looks good, but there are the normal minor scratches and rock chips as this was my wife's daily driver.

The only known problems with the car are as follows: the passenger side power window and power lock has stopped working (Corvette Forums claim this is a symptom of a broken ground wire going to the door), the rear hatch corvette emblem has lost its red flag insert, the driver seat cover has seam issues and a hole in it (see pictures) and a drip or two of transmission fluid every once in a while on the garage floor. The car will come with the original window sticker, wheel lock key and factory paperwork (The car Stickered for $43,335 new). Thank you for taking a look at our car and good luck bidding.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
