This is a beautiful, exceptionally maintained, one owner, world class sports car. I received delivery of the Grand Sport at Watson Chevrolet, at Tucson, Arizona in April, 2011 (MSRP: $62,120). I chose the Grand Sport because of several important features not available in the standard coupe. Visually, what first catches your attention are the flaired fenders, which are required to accommodate the larger tires and wheels. The suspension includes components and massive brakes from the Z06. Handling is further improved by the Magnetic Ride Control ($1,695). A turn of the control knob from Tour to Sport and the suspension immediately stiffens and improves handling and control. The dry sump oil system holds 10 quarts and assures that the engine does not starve for oil in tight turns, braking, or acceleration. The Dual Mode Exhaust ($1,195) system opens the exhaust baffles at 3,750 rpm as the engine hits it's torque curve, and creates a sound that is pure music. Also included is the Mild 2 Wild exhaust control system that with a push of a button on the remote control, opens the exhaust baffles and lets the owner appreciate the sound of the engine from idle to red line.

The LT2 package ($1,195) provided adjustable sport bucket seats with perforated leather inserts; power seat adjustments for driver and passenger, luggage shade and cargo net, and Bluetooth connection for phones. The chrome aluminum wheels ($1,995), and the Supersonic Blue ($300) were the icing on the cake.

The Grand Sport has always been garaged. The high gloss finish was maintained using Meguiars' Cleaner Wax. Only Mobile 1 silicon based oil has been used. It was always hand washed, and has never seen the inside of a car wash. Exterior and interior are a "10." No one has smoked in the car. My fuel economy ranges from around 19 mpg (suburban driving) to 26 plus mpg on the highway.

The General Motors warranty is good for another 84,000+ miles. Service records are available on request. The original Corvette Owner's CD and MSRP window sticker are included in the sale. Please let me know if you have further questions.

Over the last ten years, I sold my 2003 and 2008 Corvettes on eBay, and now my 2011. Please note that we have 100% satisfaction from our 683 eBay transactions. I hope the future owner enjoys this Grand Sport as much as we have. It's a great automobile.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
