Im putting up for sale a rare & unique 1996 LT4 Corvette coupe. Car is in excellent condition with only 60k miles & has an excellent carfax. Fist off the car is an LT4 model. The LT4 engine was only available to 6 speed models in 1996. These motors were known to have been grossly underrated in power output by GM. The official GM stated output was 330hp, however many stock units were dyno'd at close to 400hp. Most speculate GM deliberately underrated them so they wouldn't overshadow the upcoming LS1 engine in the C5 corvette. To make this car stand out from other LT4s out there it has had thousands of dollars in extras/modifications invested in it. Here is a list of what has been done or installed:
1. Genuine GM Grandsport Rims
2. Brand new matching tires all around(275/40/17s front & 315/35/17 rears).
3.Long tube headers(I still have the originals)
4. Borla exhaust
5.Custom 3 inch tubing with X-pipe connecting headers to the Borlas
6.MSD Digital 6 Plus Ingition, MSD wires, and MSD Coil(coil not installed yet)
7.Grandsport paint stripes
8. New double din JVC cd/radio with aftermarket speakers replacing the Bose units.
9. Hypertech programmed with programmer included.
10. B&M Short Shifter.
Car is Torch Red with the black Grandsport stripe scheme. No leaks. Goes down the road straight. Manual 6-speed transmission. Leather dual power seats in great shape. Auto climate control that blows cold air. All manuals(including original window sticker), two sets of keys with key fobs. I have the security socket for the lug nuts as well as the ratchet for the roof. Paint & body are in awesome shape. Id rate them a 9 out of 10. Interior is a 7.5 out of 10 with some signs of wear hear & there.
The bad: the power antenna mast no longer goes down. Its stuck in the up position & the motor works but it needs a new ribbon(I have the repair kit, just havent installed it). Also some of the weather stripping is starting to dry up.

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.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
