1999 Chevrolet Tahoe – PPV (Police Pursuit Vehicle)

 This is a true Police Package Tahoe, not a special service or stripped government truck. It spent its life in the Beverly Hills police department and Orange County California, so no rust. The handling of this vehicle is truly shocking as it will keep up with average BMW around the cloverleafs !

 Available from 1997-1999, the Police Package Chevrolet Tahoe was a heavily modified police truck with Z56 suspension package that includes bilstein gas shocks (replaced in 2012), powered by a 255 hp, 5.7 liter Vortec V-8 matched to a four-speed automatic overdrive transmission that was rebuilt at Westminster Transmission ($3500) by previous owner in 2011.

The PPV is the full Police Package Tahoe and an inch lower than regular Tahoes, had a unique plastic grill with single headlights, and was only available in 2-wheel drive. In testing, the Police Package Tahoe, it had almost the exact same performance figures as the police sedans of that time. The Chevy Tahoe saw many uses in police departments. Many used them for K-9 units, supervisor units, traffic units and other specialized applications. Not every Chevy Tahoe used by police departments was a police package like this one is.

 The interior is blue, original, and in good condition for a vehicle of this age. CarpetsThe 6-way driver seat is incredibly comfortable and has the original leather stitched in to protect the seat from a holstered gun. There is an Alpine Sirius radio installed with premium speakers and large amp.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
