Palm Springs, California, United States

 This is without question one of the Toughest decisions I've ever had to make.  Let me explain why...

I remember when I was about 12 years old and I was outside of my house riding my bike with a friend.  We had built this little (Monstrous to us at the time, lol) ramp, placed baseball cards in our spokes to make our bikes sound cool and were getting ready to ride down our hill and hit the ramp like Evil Knievel.  My Friend started to go first and as he started going we all of a sudden heard this Amazing Roar (for a slight second we thought it was the his bike from the baseball cards)!!  This Roar, this Sound we could hear from around our corner.  It was Loud, it was Mean, it was Cool whatever it was.  We looked at each other in Great suspense as to what it was.  We waited in anticipation to catch the first glimpse of the nose of this Beast that was getting ready to turn the corner of our Neighborhood. 

Just as we couldn't wait a second longer, there it came.  This rumbling, throaty, ground shaking MONSTER peaking its nose at the corner stop sign.  It was sleek, it was Ready it was something I hadn't ever seen before.  And, there it came, eyes pointing straight at us as if it was going to Eat us for Breakfast.  All of a Sudden it took off like a Rocket, tires spinning, smoke pillowing up behind it as it headed right towards us as if it was going to take off like a Jet!  And, boy, it sounded just like one coming down that street!

We waited for about 2.2 seconds before that Beast pulled up in front of the house across from us.  The car stayed there and ran as he hit the gas pedal and I saw the car shake, rock back and forth with all the horsepower just Screaming through it.  He hit the gas a Second time and it was as if all that POWER just sucked the Oxygen out of the air as we stood there in awe, feeling the ground shaking below our feet and of what was in front of us.  It was a 1995 Z28 5.7 liter V8 Camaro that just rocked our entire Neighborhood and at that very moment changed my Life forever.  I knew one day, I would own that car.....

Fast forward 20 years...

I own this car, I saved every penny I could to buy this car.  I worked overtime for more than two years to save for it.  I searched dozens and dozens of Camaro's until I found the Perfect one and this was it.  I Love this car.  After our Kids went off to college I couldn't wait to go out and get it and I did. I washed and waxed it every Sunday.  I kept it in the garage covered up.  We took it out Every Saturday night.  My eyes would water up every time I got into it.  It brought back that Childhood memory every time I saw it.

Well, after enjoying my Pride and Joy.......my Wife surprised me with news of a New Pride and Joy that will be entering our lives in about 8 months.  My first thought was my Camaro.  My second thought was the start of a new college fund.  We thought we were past the "Baby raising stages" and getting ready to finish paying for two already in college.  But, that's ok.  I am happy, excited and of course a little nervous at the same time.

I am starting this Auction off at $1.00 and it will sell to the highest well deserved bidder for them to enjoy for a long time as I did.  I spent $10,000 on the car when I purchased it.  I was told that it has just about 500hp in it and well, it feels like it when you take off!!  (i have not personally had it Dyno'd) It has 80,000 ORIGINAL miles and a CLEAN CARFAX.  It has scratches from a runaway shopping cart a couple months ago (pretty easy fix).  It is loaded with all the options, Leather, AC, Custom Exhaust also installed., Power Windows and Locks.  It has an Alarm system (COBRA) installed.  Everything works, but of course its not perfect (to me it is, but to someone that is more knowledgeable than me it may be less than a 10).

This is a California car.  There is ZERO and I mean ZERO rust!  I will assist with shipping (cost of course would be the responsibility of the buyer).  

Hope everyone has an Awesome Day!





The car is sold as is where is.  no warranties expressed or disclosed.  all inspections are welcome and encouraged.  bidding is the responsibility of the buyer.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
