I am the second owner and have had this vehicle for over three
years. I seem to only be able to keep a vehicle for about two years, then I'm looking for something else. Every time, however, I start to list this car, I go for a drive and chicken out. There is no way to have another car with this kind of experience! With the top down, hearing the supercharger and exhaust makes it difficult to want to turn on the stereo (which sounds phenomenal). Here is a summary of this car; I bought it from the original owner in December, 2010, on
Ebay. The car had 1900 miles on it and
now has approximately 17,500. Optional equipment includes; Shaker 1000 Audio system I have all receipts and paperwork for this vehicle, since new. The original owner purchased the following aftermarket
items; “Shelby” map light accessory Shift boot trim (billet) (I don't like this trim piece and do not have it in the vehicle, but I did include it in some of the photos) Cup holder trim (Billet) Dash Plaque (Autographed by Carroll Shelby w/cert of
authenticity) Shelby GT500 sill plate (2) Shelby GT500 license plate frame (Billet) K&N intake and aircharger JBA exhaust w/Shelby tips I have done a couple things to the car since I've had it; Diablo Sport Programmer/Tuner (to be included with the vehicle). The car was then dyno-ed at 500 HP and 472 Ft-Lb @ the rear wheels. Although this was a lot of power, I grew use to it and wanted more. I installed sound insulation in the trunk and rear quarter panels, as the bass from the stereo caused a metal vibration sound only noticeable when standing outside of the vehicle. The insulation took care of this issue. The original owner purchased Super Snake wheels and
tires that came with the car when I bought it.
Personally I like the original wheels, so I kept the OEM and sold the aftermarket
wheels. I rolled that money into the engine and purchased; Smaller supercharger pulley combo with idler Afco Heat Exchanger NGK spark plugs Shelby Hood Struts (replaces hood prop) The car now has 597 HP and 624 Ft-Lb @ the rear wheels, which is more than enough. This car has never been raced and only adult driven. This car will get away from you if you're too heavy footed, so you really have to drive it (which is one of the reasons the original owner sold it and one of the reasons I love it so much). My favorite part of driving this car is getting on the freeway; that is pretty much the only time I let it run out, as I do not need a ticket. Although it has 17k miles, it still looks great and has no
door dings or curb marks on the wheels. I replaced the tires about four thousand miles ago (Yokohama
AdvanSport) and a new battery 03/13. This car is not my daily driver and I pretty much only drive it when it is top down weather. Additionally, I only hand wash it. I will include the convertible boot cover and car cover. Imperfections; In my attempt to park as far away from anything in our
garage, I brushed against the garage door and scraped the paint on the right
front bumper (shown in photos). There are a couple rock chips on the hood over the left
headlight and two small rock chips on the driver side door. I attempted to photograph them, but they’re
difficult to see. Finally, there is a small chip taken out of the vinyl stripe
on the hood, by the right side windshield washer (the white paint is not
affected). I have described everything I can think of. I am a man of my word, and my feedback reflects it. If you do not have 100% positive feedback, or NO feedback, you need to contact me prior to bidding. I know the market and what this car is worth. I am starting the bidding at 33k, which is the minimum that I will even consider, as I do not need to sell. I am not interested in any trades. There is no lien on the vehicle and I have title in hand. This vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction at any time. I have more photos available upon request. Thanks for looking, Scott 602-478-2308 |

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
2016 Chevrolet Camaro starts at $26,695
Fri, Aug 21 2015Parking the new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro in your driveway will cost $26,695, including the $995 destination charge. That's a cut from $27,000 for the same trim on a 2015 Camaro. If you prefer a V8 under the hood, then the base 1SS goes for $37,295, compared to $34,500 for that model currently. The 2016 Camaro is offered as a coupe and convertible in four trim levels: 1LT, 2LT, 1SS, and 2SS. The LT is available with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 275 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque or a 3.6-liter V6 with 335 hp and 284 lb-ft. The SS gets a 6.2-liter V8 with 455 hp and 455 lb-ft. The first examples arrive before the end of the year, but droptops and the turbo engine don't materialize until the first quarter of 2016. Base models come with tech like Chevy's MyLink infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, a rearview camera, automatic climate control, and multiple driving modes. The RS Package adds to the style with 20-inch wheels, HID headlights, LED taillights, a different grille insert, and rear spoiler. Opting for the SS brings a more aggressive exterior look, plus performance upgrades like Brembo brakes, differential and transmission coolers, and a limited slip differential on those with a manual gearbox. Upgrading to the 2SS adds amenities like heated and ventilated front seats, wireless phone charging, a Bose stereo, rear cross-traffic alert, and Side Blind Zone Alert with Lane Change Alert. Options like a Magnetic Ride Control suspension and dual-mode exhaust offer additional sportiness. Reading about the 2016 Camaro is nice, but Chevy now has a visualizer for the pony car. It's not quite a full configurator but lets you check out different colors, wheels, and stripes to imagine your future purchase. Enjoy finding just the right combo.

The 2016 Camaro offers higher levels of performance, technology and refinement, starting at a suggested retail price of $26,695 for the Camaro 1LT, while the most powerful Camaro SS ever starts at $37,295 for the 1SS.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
