1985 Red Corvette Only 14,000 Original Miles Cars like this are very hard to find. The first owner bought the car new and kept it in a heated garage under a custom car cover since new. This Corvette is all original, numbers matching, never wrecked, painted or had any body work. He drove it a little each summer. He owns a few Corvettes but this was the only one he bought new so he tried to keep the miles low. He is a retired mechanic and did his own maintenance and made sure all maintenance was performed and he stored the car properly at the end of each summer. I have loved this car for years and tried to get him to sell it to me many years ago but he was too attached to the car. I finally got him to make me a deal a year ago. I have had the air conditioning upgraded to the latest system and I fixed a minor emissions issue it had. The car runs and drives great and has that deep awesome Corvette sound and still puts a lot of power to the road. It has the sport seats with the Bose system, power windows, door locks, tilt wheel with telescoping feature, tinted glass removable roof and many more options. This car is all original, it even has the original tires. I would love to keep it but finances are forcing me to sell it. At nearly 30 years old with such low miles this is a classic Corvette that will only go up in value if it is kept in this same condition. I have the owner's manuals and everything that came new with the car. If you are looking for a really nice classic Corvette that can be driven and will appreciate in value then this is your car. The color combination with the condition and the low, low, miles makes this Corvette a very rare car. NADA book value on this car is $19,975.00 and they give no add for miles. Most cars this age have over 100,000 miles and have had multiple owners. You can tell from looking and driving this car that it has been very well preserved since the day it was bought. I am starting the auction at a very low price and the car will sell to the highest bidder. I will deliver the car within 300 miles for free. I will work with anyone who would like to ship the car anywhere and I will do what I can to help you with shipping. I require payment by wire transfer within 5 days of purchase and I require a $500 payment from PayPal within 24 hours of purchase. I have the title with no liens so the car is ready to go. I try to be very thorough in my description and if you check out my feedback I don't embellish the things I sell. This car is exactly how I've described it and to my knowledge everything works perfect. I had my mechanic go over it in the spring and the only things he suggested, which I did fix was to upgrade the air conditioning and fix an issue with the exhaust, which would occasionally cause the check engine light to come on. Since it was fixed I driven it all summer with no issues and ice cold AC. I haven't seen another 1985 Corvette in this kind of condition with this low of miles and with such a perfect color combination. If you have any questions or would like more pictures just call Doug at 208-403-3684 and I will help in any way I can. I hate to sell this car because I have wanted it for many years but things are just not good enough for me financially to justify keeping it. I want it to go to a good home where someone will continue to care for it the way it has been cared for the last almost 30 years. Bid with confidence you WON'T be disappointed in this car. I will include the car and dash covers. The car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time. If you love the car and have an offer that's fair call me and I will consider ending things early if I can get a fair price. I need the money and would like to sell the car fast. Call Doug at 208-403-3684 or send me questions through eBay and I will answer them. Thanks for the interest!!

Chevy Bolt wins 2017 Green Car of the Year
Thu, Nov 17 2016We knew that a plug-in vehicle was going to win the 2017 Green Car of the Year award this year, given that all five finalists have a way to charge up. And when Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, announced the winner – the 2017 Chevy Bolt EV – he said that the car itself represents one of those times in the auto industry when everything is about to change. Similar to the invention of the starter motor, things are about to get different. For now, though, the fact that the Bolt EV won an award sounds like the same old thing all over again. Just this week, it was named Motor Trends Car of the Year and to the Car And Driver Top 10 list. The other four finalists for Green Car of the Year included the Toyota Prius Prime, the Chrysler Pacifica, the Kia Optima (including hybrid and plug-in hybrid models) and the BMW 330e iPerformance. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt. Did Green Car Journal make the right selection this year? See the award ceremony below.
Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?
Wed, Mar 9 2016You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
