For sale a rare, and in excellent condition 1996 Corvette Grand Sport.

I bought the car ten years ago from a Corvette dealership in Orlando Florida.  I had owned a Grand Sport previously, but had to move to Denver so I had to let it go.  Once I got back out California, I missed it enough that I knew I had to find another one.

For those that don't know, the Grand Sport was the last of the C4 Corvettes ever produced, and was meant to send the C4 off in a big way.  It was given it's signature admiral blue with white stripe paint job, black ZR-1 style wheels, and some major engine upgrades to give it the one year only LT4 motor, among other improvements.  For a complete rundown on all of the changes to the Grand Sport over the regular Corvette, I'd really recommend checking out GrandSportRegistry.com.  It's an excellent resource, and I found it super handy while I was looking for mine.

Only 1,000 of these cars were ever produced.  Of that 1,000 only 810 where Coupes.  Of that 810 only 206 came with the Black Interior and with the F45 adjustable suspension.

Everything on the car is stock, just like the day it came off the line.

I'm a huge fan of the car.  It's not exactly what you'd call fast in a street light to street light kind of way, but my God, it is one of the best touring cars I've ever driven.  It's extremely comfortable once your inside ( which I'll admit, is a bit difficult due to the ride height, it's not the kind of car you'd want to go do errands in ), and it seems like it was built for the open road.  It's highly stable at very high speeds, and seems to have been geared more for top end cruising than drag racing.  I've taken several road trips in it, and have never once regretted choosing it over anything else.  I also find it to be one of the most beautiful cars ever produced.  The paint alone is absolutely stunning, but matched with the aggressive styling of the C4, the car is an absolute head turner.  I guarantee the next owner won't be able to take it out for a weekend and avoid getting some shout outs, she's absolutely beautiful out on the road.

Unfortunately due to some circumstances in my life I've had less and less free time to take her out and really enjoy her.  She deserves to be out there one the road doing what she was built to do, not sitting in a garage.  It's my most sincere hope that her next owner has the time to enjoy and respect her the way she deserves ( please, in the name of all that is good and Holy, DO NOT PUT A SPOILER ON HER ).

If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact me: 818-312-2526

Thanks very much for looking.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

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.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
