I am the Original OWNER of this fully loaded 2000 C5 Corvette … I ordered it from Anderson Chevrolet in Cupertino, CA and I took delivery in October 1999
208,302 miles (But the car drives awesome and feels like half the mileage) the car is 15 years old and this means the car travelled about an average of 14k miles per year with the exception of the last three years when it’s been only occasionally driven as I am retired, probably less than 3k mikes a year. As long as I’ve owned this Corvette the predominant usage has been on the highway (I was a salesman)….I rarely had to replace brakes!
Engine is strong and uses no oil. Oil and filter have been changed within the prescribed mileage intervals and only with Mobil 1. It has a Donaldson Blackwing Air Filter
Transmission shifts smooth and crisply. Recently I replaced the Reverse Synchronizer and gear, and the other gear assemblies were prefect!
Clutch is tight and responsive and has much of its life left. It has had 3 clutches and all have been Luk Gold clutch/pressure plate assemblies. Current clutch has about 15K on it.
Differential is an A&A Specialties 3.90 (I replaced the stock 3.73) and it makes 6th gear much more useable at freeway speeds and pulls very hard under acceleration!
Bassani Quad Tip Stainless Steel Exhaust system w/X-pipe
Griffin LS1/6 2 Row 1 1/4 ” aluminum Radiator
Z51 Performance Handling Package
Active Handling System w/control button
Lowered 3/4 ” utilizing Bilstein shocks
Exterior body and paint is in good condition commensurate with a 15 year old car and shows no dings, but does have some scratching and rock chips on the nose car SEE PICS!
Interior is nice and has maintained all its appeal. No smells and no foul odors. The driver's seat shows some tears/wear around the edges of the driver’s bolster (see pics) …passenger seat almost unused but aged.. Included are two NEW Sport Seat Covers (see pics)
The Interior includes ALL the options available that year, HEADS UP Display, 6-way power seats on both sides, Dual Zone Air Conditioning, Bose AM/FM Stereo w/ remote Compact 12 disc changer, Twilight Sentinel and power Telescoping Steering Column
Roof package includes BOTH roofs. Lt. Pewter and Blue Transparent which is in excellent condition, only used maybe 6 times. Removable Tops lock and unlock perfect and absolutely no signs of any leaks.
Tires are Brand New!.. just installed
Wheels are the optional Magnesium. They are in reasonable condition but do show some signs of road rash and some paint chipping… see pics
This car was not a “garage queen”, I’ve had several Corvettes (C4s & C5s) and I bought them because I love to drive them!! If you are looking for a pristine example to grace your garage and be driven on sunny Sundays, this car might not be for you…If you are a gear head looking for a well-equipped Corvette to drive, renovate or convert to a track car…This is it!... This car will only go up in value as the years go by and there is less and less of these around (Especially this well-equipped)
Premium All weather Car Cover (virtually unused) included
Set of three factory shop manuals included and many docs, receipts, instructions etc.
Box of extras, including Red Z06 valve covers, several hi-po shifters, stock air box, fuel filters, shifter knobs etc

Please this is being listed locally and I reserve the right to withdraw on prior sale

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.

Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
