2007 Z51 3LT CORVETTE. MANUAL, HUD, NAV, TRANSPARENT ROOF 63.5K
Z51 3LT. Burgundy with Camel Leather interior.
I am the 2nd owner after a one year lease. I have had no mechanical issues with the car. It has been rock solid in
every way. The car has been and is amazing in my opinion. A total delight.
The Vette is respected. Always garaged or covered at my work. I do not drive in the rain, race, over-rev, stress or
abuse. I buy Lucas Oil gasoline additive by the gallon and I have added it into every tank 99.9% of the time. I
have performed two induction services, not because it needed it, but only because I am keeping the internal engine
pristine. Of course only Mobil 1 oil is used. I have rarely, maybe five times, used the air conditioner. It is ice
cold.
Washed weekly and detailed using only McGuire products and Aerospace 303. Waxed every quarter. I blow dry the car
after every hand wash. The paint has minimal swirls and is glossy. All crevices and the engine and interior are
wiped clean with a moist microfiber rag. The undercarriage and chassis is monitored at each wash and kept very
clean. The rubber is treated with silicon, the glass with alcohol. I weigh 160 lbs. The seats are firm and new
feeling. I do not smoke. I do not eat in the car. The upholstery is excellent and smells neutral or new.
The new Nitrogen filled Michelin Pilot Sport Run-Flat tires have 3K on them. The brakes are excellent. The engine
and drive train are excellent. The Battery is sealed top of the line. The rubber seals throughout the entire car
are soft and supple and excellent. The plastics are moist, shiny, preserved and protected because of the Aerospace
303. The Bose Premium Stereo is excellent. The Navigation with the stock disk and DVD player is excellent. Two
fobs, a car cover and cargo net are included.
Minor Blemishes include:
1. 1. On the hood there is a 2mm paint chip from a highway gravel which also made a similar 2mm nick on the
windshield.
2. 2. On the side top edge of the body, where the hatchback seam is located, there are some minor scratches to the
paint, as if the guy who leased it for a year let his golf bag drag across it as he was putting in into the luggage
hold.
3. 3. Car Fax Reports a minor incident that I was aware of when I purchased the car. I, myself, had it thoroughly
evaluated. I purchased the Vette, brought it home and had it fixed at my dealer. Damage Problem: The front nose
fiberglass was cracked. There was no other damage. The guy probably nosed to close to something. Solution: I had
the nose replaced at my dealer Michael Chevrolet of Fresno. I came by after work each day and witnessed each phase
of their replacement and paint matching. I requested no license plate holes.
3. 4. Corvette industries and all Dealerships will admit that the Transparent Roof will develop some micro fine
hairline striations over time. These micro fine hairline striations are unavoidable and almost undetectable. They
are inherent in the plastic.
These blemishes were there the day I purchased the car and were too minor for me to consider with such a beautiful
Vette as it is.
There are many specifications as you know, especially with the 3LT. And then there is the Z51 package to consider.
Please read up and ask if you need further clarification.
Just so you know: Dual 8 way power – heated seats, driver into/exit memory. Auto dimming rearview with compass.
Dual lighted vanity. Steering is telescopic/tilt. Navigation has a voice option. XM capable with hidden antennae in
driver side mirror. HUD and Digital displays for all fluids, gases, and G rated turns. Security Alarm.
Personal Notes: This is my second Vette. I have preserved this car since day one. The color combination is pure
class. The lines and symmetry of the body are beautiful. The engineering is exhilarating EVERY time you drive it.

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine

Tue, Oct 28 2014

As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.

2015 Chevy Silverado Custom Sport is subtle in black

Mon, Jan 12 2015

In a world where trucks are growing bigger, bolder grilles and more muscle-bound looks, Chevrolet is trying something a bit different with its recently revealed Custom Sport edition for the 2015 Silverado at the this year's Detroit Auto Show. The edition leans on being understated, instead of screaming about its abilities. The design is supposed to be a throwback to the Chevy Custom Sport Trucks of the late '60s that brought a touch of elegance to these usually utilitarian vehicles at the time. The heart of the package is its monochromatic body-color touches for the bumpers and grille surround. The one on display at the show is especially attractive with a chrome-accented black grille that fits perfectly with the rest of the body. The edition does get a bit more shine with chrome covering the 20-inch wheels, door handles, mirror caps and side moldings. In addition, buyers get projector beam headlights, tow hooks and heated power mirrors. The custom package is available on the LT trim in black or white and on the LTZ in black or White Diamond Tricoat. Take a look at this monochromatic take on the Silverado as it sits in the Motor City. 2015 SILVERADO OFFERS CUSTOM SPORT PACKAGE Inspired by Chevy Custom Sport Trucks that helped launch personal-use pickups DETROIT, 07/01/15 – With the new 2015 Silverado Custom Sport special edition, Chevrolet pays homage to one of its most iconic pickups, adding a sophisticated monochromatic look to double- and crew-cab Silverados. The Custom Sport package features body-colored front and rear bumpers and a body-colored grille surround with a chrome-accented black grille. Other accents include 20-inch chrome wheels, chrome door handles and mirror caps, and chrome body-side moldings. The package also includes projector beam headlamps, tow hooks and heated power-adjusted mirrors. "The Custom Sport special edition was inspired by Chevy Custom Sport Trucks of the late 1960s," said Sandor Piszar, Chevrolet Trucks marketing director. "Those CST models added a touch of elegance to a great all-around truck, just like the Custom Sport package for the new Silverado." The redesigned 1967 Chevrolet pickup entered the market at a time when trucks were starting to move off the jobsites and into the driveways of cities and suburbs. The 1967 Custom Sport Truck, with its bright trim, plush carpet and bucket seats, helped launch a wave of personal use pickups that continues today.

2020 Ford Escape hybrids vs other crossover fuel sippers: How they compare on paper

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Along with a new generation of Escape, Ford also reintroduced the world to the 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid. And if that weren't enough, Ford is adding a plug-in hybrid version. This is a sign of the times: people are more crossover crazy than ever, but are also seeking ways to use less fuel, whether it's for environmental or purely money-motivated reasons. The Ford hybrids aren't the only fuel-efficient compact crossovers on the market. They will be going head-to-head with conventional hybrids including the 2019 Kia Niro, 2019 Nissan Rogue Hybrid and 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. There are other plug-in hybrids including the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek PHEV, 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and the plug-in version of the 2019 Kia Niro. There are even a couple diesels in the form of the 2019 Chevy Equinox and 2019 GMC Terrain. So we've rounded up the details on all these crossovers to see who leads and lags in criteria such as power, fuel efficiency, space and price. Check out all their details below. 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid View 68 Photos How do their engines and fuel economy compare? Conventional Hybrids and Diesels Let's face it, if you're buying one of these crossovers, one of the things that matters most to you is just how frugal with fuel they are. We'll start off with the conventional hybrids and diesels, and the clear victor is the Kia Niro, which in base FE trim, manages to hit 50 mpg combined. This is thanks to it sharing its powertrain with the Hyundai Ioniq, the Hyundai equivalent of the Toyota Prius. Buyers should take note that only the FE returns such high fuel economy. The LX and EX drop to 49 mpg, and the S Touring and Touring get 43. Even then, the least efficient Niro is the most efficient of the normal hybrids and diesels. It is nearly the least powerful, though, with 139 horsepower. Just behind it is the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. It delivers 40 mpg combined, and it has an ace up its sleeve: it comes standard with all-wheel drive. Every other vehicle in this powertrain group has front drive standard, and the Niro isn't available with all-wheel drive at all. If that weren't enough, the RAV4 Hybrid also boasts the most power at 219 horses. While we can't say anything about Escape Hybrid fuel economy, we do know that it will make 198 horsepower, which is close to the class-leading RAV4. The least powerful of these is the Equinox and Terrain, and they return the worst fuel economy at 32 mpg.
