2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

2008 Chevrolet Corvette ZO6

I am the 1 owner of this 2008 Chevrolet Z06 Corvette 1LZ. The exterior color is Black with Ebony leather interior. This Chevrolet Corvette is powered by the 7.0L / V8 engine, has a 6 speed manual transmission with 3594 miles and many very high quality upgrades.

All options are in working order which include power driver seat, power passenger seat, memory seats, push button start, Bose audio system, bluetooth, onstar, key-less remote entry, cruise control, tilt, heads up display, satellite radio, home-link, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, run flat tires, 18 inch front & 19 inch rear wheels in Anthrocite with matching Michelin Pilot Sport tires, 1 factory key / 1 remote, original owners manual,  and floor mats. Now for the important things.

All upgrades were performed when the car was broken in at 1000 miles in March of 2009. Most all of the miles on the car were put on it while I lived in Dallas. I recently moved to Virginia and had the car brought here in an enclosed trailor. There are NO stone chips on the front of this car or the mirrors. A Colgan car bra and mirror socks were used anytime the car was on the highway for a trip. The paint and interior are pristine with NO dings, chips or any damage whatsoever.


$15000 in additional Hi-Performance and other upgrades:

  • Quality Motorsports QM550 Package
  • QM 550 Camshaft and Upgraded Valve Springs
  • Halltech Killer Bee and Beehive Shroud with Vette Air Scoop
  • QM LS7 Ported Intake Manifold and Throttle Body
  • American Racing Header 1 7/8 with Hi-Flow Cats and X-pipe
  • Jet-Hot Coating of the Headers (Silver)
  • Custom made Fabricated Valve covers with Katech Coil Re-location kit and Red plug wires
  • Motorad 160 Degree Thermostat
  • Hinson Motorsports Aeromotive Red fuel rails with Stainless Steel braided lines and Red/Blue AN fittings and Fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail.
  • Moroso oil vapor catch can with Stainless Steel braided  lines and Red/Blue AN fittings
  • NGK TR6 Spark Plugs
  • Ram Dual Disc Clutch with Ceramic Disc
  • Harland Sharp Rocker Arm Modification
  • Ceramic Tunnel Plate
  • Differential and Transmission fluid were changed when this work was being done. Oil changes occur every 1000 miles with Mobil 1 Synthetic and Mobil 1 oil filter
  • Tremec T6060 transmission which came on line for the Z06 in 2008
  • Replaced the black under hood liner with a factory Z06 embossed liner
  • Raptor Shift Light (Blue)
  • DSW Vettes leather trim dash pieces around the radio/heater controls, shift boot, e-boot and e-boot handle, center console lid with Z06 embroidered on the center and the rear center console piece that sits behind the seat. All in real matching ebony leather with red stitching.
  • Z06 embroidered floor mats and rear cargo mat
  • RSD certified roll bar
  • Stock seat belts
  • MGW short throw shifter with gripper shift knob
  • Sunset Orange Creation Exhaust Commander. I will explain this in better detail here: I debated on removing the stock mufflers and adding a Corsa system. Many advised that a Corsa system would tend to drone inside the cockpit alot. The exhaust commander comes with a key fob and is also hardwired into the options buttom on the dash. This allow you to manually open the secondary exhaust butterflies at idle and to return them to the stock configuration which opens them at 3000 rpm. This allows the car to idle and hear the awesome sound of the cam yet return it to quiet when cruising at hgwy speeds or again keeping them open all the time to listen to the wonderful sound the engine makes at speed.
  • Michelin Pilot Sport tires in stock size. The only reason I replaced the stock tires was that the Michelin is far superior. Better grip, lighter and more importantly quieter.
  • The car was dyno tuned at Quality Motorsports. It made 509.04 on Horsepower and 476.31 on Torque at the rear wheels. 
  • The driveability of the car is fantastic. The clutch feel is exactly like stock with no shuddering. The cam is a very mild just a little above what the stock cam was. Quality Motorsports can comment on that. It is called their Steet Bully cam. No internal engine work was done. The heads were never removed everything else is stock. My idea was to bring up the horsepower without sacrificing driveability in anyway. Hence everything being done to support that. I have most of the receipts and the dyno graphs. The car has never been tracked or raced in any way. Looks fast and has the power to back it up but has never been raced. 
  • Any questions at all please email me.
  • The car is sold as is with no warranty and no returns. I assure you that the winner of the auction will not be disappointed.
  • I am asking that the winner of the auction deposit via PayPal $500.00 within 1 day of the auction ending with the balance being made via bank transfer.
  • Winner is responsible for pick-up and shipping arrangements if necessary. The vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.
  • The vehicle is for sale in the USA only. 
  • The reserve is set low given the amount of money and time that went into building this car.
  • The only reason for selling it at this time is an expanding family and the time it takes to manage that. Which leaves no time for the car. The mileage or lack thereof are a testiment to that.
  • Thank you.

GM might outsource vans to AM General

Thu, Nov 26 2015

General Motors will possibly boost production of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon at the Wentzville Assembly Plant in Missouri by contracting out some commercial van manufacturing to AM General. Demand for the two midsize trucks continues to boom, and GM would like to take advantage of the strong market for them. The possible deal came to light in a letter to workers at the factory, according to Automotive News. "This potential partnership would free up production capacity and allow the organization to capitalize on our ability to build midsize trucks to further satisfy customer demand," a portion of the document allegedly said. AM General would reportedly only take over assembly of the cutaway versions of the Chevy Express and GMC Savana. Customers and critics have quickly embraced the latest Colorado and Canyon since their introduction. The Chevy just won back-to-back Motor Trend Truck of the Year awards. GM also had to add a third shift and extra workers in 2014 just to keep up with demand. The Wentzville plant even increased employment on the weekends earlier in 2015 to assemble an extra 2,000 of the trucks each month. While the two pickups boom, deliveries for the Chevy Express and GMC Savana are down 26.9 percent and 26.6 percent respectively through the first 10 months of the year. GM doesn't break out numbers for the cutaway versions, but they make up about a third of production, according to Automotive News. AM General built the Humvee for the US military and does some contract work with automakers. For example, the company's Indiana factory now produces the Mercedes-Benz R-Class for export to China. Here's hoping this potential deal will help both GM and AM General keep their factories humming. Related Video:

2015 Chevrolet Trax

Thu, Dec 4 2014

After the obligatory product presentation for the 2015 Trax, I caught up with Steve Majoros, Chevrolet's director of marketing for crossovers and cars, and asked him to elaborate on which markets his planners believe will be the hot starters for this tiny CUV. Without much hesitation, Majoros began to click off traditional sales havens for Subaru, namely, New England and the snowy bits of the East Coast, Colorado and the Pacific Northwest. That news might not surprise you, but it did me. Perhaps it's something as basic as the Trax's tall-hatchback looks, or the emphasis Chevrolet put on the urban driving cycle during my test in San Diego. But before my chat with Majoros, I'd considered this a crossover pointed at the Millennial city mouse more than his bumpkin cousin. But a closer look had me re-examining the granola cred of Chevy's smallest crossover. Having spent my fair share of time in New England and around New Englanders, I started by mentally listing the Trax's Subaru-like traits: practicality, thrift, all-weather ability and, well, just a dash of ugliness. (I suppose a hatchback needn't always be ugly to sell in Maine, or Boulder or Portland... but a 'distinctive' face doesn't seem to hurt.) After a day of driving through sunny San Diego and its surroundings, I can say that Trax makes an interesting case for itself against the standard bearers of the L.L. Bean set, but I'm less sure of its argument for young urbanites. The Trax looks a lot like an Equinox whose suit shrunk in the wash. Chevy's has downsized its own, rather conservative crossover styling to fit the proportions of the subcompact Trax; to my eyes, it looks a lot like an Equinox whose suit shrunk in the wash. That's fine for offering a cohesive look for the Chevy family of crossovers, but it seems out of step with the rest of the segment. If the Trax's current competitive set were the cast of a high school-based TV show, the Kia Soul would play the lovable nerd, the Nissan Juke perhaps the outsider musician and the Subaru XV Crosstrek the athletic outdoorsy kid. Chevy may see the Trax as the hipster chick wearing intentionally ironic mom jeans, but to me the styling is a little too on the nose; more like an actual grownup trying to hang with the kids. These mom jeans are genuine. Per my earlier point, that quasi-conservative look may be just fast enough for staid New Englanders, but I have a hard time seeing the bluff, big-Bowtied front end playing in Bushwick or Wicker Park.
