2012 - Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
North Augusta, South Carolina, United States
This car is a stock 2012 Z06 (3LZ) with the Z07 package. It also has the Carbon Fiber package which includes carbon fiber splitter and side skirts, carbon fiber roof, and carbon fiber hood. It also has the track package and adjustable suspension. The carbon ceramic brakes are some of the best made. It will stop on a dime, almost literally. It is about as fully loaded as you can buy. The original MSRP was over $100k. This is not just any corvette, but if you are looking at it then you probably already know that. This car is absolutely beautiful inside and out. It is a blast to drive and does not compare to anything else. Everything mechanical on the car is in excellent condition. The clutch and transmission are easily the best I have ever driven. The car is in excellent condition on the inside. The paint is in good condition. There are a few rock chips on the car, but that is to be expected with the mileage. The rear tires are new 345/25/20 Nitto Invo's. The front tires are 285/30/19 Michelin Pilot Sport Cup's. The tread on the rears is better than the front because they are newer, but both have plenty left. The car has never been tracked or raced. Garage kept. I am the second owner of the car and I bought it with 29k miles. The current mileage is a result of several 500+ mile trips to Alabama. I did not buy the car to let it sit in the garage. The driver side seat belt tensioner was replaced under warranty. The oil has been changed 3 times since I have owned it. Other than that, I have just washed it and cleaned the interior regularly. I am selling it because that is what I do. I buy a car and drive it for a little while then sell it and move on to something else. I think I am trying to own every sports car there is and I am well on my way!

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
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.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
