Chevrolet: Corvette 3lt on 2040-cars
Berkeley, California, United States
2014 3LT Z51 - Stingray Supercharged This car is awesome/extremely fast and Im only selling because Im buying a new house. Its time to free up some cash flow. Everything is stock on the car, with the exception of the engine. The engine work was completed by Cunningham Motorsports in Murrieta. These guys are known for making Vettes go really fast! This car is full of options. It has everything the 3LT Z51 has plus the following:- Carbon Fiber interior package- HUD- Chrome aluminum wheels (19 front, 20 rear)- Magnetic ride control- 6 speed auto with paddle shifts- Exhaust, multi mode- Red calipers Window sticker was $73,925.00 Engine Mods:A&A Supercharger system, with intercooler Cunningham custom ground camMethanol injectionLMR catch canCustom tune on 91 octane*Best pull was 670 rwhp on their dyno (sheet attached) The car runs and drives stock until you romp on the throttle. The only giveaway is the lopey cam idle. And of course the loud blow off when you let off :). This car gets ridiculously great fuel mileage too, as a bonus. If youve been wanting to buy a Stingray and soup it up, save yourself some money and buy this one. This beast has never been on a track, but the guys at Cunningham were running the exact same set up on their shop car at one time and ran a 10.3 quarter mile on drag radials. So theres plenty of power on tap to break some hearts. The warranty is still there, but I dont know what kind of luck youll have if you take it to the dealership?? They might warranty everything except the drivetrain, but I cant guarantee that... I requested that the car remain California Smog Legal when we started the mods, so Im assuming itll pass Ca emissions. I cant guarantee that itll pass, since I havent had it checked. But even the air filter is in the air box still. No changes were made to the exhaust either. She still smells new and is very clean.

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine
Tue, Oct 28 2014As 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.
GM veteran Bryan Nesbitt tapped to head Buick design
Sat, Jun 6 2015General Motors styling veteran Bryan Nesbitt (pictured above) took over a new role on Monday as executive director of global Buick design and global architectures. Andrew Smith, who previously did that job and also coordinated the look for Cadillac, has remained in charge of the pen at Caddy with this shift. Nesbitt rose to prominence when he designed the Chrysler PT Cruiser, according to Automotive News. He joined GM in 2001 and has been there ever since in multiple high-level roles. In 2007, he was appointed vice president of design for North America and was later briefly general manager of Cadillac in 2009-2010. Nesbitt took over as the vice president of GM's international operations design in China in 2011. This shuffle also moves Ken Parkinson, currently styling boss for Chevrolet trucks, to China as design vice president there. In addition, John Cafaro becomes the person in charge of the look for Chevy globally, rather than previously splitting that role between cars and trucks with Parkinson. GM Global Design Leadership Changes – effective June 1, 2015. Bryan Nesbitt, Design Vice President, GM China will repatriate to North America and assume the position of Executive Director, Global Buick and Global Architectures. He will be located in Warren, MI. Bryan will be the design Champion for Buick in the US and China. Ken Parkinson, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Trucks and Global Architecture will assume the position of Design Vice President, GM China. He will be based in Shanghai, China. Andrew Smith, Executive Director, Global Cadillac and Buick Design will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Cadillac. He will continue to be the design Champion for the Cadillac brand. In addition, he will continue to lead the Global Color & Trim team. He will be based in Warren, Michigan. John Cafaro, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Cars will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Chevrolet. He will be the design Champion for Chevrolet. In addition, John will lead the exterior components and accessories team. He will continue to be based in Warren, MI. The roles and responsibilities of Helen Emsley, Mark Adams, Carlos Barba, Clay Dean, Michael Simcoe, and Teckla Rhoades remain the same.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet'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.
