What you are viewing is a future collector car. This car has super low miles (8200) which was the reason we bought it. The owner was local and we pounced on it when we saw it. Our plan was to baby it, take it on a few long trips and enjoy it, but our plans have changed and it is time for someone else to enjoy it. Our reserve is very reasonable for an all original C-5 with this few of miles. Since we purchased this beautiful Speedway White time capsule of a car, I have replaced the battery, changed the oil with Mobile One, and had professionally installed a 3M invisible shield for the front to avoid those nasty bugs and stone chips. It was too perfect to have survived for 15 years to be ruined. I figured if I could save it for $500; it was money well spent. It spends most of its days hanging out in our heated insulated barn where it is covered and on the battery maintainer. We only drive it on sunny days on main roads and we never leave the car unattended. So far, this summer, we have put about 50 miles on it. I have never washed the car with water and the previous owner stated it had never been in the rain. It is never left outside at night. The only problems that I see with the car is that the passenger door won’t unlock with the remote or the switch, we just reach across and unlock it. I suspect it is the module? $65 to repair it? There are two small scratches, one about three inches behind the gas door and another just above the right rear side marker light. The seals and door gaskets are in excellent shape. The engine runs smooth with no smoke or strange noises. We debated about adding louder exhaust but decided to keep it stock. All the lights operate as they should, the headlight doors open perfectly with no noises. The interior looks and smells like new. As you can see from the photos, I have the original owner’s manual, two key fobs, and an unopened video tape. The seats look fantastic and they are really much more comfortable than I imagined. One thing about the car that we really enjoy is the HEADS UP DISPLAY. Why doesn’t every car have this? We have only had the top off once, for a road trip. The other time I had it off for a parade. Personally, we would rather have the top on with the A/C on full blast. Super cold. This is a great opportunity to own a super car for less than half the price of a new mustang. The engine and transmission combination is perfect and powerful. This is a reliable car that you could load up and take off on a long trip. It runs great and starts perfectly. We hate to see it go, but we cannot keep them all. Right now we get our insurance from the Corvette Museum and it costs about $500 a year with guaranteed value. We live in Michigan, so we have to pay the ridiculous catastrophic claims fee which is almost half the premium. Thanks for checking out our beautiful C-5.

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan
Mon, 11 Feb 2013Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."
Editors' Picks August 2021 | Honda Civic, Mercedes S-Class and more
Thu, Sep 9 2021This month of Editors' Picks saw us award the honor to a couple of redesigned stalwarts like the Honda Civic and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Plus, a new crossover that splits the difference between the compact and subcompact class takes home the prize. On top of this, we'll introduce you to a new term: midcompact. We'll be using this to describe those in-between crossovers that are a tad too small to be considered compact, but too large to neatly fit into the subcompact class. For a few examples of these "midcompact" cars, we'll point you to the Ford Bronco Sport, Kia Seltos and VW Seltos. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in August that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Genesis G70 2022 Genesis G70 View 26 Photos Quick take: Genesis hits all the right buttons with its G70. It's attractive, fun to drive and can be had for a fair price. Enthusiasts should give it a shot before taking home one of its German competitors. Score: 8 What it competes with: Alfa Romeo Giulia, Lexus IS, Acura TLX, Infiniti Q50, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Cadillac CT4, Volvo S60 Pros: Sharp handler, stunning exterior looks, strong engines Cons: Average interior, loses manual option, small backseat and trunk From the editors: News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "I was already a big fan of the Genesis G70. It has brilliant handling, and the twin-turbo V6 is a beast. It's even a bargain against the competition. And Genesis just made it look a lot better. I wish they'd done a bit more to update the interior, but it's still not a bad cabin. Besides, you won't think too much about it when you're hustling down a fun back road." Features Editor James Riswick — "Yes, it is small, but in a sport sedan segment where "sport" means increasingly less, the G70 still delivers (in part because of that smallness).
