Chevrolet Corvette Coupe on 2040-cars
Menahga, Minnesota, United States
I purchased this Corvette from a Washington state Honda dealer last year. The dealer installed new brakes and the new tires when I bought it last fall and they have no more than 200 miles on them right now. Reason is it snowed right after it was delivered and I put it in storage. Got it back out now that warmer weather has arrived. It's very clean and runs perfect. All adjustments on both Sport Seats work fine as does the cruise control, the cassette player, etc... Mileage will go up a little as I will drive it occasionally weather permitting. I've decided to get something a little easier to get in and out of. I'm a senior and should have recalled this from my '86 Corvette I had 15 years ago. There are a few minor paint blemishes. Small paint chips in the front from sand/rocks. The top of the front urethane bumper was repainted before I got it because of the clear coat separating. This is a common problem. They did not completely remove the old clear coat on the top of the bumper and if you look closely you can see it, but if you're a few feet away you won't. The paint match was good though. Some light clear coat bubbling on the edge of the Targa top. Some minor color wear on the drivers seat bolster, which can be seen in the pic's. New headliner installed due to the original sagging a bit. New sun visors with the lighted vanity mirrors also. Interior is very nice. The day I took it in to have it checked out thoroughly, the alternator started making noise. New alternator and battery installed along with all new Kicker speakers for the stereo. Stereo sounds good. It is the factory stereo with cassette. All gauges work fine too. New remote entry key fob. Corvette has the passive entry system where the car unlocks when you get close to it with the fob. It can also be disabled to use the key fob button for the doors. Clean engine compartment as you can see in the pic's. Some of these pictures were from the dealer I bought it from. This is a very nice running and looking stock Corvette you will be proud to own and the lowest priced 6-speed you will find in nice condition. Check my feedback, as I give an honest appraisal of anything I sell and welcome calls or emails for further questions. 651.470.6621, Brad. Thanks for looking. .

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
