This car is a clean salvage title. And it does have a share of issues (but also very good points), however, let me explain the new pieces and history of it. This car is drive ready (given, it is rough. Please read below for information).
I strongly believe this car is worth fixing and driving. Before this small issue, I loved driving it and getting compliments on it being my car (I'm a student just out of HS). The car has many brand new parts on it (I never do used performance parts). Most of the new parts of for performance. I never got around to doing body work. Battery and alternators are GOOD (12.4V and 13.9V will running). CCA and CA of both show good during testing. The check engine light is on. I have an OBDII scanner and will show you what the codes mean. NEW PARTS - Power Steering Rack - Inner Tie Rods - Rack and Pinion - EGR valve - BRAND NEW A/C Control Head (cold A/C and heater work) - Brand new ignition switch (I never put the ignition cover back on). - Air filter - Spark plugs and wires - Fuel Filter (changed at 174,000 ODO) - Oil Filter (changed at 174,000 ODO) - New Oil Dipstick (inaccurate reading. cosmetic) - New Rear Brake pads (NEVER GOT TO CHANGING FRONT. WILL GIVE FREE FRONT PADS) - New Passenger side mirror - Seat covers for cosmetic - Has an AMP and subs in back. Not hooked up - NEW Front windshield - BRAND NEW tires (currently have 400 MILES on them) - New PCV valves USED PARTS - Engine upper intake plenum (installed by professional mechanic) There are problems with the car, as I said. I'm not sure what is 100% wrong. I no longer want to continue fixing things on this car (I am a student and cannot afford to continue tuning it. I have two little girls [sisters] that need safety to and from school). I will be getting a new car. KNOWN ISSUES - Engine code (P0300) - Rough acceleration - Exhaust vibrates ONLY AT IDLE - VERY ROUGH IDLE - Squeeking when accelerating (only on initial). Car will run fine once it gets above 30 MPH I suspect a sensor is bad. Changing them out should improve performance. Because of the issues, I suspect the TPS (throttle position sensor) or camshaft sensor. TPS is $30 at O'Reillys. Worth a swap. However, I recommend getting it professionally diagnosed at most repair shops for free. (Free diagnostics at most local shops). Gas treatment is also recommended and might clean up acceleration. I only put 93 OCTANE (premium) fuel in it. I have a log book of everything that has been done to the car. Will be given if purchased or viewed. Please text me at the contact number for any more details. I know everything about this car and will be happy to inform you of them. |

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
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.
Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
