2005 Chevy SSR--6.0L LS2 Corvette Motor--14,699 Miles--Power Hard Top Convertible--Garage Kept Covered--Original Owner--No Rain--Extras


This vehicle was my father's baby.  He was an elderly adult and drove this only when it was nice out, to and from dialysis three times a week for 7 years. It has been garage kept covered since purchasing it.  It has never been abused, driven hard and meticulously maintained.  It has been washed, waxed and cleaned so often, I'm surprised the paint wasn't washed off!  He was insistent on adding aftermarket options as this was his personality.  He hired a local painter (kolorcraftautobody.com) to apply a $2500 custom airbrush flame detail to the silver base paint.  I thought it would be a bit tacky (flames), but it came out better than I believed it ever would.  The paint, detail and clear coat is of the highest quality.  After that was a visit to the local flagship auto accessory installer here in Syracuse (teamiu.com).  Window tint, a remote start, Xenon headlights, undercarriage blue neons & red brake calipers were added.  I asked why he needed a remote start for a summer vehicle only driven in nice weather but if you knew the man, you'd understand why.  He was a bit of a showoff.  An order from California Car Cover for a custom 2 tone cover would complete his accessorizing.  He was a fanatic about this car.  There was a dress code just to get a ride in it.  Clean shoes, or even no shoes (leave them at the curb), clean clothes were a must.  If you were one of the lucky ones, he'd let you get behind the wheel with him riding shotgun for a trip around the block.  Like I said, if you knew the man, you'd understand.  He will be sorely missed.


So there it is.  This will be a 7 day auction with reserve.  The reserve is set at $27,500,  which I think is a steal for what you are getting.  The 2014 Kelly Blue Book on this vehicle, in the shape it's in is $30,500.  Last year, the 2013 KBB value was $28,500, so it has appreciated 2k and will continue to rise as this rare car was only produced for 3 model years, and the last year they wedged the LS2 Corvette motor in it and dropped the 350.  Of course they detuned the LS2 15 HP so it wouldn't steal Corvette sales, but it's held it's own value wise against the C6.   


Ask any questions you like.  I prefer the vehicle is picked up locally, but if I had certified funds cleared in my bank account, and a car carrier showed up, it could leave.  I would assume the potential buyer would like to see this car first hand.  You won't be disappointed.


Also, very important.  This vehicle is listed locally as well so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time if a local buyer steps up to the plate.

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown

Wed, Jan 29 2014

They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.

Camaro SS facelift and dune-riding the new Mercedes-Benz GLS | Autoblog Podcast #579

Fri, May 3 2019

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Reese Counts and Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale. First, they talk about the newly refreshed Chevy Camaro SS. Then they dish on the cars they've been driving, including the Lexus UX, Lexus GS F and Volvo V90, as well as riding in the new Mercedes-Benz GLS. After that, they ask the question, how many AMG cars is too many? Finally they turn to car buying, and suggest potential vehicles for a shopper on Reddit for the "Spend My Money" segment.

Seeing the Detroit Auto Show via drone

Sun, Jan 18 2015

Seeing the Chevrolet display at the Detroit Auto Show is worth doing this year, and not just because of the new Corvette Z06, Volt and Bolt concept. In order to attract the new kids, The Bowtie has gone what the old kids used to call "buck wild" with their show stand at Cobo Hall. A Corvette Z06, Trax, and Colorado are parked along a central aisle, called Mainstreet, at the end of which is a 20-foot-tall, 73-foot long transparent screen lording over the new Volt. Elsewhere are five more 20-foot-tall screens broadcasting nine stories today's Chevrolet wants to tell about its vehicles, from performance to belief in the power of play to its 4G LTE-equipped OnStar telematics service. Then there are the social media and virtual reality safety installations, the community presentations and more. Chevrolet flew a drone through the stand to show off what it's doing, which is has replaced eye-level video as the next best thing to being there. You can check it out in the video above.
