The cover article in the November 2006 Vette Magazine about this car was entitled “Overkill” and the headline questioned, “Could J.R. Granatelli’s twin turbo terror be the most powerful C5 on the road?” I am pleased to present that very potent 972 HP 2004 Corvette Z06. This is a 1 of 1. This car was modified by Granatelli Motorsports and owner Joe Granatelli who is the nephew of motorsports legend Andy Grantelli. The car only has 7000 +/- miles on it and the VIN # is 1G1YY12S445108803. The color of the car has obviously been changed to a dark custom black cherry (formerly yellow as seen in the magazine articles). . The Z06 is a great car, but Granatelli Motorsports turned this Z06 into an AMAZING car. Highlights of the car include: – Granatelli Twin Turbo kit featuring two Turbonetics 76mm ball bearing turbochargers producing 972 RWHP and 1057 lb./ft. at 12 psi (max boost) – Engine bored and stroked to a 427 – LS6 block with Darton sleeves – Lunati forged crank/rods and Ross forged pistons – 8.8:1 compression ratio – TTI intercooler – Granatelli exhaust with Corsa mufflers – Granatelli Motorsports LS2 mass air sensor – Granatelli 0 ohm plug wires – FAST intake manifold – Carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber door sill inserts – Exedy carbon fiber clutch – Twin Bosch 930 high pressure turbo fuel pumps manage the fuel system and sub-system (extra 5 gallon fuel cell) – G-force T-56 6 speed transmission – May 2015 – added new premium ceramic front brake pads – Adjustable wastegate and in-dash boost controller to go from mild to wild – EFI Live mapping software to mazimize the fuel/air/spark mixture – Baer Extreme-Plus 6R 6 piston brakes – Classic Design Concepts Tiger Shark front and rear fascias – RKSport carbon fiber hood – Catz HID conversion – HRE Granatelli Signature Series 19? wheels – Stock 3:31 gears with Mark Williams halfshafts – Michelin Pilot Sport tires – -275/40ZR-19 Front, 345/35ZR-19 rear – Weight 3125 purchased this vehicle for $60,000 in 2004 and invested another $125,000 (his cost) in time – 9.76 at 154 MPH – Runs on pump gas – achieves approx. 20mpg during normal driving conditions – has a 9 gallon fuel tank and a 3 gallon auxilliary fuel tank in front

New auto loans could soon extend out to 84 months

Sun, Apr 22 2018

Cars and trucks are more expensive than ever before. In order to boost sales and help consumers afford new vehicles, automakers are offering longer and longer terms for auto loans. This past week, Bloomberg reported that FCA's Ram Trucks division is currently offering the longest loans. Some stretch to 73 months. Jeep, Fiat and Chevy aren't far behind. More noteworthy is that we'll likely soon see lenders moving from 73-month to 84-month loans. That's seven years worth of interest. More than two-thirds of US auto sales come from light trucks like the Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado and Ram 1500. The average transaction price of a new vehicle is well over $30,000. It's not difficult to spec out a heavily-optioned truck up to $60,000. Vehicles depreciate from the moment they roll off a dealer lot, and these six or seven-year loans could hurt consumers and lenders both in the long run. The U.S. Senate voted last week to kill rules that would prevent discriminatory auto lending. These Obama-era guidelines were meant to curtail lenders who offered higher loans based on race, religion, sex or national origin.

Made in America | These cars top the most-American list

Mon, Dec 5 2022

The car with the most American/Canadian content for 2022 is ... cue the drumroll ... the Lincoln Corsair, in both standard gasoline-fueled and plug-in hybrid guise. Both versions of Lincoln's compact luxury crossover earned a score of 86 — due to 72% of its parts coming from one of the two aforementioned countries Â— in the American University Kogod Business School's annual "Made in America Auto Index." Last year's leader, the 2021 Ford Mustang GT (when equipped with a manual transmission) fell all the way to 22nd place with a 50% rating due to a switch in transmissions sourced from Mexico. In case you're interested, that puts Ford's red-blooded American ponycar below vehicles like the Kia Sorento, Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class SUV and Lexus ES. If you're wondering how an American car that's assembled within the borders of the United States could rank below a model from a Korean, German or Japanese automaker, well, we'll let Kogod explain: "The components of the index are based on research performed by the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor Michigan regarding the economic value of different components of auto manufacturing. For example, the highest ranked cars are made by U.S.-based manufacturers using American engines and transmissions, and with a high AALA percentage of U.S. and Canadian parts." There are 25 total vehicles listed in the Top 10 (there are lots of ties this year). Here's the full list: (1) Lincoln Corsair: 86 (1) Lincoln Corsair PHEV: 86 (2) Tesla Model 3 Long Range: 82.5 (3) Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray: 81 (4) Chevrolet Colorado: 80.5 (5) Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4x4: 80 (5) Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk: 80 (5) Tesla Model 3 Performance: 80 (5) Tesla Model Y: 80 (6) Dodge Durango Citadel: 79.5 (6) Dodge Durango Blacktop AWD: 79.5 (7) Honda Passport Trailsport: 78.5 (8) Ford F-150 2.7L, 3.3L, 5.0L: 77.5 (8) Ford Ranger: 77.5 (8) Ford Bronco automatic: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model S: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model X: 77.5 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 3.6L: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee L LTD: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6L: 77 (9) Chevrolet Camaro automatic: 77 (10) Honda Odyssey: 76 (10) Honda Ridgeline: 76 (10) Honda Pilot: 76 There's a whole long list of reasons for the above scores, with seven criteria that include factory location, headquarters location and where its various bits and pieces come from.

Chevy: The Big Game

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad
