Chevrolet: Corvette on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
2005 C6 Z51 Coupe, with just over 53k miles. Im still driving this car off and on, but only to keep it in tip top condition for the next owner. It will be cleaned inside and out upon pick-up/delivery. Performance: Motor: LS2 6.0L(400hp stock), probably pushing around 450hp with the mods. It stays even with a 2005 Shelby GT500. It is equipped with the Z51 performance package that adds a stiffer suspension, performance tires, upgraded braking system, performance transmission gearing, and a transmission oil cooler! These upgrades make a significant difference in the driving experience over a base model Corvette. I put new ceramic brake pads on the front a couple thousands miles ago.Firestone tires: The fronts could probably go another 5 thousand miles, depending how you drive it. The rears have a couple thousand miles on them. I replaced them last year. The fronts cost around $125 each and the rears cost around $250 each, so a full set of firestones are around $1000.B&B bullet exhaust, pretty much the loudest but best sounding exhaust for this car on market. I do have the stock exhaust to throw in. Ram air with a K&N or similar filter. For those that are not familiar: ram air means that the faster you go, the more air you are sucking into the engine, so more available power on highways. Diablo Sport programmer, running premium octane diablo tune. The c6’s come stock with a fuel-saving feature that forces you to shift from 1st to 4th gear when driving normal. I installed a relay that disables this feature so you are free to shift into any gear, whenever you want. All recalls have been serviced. I havent touched the navigation software, mainly because I never use it for that purpose. Exterior/interior: 1SB interior package: touchscreen nav/cd unit(XM radio capable) BUT I do have an aux cord assembly hooked up to it so you can listen to your own music via a aux cord, drivers side memory package, head-up display(which is probably my favorite feature), home link transmitter, auto dimming mirrors with compass power telescopic steering column, heated driver and passenger seats.It has corvette logo carpet floor mats and trunk mat. The speakers are aftermarket, the brand is Hertz. I’d say they’re definitely comparable or better than Bose. plexiglass/tinted transparent roofGrey leather seats/ Silver exterior.Chrome corvette license plate frame for the rear. No license place on the front but I do have a detachable license plate bracket, that I never installed, I can throw in. Breathable car cover. Chrome front grill2 key Fobs (1 and 2) Keyless entryTinted windows, 35% in the front and 20% on the back. Wear and tear: It does have a 1 inch scratch on the right back panel, around a 2 inch scrape on the bottom of the driver-side door, and some type of mark in plastic on the middle console area, between the shifter, cupholders, and airbag light. The transparent sunroof does have stress marks in areas on it. And there are a few tiny nicks in the paint in the front of the car from normal highway use. Also, there are a few scratches on the front left headlight, from the previous owner. No idea how they got there but its never bothered me. Note: this is how the car always looks. I didnt clean it for these pictures, I just take care of my possessions. Its only been rained on three times in the last 7 years Ive owned it. Please contact me if you would like more pictures, or have any questions. Thanks for looking!

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 engine blows up at just 891 miles
Thu, Jan 1 2015You've waited and watched and waited some more for the arrival of your 650-horsepower, $78,000 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Finally, that joyous day arrives and you eagerly, but gingerly, begin to break-in the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 monster under your hood. Then 900-odd miles after delivery, your excitement grinds, quite literally, to a halt. That's what the owner of one 2015 Z06 claimed happened to him when a simple break-in drive resulted in a lunched engine. The owner, known as Lawdogg149 on Corvette Forum, says he was out breaking-in his car ahead of a January track event when it happened. "While making a pull from 35 miles per hour, I accelerated and shifted short of redline, and boom - the car began knocking. I pulled over and popped the hood. I could hear a loud knock coming from the No. 6 cylinder area along with a serious, grinding, metal-on-metal sound coming from the supercharger area," Lawdogg wrote. A subsequent trip to the dealer confirmed his concerns, with the service facility telling Lawdogg that the No. 6 valvetrain had failed. The dealer couldn't research the issue further, though, as General Motors requested the engine be returned for a more thorough evaluation. The good news for the Z06's unlucky owner, at least, is that GM will be covering the engine replacement under warranty, an expense that Corvette Forum estimates is a nearly $24,000 procedure. At this point, the two leading theories behind the engine's detonation involve a manufacturing defect – which could be why GM is so keen to tear the blown powerplant down – or a mistake on the part of Lawdogg. As Motor Authority points out, such an error could be something as simple as the Z06's owner accidentally shifting to first rather than third during his 35-mph pull. If, however, there's a deeper manufacturing problem with the Z06's engine, this might not be the only case we end up hearing about.
