2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

2008 Chevrolet Corvette ZO6

I am the 1 owner of this 2008 Chevrolet Z06 Corvette 1LZ. The exterior color is Black with Ebony leather interior. This Chevrolet Corvette is powered by the 7.0L / V8 engine, has a 6 speed manual transmission with 3594 miles and many very high quality upgrades.

All options are in working order which include power driver seat, power passenger seat, memory seats, push button start, Bose audio system, bluetooth, onstar, key-less remote entry, cruise control, tilt, heads up display, satellite radio, home-link, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, run flat tires, 18 inch front & 19 inch rear wheels in Anthrocite with matching Michelin Pilot Sport tires, 1 factory key / 1 remote, original owners manual, and floor mats. Now for the important things.

All upgrades were performed when the car was broken in at 1000 miles in March of 2009. Most all of the miles on the car were put on it while I lived in Dallas. I recently moved to Virginia and had the car brought here in an enclosed trailor. There are NO stone chips on the front of this car or the mirrors. A Colgan car bra and mirror socks were used anytime the car was on the highway for a trip. The paint and interior are pristine with NO dings, chips or any damage whatsoever.

$15000 in additional Hi-Performance and other upgrades:

Quality Motorsports QM550 Package
QM 550 Camshaft and Upgraded Valve Springs

Raptor Shift Light (Blue)
DSW Vettes leather trim dash pieces around the radio/heater controls, shift boot, e-boot and e-boot handle, center console lid with Z06 embroidered on the center and the rear center console piece that sits behind the seat. All in real matching ebony leather with red stitching.
Z06 embroidered floor mats and rear cargo mat
RSD certified roll bar
Stock seat belts
MGW short throw shifter with gripper shift knob
Sunset Orange Creation Exhaust Commander. I will explain this in better detail here: I debated on removing the stock mufflers and adding a Corsa system. Many advised that a Corsa system would tend to drone inside the cockpit alot. The exhaust commander comes with a key fob and is also hardwired into the options buttom on the dash. This allow you to manually open the secondary exhaust butterflies at idle and to return them to the stock configuration which opens them at 3000 rpm. This allows the car to idle and hear the awesome sound of the cam yet return it to quiet when cruising at hgwy speeds or again keeping them open all the time to listen to the wonderful sound the engine makes at speed.
Michelin Pilot Sport tires in stock size. The only reason I replaced the stock tires was that the Michelin is far superior. Better grip, lighter and more importantly quieter.
The car was dyno tuned at Quality Motorsports. It made 509.04 on Horsepower and 476.31 on Torque at the rear wheels.
The driveability of the car is fantastic. The clutch feel is exactly like stock with no shuddering. The cam is a very mild just a little above what the stock cam was. Quality Motorsports can comment on that. It is called their Steet Bully cam. No internal engine work was done. The heads were never removed everything else is stock. My idea was to bring up the horsepower without sacrificing driveability in anyway. Hence everything being done to support that. I have most of the receipts and the dyno graphs. The car has never been tracked or raced in any way. Looks fast and has the power to back it up but has never been raced.
Any questions at all please email me.
The car is sold as is with no warranty and no returns. I assure you that the winner of the auction will not be disappointed.
I am asking that the winner of the auction deposit via PayPal $500.00 within 1 day of the auction ending with the balance being made via bank transfer.
Winner is responsible for pick-up and shipping arrangements if necessary. The vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.
The vehicle is for sale in the USA only.
The reserve is set low given the amount of money and time that went into building this car.
The only reason for selling it at this time is an expanding family and the time it takes to manage that. Which leaves no time for the car. The mileage or lack thereof are a testiment to that.
Thank you.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.
