The fastest AND best handling Corvette money could buy from General Motors in 1996. I can only assume money was no issue when this car was ordered. This Corvette has the best of both worlds. Making it very versatile, more so than I thought when I purchased it some time back. The car has been out of the elements for the majority of its life. It has been adult driven, no cut wires from aftermarket stereos or hidden damage from excessively large wheels. The car does have 129,xxx miles on it, but do not let that scare you. It isn't an abused Corvette on its last leg. I have seen many Corvettes with less than 80,000 miles on them that would not compare to this car. What I was explaining about the way the car was factory ordered was that it has all of the high performance options including: the LT4 (with higher horse power than even the LS1), heavy duty 6 speed, heavier duty differential, adjustable ride control, and heavy duty cooling. But on the flip side the car was also ordered with every creature comfort including: power windows, power locks, dual power seats (many corvettes are ordered with just a power driver seat), digital air conditioning display, Bose Gold stereo with cassette and CD, Factory UV resistant glass which is very rare and greatly helps preserve the interior. This car gives you the best of both worlds in another way as well, while it is a high performance vehicle no doubt, it averages 27mpg on the interstate. I know some people say that and mean if you do 60mph with the windows up and air conditioning off, but  this car actually gets 27mpg at interstate speeds with the air conditioning blowing ice cold and radio playing away. I hope the next owner enjoys this car as much as I have, if you have any questions please ask. Thank you for your time, 

I will add more pictures soon, if there is anything specific you would like photos of please let me know.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
