Vehicle Detail
2000 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE LOW 32,935 original miles I am the original owner of this beautiful car. It has been meticulously cared for and has only been driven on weekends. Always stored and covered in garage. All maintenance and synthetic oil changes throughout its life. I am an adult driver non-smoker, car is in a perfect condition, no dents, no damage other than minor rock/paint chips on front. Car looks and runs as good as it was new. Entire car and engine compartment are so clean you can eat off it. I made minor enhancements to wheels, tires, brakes, but never any "warranty voiding" modifications. I'm selling car to make room for a motorcycle (on order) --this car has been "my baby" lovingly cared for since I ordered it custom from the dealer in 2000. Kelley Blue Book Value $23,805 before any of the enhancements/upgrades. My investment in this car is over $70K Below I will list all the standard equipment and then the modifications/after market items installed. I have approximately 15k in upgrades that were done through the years. Standard Equipment: - Memory package (for radio, HVAC controls, mirrors, and driver's seat) - Twilight sentinel (automatic headlamps) - Head's Up Display - Dual Power Sport Seats - Dual electronic/automatic 2-zone A/C - Active handling system - Power telescoping steering wheel - Fog Lamps - Bose premium surround system with 12 disk c/d changer (trunk mounted) upgraded to OEM AM/FM/CD in dash (so 13 disc total) - Power windows, locks, truck release - Theft deterrent system, remote door/truck lock (upgraded to automatic window up/down with remote) - Floor mats - Rare Millennium Yellow color - Limited slip differential - Extended Mobility Goodyear Tires - Tire Pressure monitoring system - Power heated outside mirrors - Cruise control - Intermittent speed-sensitive wipers - Leather seats with neoprene "wet suit" covers (very grippy and soft) Enhancements / Upgrades Installed: - Breathless Vortex ram-air cold air intake system with Power Duct (+20 horsepower) - Enhanced air-fuel regulator (MAF) (+10 horsepower) - Tom Bryne Powerload II custom programmed engine tuning and transmission (incredible fast and smooth transmission shifts and 25+ horsepower on standard fuel) - Corsa Indy Pacecar dual exhaust (+15 horsepower) - Bassani X-pipe (replaced inefficient stock H pipe, more power, better exhaust sound) - Z06 style high-polished wheels (18" rear, 17" front) - Z51 sway-bar kit - Baer Eradispeed plus II drilled and slotted performance rotors "Big Brake Kit" - Polished Lug locks - Optima Yellow-Top battery - Red powder coated "Corvette" front/rear calipers - Hawk ceramic brake pads - Yellow glossy under-hood fuel rail covers with corvette lettering - Black Corvette lettering for front and rear bumpers - Polished flag inserts/logos in interior - Mirrored inside truck hatch/lid - Sylvania super-bright head light bulbs, including kit for high and low beams on simultaneously - GM OEM European tail lights (orange turn signals inside red tail lights) - GM Z06 front air duct screens - Automatic window up/down (driver and passenger) including remote controlled up/down ยท Homelink 3-button programmable remote garage/gate opener--integrated into custom driver's side sun visor Car has been shown at various car shows/events in East Coast years ago--a true head turner with just enough custom looks and enhancements to make it more useable, more fun, and more attractive. It was already fast with 345-horsepower stock V8 engine. Now running around 400 horsepower (was dyno'd 6 years ago) and sounds smoother than ever. Only sounds "aggressive" when it is supposed to--when you step on it. Clear title, clear Carfax, recently inspected (all passing scores), always synthetic oil used, recent oil/filter/lube and transmission service. Carmax evaluator just inspected last week "Very Well Maintained, wish I could but this car myself--car is in showroom condition", Carmax just doesn't sell cars over 10 years old.

On Jun-02-11 at 13:37:19 PDT, seller added the following information: UPDATE: I've been asked a few questions by bidders so I thought I'd share the answers with everyone: 1) What color is the convertible top and what condition is it in? A: The convertible soft top is black in color and is in perfect condition, no tears, clear/clear glass rear window 2) What is the condition of the tires?A: Tire are Goodyear run-flat tires with at least 70% of tread/life still remaining--they look, ride like new. 3) More specifics on any normal rock/paint chips?A: I went back over the entire car and found only two small "bread crumb" size paint chips from normal driving/rocks. One is dead center on the car on the front license plate cover and another just above that on the front of the hood. Both are about 1/4 the size of a dime and you can't see them without looking for them. There is no other issues found, no door dings found, paint shines very bright/always waxed. 4) Does the A/C work? Any switches or features that do not work?A: Everything works as new. No broken switches, features, A/C works great, all lights work, everything works. This is my "cherished" car, if anything were wrong, I would have fixed it (but I cannot remember every having any problems, car only has 32K miles on it! ) 5) Any wear showing on the leather seats?A: I put neoprene (waterproof/soft) seat covers on the car just a couple of weeks after purchasing so the leather is in great condition--it hasn't seen sunlight so NO dry out/cracking.
