A great driver, this C5 is cosmetically stock, the only performance enhancements made being to improve its use as a road car: - Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires with less than 1000 miles; front and rear alignment performed during tire installation - 180°F thermostat with the fans start and shut off temps reset to match the lower operating temperature - Throttle body hot water heat circuit bypassed and auxiliary (front) hood seal installed, both for improved air flow and cooling capability - New +4Bosch Platinum Spark Plugs and MSD Plug Wires installed - Torque converter lockup speed reset to 60 mph from the stock 35-40 mph resulting in way better in town performance and no engine lugging in 4th gear - Cooling system, transmission, rear axle and brake systems flushed and refilled with the correct OEM fluids +/- October 2014. Engine oil (synthetic) and filter annually - Cat back exhaust upgraded with MagnaFlow forward mufflers and X pipe leading into an OEM Z06 titanium muffler set yielding a quiet but powerful note (with no baffle rattles) - Steering lock and turn signal circuit issues fully resolved (a common C5 problem) - New battery June 2016 A note on the wheels: they are OEM polished aluminum (not the cheap chrome after market style) and were restored by being tank striped, polished then clear powder coated A close look at the car's front (see applicable pix) will show some parking bumper originated scratches to the underside of the nose most likely by the first owner (couldn't have been me)...otherwise the overall finish is nearly blemish free. The only remaining issues are an occasionally malfunctioning hazard warning switch and the key fobs, neither of which have I been able to operate on a regular basis (replaced the batteries twice to no avail). The owners manual talks of the system "forgetting" the access codes if the fob is not used within 10 days of its last access. I just use the key.... The car has had only professionally performed maintenance while in my care and lives full time in a closed garage. Owners manual is included. I will try to answer any questions asked through the ebay mail address. If you would like to have an inspection done before purchase, I have successfully used CarCHex in the past as an example. I have used a great shipping broker (she's handled both this car and the Corvette I owned previously): Athena's Auto Movers (954-892-6905) Thanks for looking and good luck bidding: please note the RESERVE PRICE is lower than the BUY IT NOW
