Help with Corvette purchase decision
Found this black 2010, I'm not sure about the red GS stripes though. If the dealer is willing to make a deal, might go try this. http://www.billjacobsjoliet.com/vehicle-details/2010-chevrolet-corvette-grandsport-joliet-il-id-837182

Yeah, I dig the gunmetal a little more than the chrome too. I can always get some gunmetal later - not a deal killer.

Help with Corvette purchase decision
You are correct, there are some deals out there. Rick Conti has a Grand Sport in supersonic blue that I am little more excited about. http://www.ganleyaurora.com/new-inventory/1G1YR2DW3B5101339 There is also a cyber gray Grand Sport in New Hampsire. http://www.macmulkin.net/VehicleDetails/new-2011-Chevrolet-Corvette-Coupe_Grand_Sport_2LT-Nashua-NH/828514373 I'm not opposed to having the car shipped to me in Chicago, I've done it before. I'm more concerned about the mechanical options than the color, just not sure about this inferno orange. I will say that it looks a whole lot better in those daylight pictures that were posted.

Help with Corvette purchase decision
So I sold my black corvette this week, I decided I wanted a new Grand Sport Corvette. I know that I want it to be a Grand Sport with manual transmission and dual-mode exhasut, I'm open to most colors with the exception of yellow, and my wife ruled out white. I found one at a local dealership that has everything I want at a good price, but the color is inferno orange metallic. I guess I'm neutral to the color - what do you guys think? http://www.mikeandersonchevy.net/VehicleDetails/new-2011-Chevrolet-Corvette-Coupe_Grand_Sport_2LT-Merrillville-IN/1136196743

Most biased vette review ever?
the z06 could probably benefit from a upgraded clutch master cylinder - factory hydraulics are not the vette's best feature.

Just makes me sick: Corvettes have been equipped with launch control for a few years I believe

Lowering the Corvette's Demographic
It is cheaper for me to insure a '99 vette than a '99 Camaro Z28.

For the pushrod hater crowd: I bet that just chaps your ass to see corvettes in the lead at Le Mans.

Looking for some help with Ford service/maintenance history
Yeah, that's the trick - I was looking for a friend, as opposed to a service writer/rapist.

Looking for some help with Ford service/maintenance history
Does anybody have connections or know someone that can look up the service history on an '02 Ford Explorer? I just bought this truck and the rear liftgate needs some attention. I have heard a rumor that there may be a relevant recall, but I'm not sure how to find out. I would like to be educated before I go into a dealership. I'm also curious about the maintenance history of the vehicle.

Comments like this lead me to believe that you don't have a clue what you're talking about.

Zoom?
Probably a moot point at this point, but worth sharing. RX-8 rotary engines make like no torque, it was so bad that Mazda had to give away free maintenance because the engines didn't make the power they were rated at. Just FYI.

Good article, I have nothing further to add in regards to video advertising. GM's print media could use a little more of this:

Chrysler ad was definitely the best (and longest); I hope the car can live up to the commercial

2011 Super Bowl Ads
As I was watching that ad I was thinking they doors were going to open remotely. Remote start is not exactly what I would call "ahead of the curve" at this point
