Waterdown Ontario, Canada

Up for auction, is a 1987 Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe. I purchased this car three and a half years ago from Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord North Carolina. I purchased this car because as a 17 year old I bought an '87 Monte Carlo SS, and was attempting to re-live the past. Since I have owned it, I have put 500 miles on the car, hence the auction. This car has 15,000 original miles and appears to be 100% original down to the spark plugs. It runs and drives excellent and all options are in perfect working order, including the ice cold air conditioning. The only additions to the car were on it when I purchased it, which include an alarm system with remote keyless entry and Flowmaster mufflers. The tone is a few decibels above stock, not very loud at all. It has never seen winter, snow, salt, much less rain. I have not washed the car with water since owning it. There is NO rust on this car. Paint condition is 9.5 out of 10, I took 0.5 off because it could use polishing. Interior condition 9.5 out of 10, I took 0.5 off because there is a foot mark on the driver side carpet beside the gas pedal. Engine compartment is 10 out of 10 completely original. Undercarriage is 9 out of 10, as it has 15,000 miles on it. This car will not disappoint, as it is essentially a brand new car. IT NEEDS NOTHING. This car was purchased brand new at Dale Earnhardt Chev Olds and was in Alabama, Florida, Virginia and ended up in North Carolina where I bought it. This is 1 of 6052 produced in 1987 for Nascar rules, they did not produce this car in 1988 which was the final year for the G body. I will answer all questions to the best of my ability. I will send specific pictures if required, by email or text. The car is appraised currently at $23,000 Cdn. It is insured for that amount at $240/year through Hagerty Insurance. You are welcome to come and inspect the car personally or call anytime. Mike 905 690 4820. I am always available, so shipping, pick up, trailering, transport will not be an issue. Buyer is responsible for ALL shipping.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
