Don't know if this has been posted anywhere yet but... ME LIKEY... Corvette Stingray Concept: Sideswipe In Disguise

Yes. Mine scraped so often the passenger's side piece (it is actually 3 pieces, one on each side and one in the middle) finally gave up and fell off. ;shrug And...welcome aboard! :w

Might be nowdays - my local dealership has brand new 2009s, never been driven, for $40,000 (and I bet they'd take less). :chuckle

Thanks Junkie - that's the major reason I haven't taken it in to diagnose the problem, I'm putting new wheels on before I drive it 14 miles down the freeway to the dealer! :eek

That was MY thought - I've done a visual inspection and I can't see anything hanging/loose/rubbing around the axle but I don't know what the tire pressure sensor looks like from this viewpoint. I think we just need to get it up on a lift since neither of us can fit under it even when it's on...

Thanks c4c5 - the car is my daily driver so it had not been sitting for any length of time other than overnight I meant to say it was only driven about 8 miles a day to work and back, Mon-Fri. Since it's an automatic I don't really want to try putting it in neutral doing 30 mph...and of course...

A few threads back I posed a question about my '98 convertible (automatic), but I'm starting to get worried that I will never drive my poor baby again. Here's the problem: a few months ago the car started developing a brake shudder; since I wasn't driving it far or often I didn't get it looked...

Hey peeps, wuzzup? Missed ya (dang life-getting-in-the-way-of-my-personal-life)! This is as much snow as I ever want to see on Big Red. Happened 2 winters ago when we lived in Reno - came out from work to an unforseen blizzard and managed to accumulate about an inch on the 2-mile, 45-minute...

Craig - did you ever get the problem diagnosed? My right real wheel is making a sound (like tire noise if the top was down - which is ISN'T) at speeds above about 30 mph. I'd like to think it is something minor but I don't have the nerve (read: cash) to drive it to the dealer, 14 miles at...

Check your private mail! :w

Add my thanks, Patrick - I have the same thing ('98 red convertible w/ black top, too!) and this has been bugging me since I got the car 2+ years ago. Since it's going back to the dealer for an unrelated problem, I will get the seat fixed now! :-)

People who like red like to be noticed. They like attention, energy and activity. Psychological theory states that people who have red as a preference in color are "the lives of the party." Fun to be around, extroverted and (in some cases) exhibitionist. Red is the ultimate power color. That's...

Oops, look what I started! :naughty: Let us all be thankful that we are putting that liquid gold into a Vette. My husband's Tundra gets about 13 mpg on a good day with a tailwind, going downhill, I'm averaging 21+- mpg combined city-highway (aka SoCal driving = 70 mph one second, then zero...

I paid $4.03(point 9)/gal last night for Chevron Supreme. $70+ to fill the tank. And that wasn't even at the expensive Chevron! ;help

Well Zag has the white 'vert, I've got the red one - CALLING ALL SAN DIEGANS WITH A BLUE C5 'VERT!!!!! p.s. to Remo: you just hush up! Mr. Pinky was telling me all about some show he had seen about Lingenfelter Corvettes...in that lethal combination of awe and longing in his voice...

Patrick, I'd be glad to drive down to the docks & wave goodbye. With the top down of course. :w:Steer p.s. it was 67 degrees here yesterday. :beer

Nope! I got enough of that last year - and moved to San Diego! :upthumbs (oops guess I should update my profile & picture)

I bought the extended warranty and it paid for itself 2x over in the first 2 months. I think the previous owner probably got rid of the car because the original warranty had expired and the 2 things wrong with it would've been exhorbitant to fix without a warranty. Buy it.:upthumbs

Hey - was that you that waved at me the other day? :w Signed, 4,500 ft.

I paid $27,000 a year ago for my '98 convertible. It had under 25,000 miles on it. I don't think it has any "extras" other than the convertible, what else could it possibly need (cough Borlas cough)? :chuckle
