    Why is everyone selling..

    I am at the point that I am thinking of picking up dirt cheap 2012 or 2013 5.0, throw on a supercharger and some basic suspension and have a stupid fast car for cheap.

    New to me car….C6 Z06

    I had this exact car, clone of my previous Z06. I had that nightmare in my head of my roasted engine and the car on the side of the road. I really cannot think of another car that I have liked the looks and spec sheet better than the C6Z, even to this day I still think about getting back into...

    New to me car….C6 Z06

    Ouch! I did allot of research when I had my Z, did you happen to down shift at a high RPM? I have heard once the valves are changed out, so long as you are not downshifting aggressively you should be good to go.

    New to me car….C6 Z06

    It's the exhaust valves that are the issue, so if the head is done and they are replaced should be good to go.

    New to me car….C6 Z06

    I had a C6 Z06, and really enjoyed it. I had it for about two years and sold it, got killed on it since the vales were not done. I never drove it hard for fear for the valve issue and sold it before anything happened. One piece of advice, if you plan to use the car to actually go somewhere, you...

    Considering 2011 GT500, help me!

    It looks like a clean car. I would not be worried about the miles, that's if it was a one owner and someone drove it and enjoyed it. The engine bay isn't prefect, but to me I like that in a used car. Some used car places clean the entire engine bay, then you cannot really get a sense of how the...

    First ride in Dark Horse

    There are some YouTubers that annoy me, but can get past it since their content is good. This guy is not only over the top annoying, he’s really a complete moron. I’m thinking people watch his videos because they are mesmerized by how much of a douche bag he is.

    Just one reason why I haven't logged into Facebook for weeks....

    I’ve never had Facebook and never been on any social media except a few car forums. I don’t think I’m missing anything, it’s just a race to the bottom with that crap.

    Slight coolant smell. 2013 Shelby GT500

    There could be a few reasons for that smell. I noticed you have aftermarket caps on your coolant tanks, could have had one of them bubble over on a hot day. Other issue could be that previous owner did a coolant flush and spilled some in the engine bay? I had the ford dealer drain and refill my...

    Tune?

    Why do you want to tune it? In my opinion, the 2013/14 make great power, just lack a little on the traction side. Have you thought about upgrading some of the suspension, and seeing how it handles, then doing the tune?

    Solar panels

    I think the future will be a better quality battery back up. Once that happens solar could make sense, until then it’s all just wishful thinking.

    83k mile mystic

    I always say, look for the best example you can find, least number of owners. There is a premium with these cars for a good example. I would pay 5-10k more for a car that I knew had 1-2 owners, had a history and documentation. When you are looking at an almost 30-year-old car you cannot be...

    FOR SALE: 2013 Shelby GT500 Absolutely Beautiful!

    It’s hard to say. These are the last of the true “shelby” cars, and I think some folks down the road will appreciate what these cars were. While they should be 45-50k cars, if someone pays 60k for a perfect example, I think in time it will prove to be a good decision.

    2013/2014 Value ?

    Check out Pentagon Federal Credit union, or Light Stream. The dealer sometimes says nonsense to prep you for a higher rate and pumps up the rate to pad the profit on the sale. I like buying these types of cars only after I have secured my own financing.

    RIP GM Bolt

    We’re not far from a total failure in the EV market, there is only so much demand, they cannot figure out how to get past 300 miles, and the charging sucks. I could go out today and buy an EV from almost any manufacturer. The market will bare what it can, but this massive push to put out as...
