2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is an American sports car. So when GM tossed me the keys to a 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible, it was thrilling. After all, the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible lists for $51,390 with a 3 year/36,000 mile warranty and an EPA estimate of 17 mpg city/27 mpg highway.
If you've always dreamed of a Corvette, the 2006 Corvette Convertible is the most technologically advanced, roadworthy and usable Corvette you could imagine. I loved driving it around. For $70,000 you get a 505 hp monster with a 7.0 liter V8 engine that will undoubtedly pin you to your seat at full throttle. By some measures, the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a bargain. Measure it against the Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, Dodge Viper or BMW Z4 M Roadster, and the horsepower per dollar equation favors the Chevy. It may be the best bang for the buck in the category.

The challenge for Corvette comes not from above, but from below. How can you justify spending over $50,000 for a Chevrolet Corvette Convertible when you can pick up a Mazda MX-5 Miata, a Pontiac Solstice GXP or a Saturn Sky Red Line for under $30,000? Or how about a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible, which is rated to produce 505 hp for around $47,000?

The good news is that there are lots of good choices out there. I can't wait to drive them all - but I would gladly drive the Corvette Convertible every day.

Corvette Z06 and Corvette Z07

Corvette Z06

Corvette Z06 refers to a super high-performance version of the Chevrolet Corvette.

The 1963 Corvette Z06 could only be ordered in the Coupe body style, just like today's Z06 but only being able to order the option in the Fixed Roof Coupe. The original Corvette Z06 cars were also limited production cars with only 199 being built in five production runs. The first cars were built for established racers such as Mickey Thompson. Six cars were built in October
1962 and sold to the dealers that sponsored Corvette race teams. These cars were picked up at the factory in Saint Louis and driven on the road to California. Within weeks the Z06 Sting Ray had won its first race at Riverside.

The Corvette Z06 was an outstanding car from the start. To drive the car on the street was very enjoyable and not many cars in their stock configuration could keep up with Corvette Z06. From the outside there was no way to tell that the car was a Corvette Z06, the badging was the same as the normal fuel injected Corvette. The best Corvette yet? Well, ask any Corvette owner and they'll tell you which is the best...theirs.

Corvette Z07

The Corvette Z07 is a phenomenon. Despite a substandard interior, its power, dynamics, and styling have given it international credibility the C5 struggled to achieve and the gold-chain-inspiring C3 and C4 could only dream of. Now it's talked of as a competitor for Porsche 911, Aston Martin V-8 Vantage, various BMW Ms, and Mercedes AMGs.

Word in Detroit is the long-awaited Corvette Z07, codenamed the Blue Devil after Rick Wagoner's alma mater's NCAA team, is now called Z07. Purists at GM have balked at naming it the Corvette SS, after Zora Arkus-Duntov's definitive Chevy sport racer. Corvette Super Sport had been the expected name for the last year or so.

It's not coming as soon as you'd hoped: It'll be a 2009 model. Bet on the 505-horsepower Z06 becoming the standard C7 Corvette.

The Corvette Z07/SS/Blue Devil is fast becoming one of the worst kept secrets in Detroit. It's not for GM's lack of trying to keep the lid on it, but rather on account of the zealous nature of the Corvette Nation. They're an impatient bunch and are having a hard time waiting for next year's North American International Auto Show in Detroit, where many suspect the super Corvette will bow.

The shaky shots could show some serious braking hardware and what appears to be more extreme air extractor vents behind the front wheels. Aside from that, it appears the Corvette Z07 may look much like the Z06. We have to qualify all this with the disclaimer that the car is most likely not a final production model and may be nothing like what we eventually see on stage in January. Still, a polycarbonate window? We admit, didn't see that one coming.

Chevrolet Watch

What is your first association with the Chevrolet brand? First things that most probably come into your head are undoubtedly American spirit and cool American cars. But mostly peaple don't know that Louis Chevrolet, the founder of the brand, had Swiss roots as he was born in La Chaux-de-Fonds in a family of a Swiss master watchmaker. From his childhood, Louis was overwhelmed by a great passion for watches and helped his father at the workbench.

For the first time in the history of the legendary brand, the link between Chevrolet and watchmaking is restored through launching the Louis Chevrolet watch brand. The brand has already created its first watch collection. Frontenac, the name of the collection, has been suggested by the name of the race car company founded by Louis Chevrolet. Among the timepiece you will discover automatic, manually-wound and quartz watch models.

The creators of the Louis Chevrolet watches have provided the pieces with the styling cues inspired by the Chevrolet founder and his cars. They try to apply the same materials as used in the car industry. Pearled appliques on the watches' dials will make you think of the metal forms sported on the old dashboards. The movements have also been decorated in the spirit of the famous car producer. The number '8,' Chevrolet's racing number, is found on the back.

Louis Chevrolet watches are distinguished due to the unique design and are produced in very limited series. Some of the timepiece may be personalization according to the wishes of the customer. The Louis Chevrolet watch brand wants to maintain a flexible approach towards watch production to match the present-day needs of the market, still remaining devoted to the philosophy of the brand.

The Louis Chevrolet watches are manufactured in Courgenay, the Swiss Jura region. Meanwhile, a new building is being constructed in Porrentruy and the manufacture will be moving there by the end of 2007.

The timepieces are powered by ETA and Ronda movements. The range of mechanisms comprises one manual mechanical movement, four automatic mechanical movements, two quartz movements, including one chronograph big date and one GMT big date.

Louis Chevrolet distributes its distinctively styled timepieces in the traditional manner, through finding distributors in different parts of the world. The brand has planned to distribute its watches to about a dozen countries during the initial period, with America as a major target. At the present moment, the Louis Chevrolet watches are being distributed in Switzerland, Spain, and France.

2009 Corvette SS

Let's have a look at what the Corvette staff have been working up for the ultra-fast coupe class, the 2009 Corvette SS. At least SS is the name most used in referring to this 600-plus-hp, supercharged beauty. You might think it looks like today's Corvette, except for the tape over the fenders and the black covering on the hood. But you'd be wrong.

Let’s go through the subtle—but very important—changes needed to make this a 200-mph car for the track. We think the hood covering hides a new bulge there—a necessary tweak to make room for that supercharger nestled near the Corvette at the top of the 6.2-liter V8 engine.

There's also a solid possibility that the new hood on the new Corvette is made of carbon fiber instead of the traditional Corvette fiberglass. If so, that's a major move toward weight savings. Based on the black top we’ve seen on our spy shots of this puppy in blue and then again in red—though it’s new to the yellow, which we’ve also already seen—we feel even more strongly that the prototypes are already carrying carbon-fiber black roof panels.

You might check out the stingy aero lip atop the deck in the rear. That’s new to the Corvette line, and a necessary accessory when traveling at high speed: At speed, the lip catches the air stream and forces the stream upward, creating a down pressure on the rear wheels (always good to have ultimate traction when moving at this car's hyperspeeds).

That black lower rear fascia arrangement surrounding the exhaust tips also looks new to us.

The rear view also shows new, stingy "mud flaps" that extend the fenders to cover the width of the Michelin tires. We told you before that Michelin and Goodyear were bidding for the tire contract for this vehicle, and so far it’s looking good for Michelin to take Good years off the Corvette for the first time ever. The Michelin sidewall details include "light load" and "outside" designations, with separate designs for each wheel. Rear wheels probably have an aspect ratio of 35 on 20-in. rims. Another detail near the fender is hidden beneath the black tape—probably two separate slots for air evacuation.

Finally, we see the design of the wheels themselves once again. Behind the dual five-spoke design on the outside of the rims, there are 10 additional spokes set inboard. As with the carbon-fiber body parts, the wheel design offers ultra-light, unsprung weight to aid handling and ride and to cut down on the vehicle's overall weight. Boy, is this beauty gonna need it.

Corvette. Leasing Vehicles

Benefits of Corvette Lease

There are various benefits of leasing a car as opposed to buying outright, depending on the requirements of the individual, and some finance options have greater benefits to businesses and companies than individuals, and other options favouring the individual over the business-user.

In general, leasing a new car costs less than financing the vehicle with a loan, with monthly payments being cheaper (up to 60% in some circumstances) than the repayments for a personal loan. Worries about maintaining and repairing faulty cars are also reduced, as most people lease for a lesser period than Corvette's own warranty. Negotiating a deal for your leased car usually works out cheaper initally, with down-payments being very low. However, be advised that a higher initial deposit usually means lower montly payment costs. Also bear in mind that the deposit is not returned to you after your contract period expires, making the 'deposit' word misleading.

Corvette Contract Types at www.askaprice.com

Business Contract Hire
Lease a business car for an agreed period of time (usually between 24 to 48 months). Pay an agreed fixed monthly instalment and the predicted depreciation of the vehicle plus interest.

Personal Contract Hire

Lease a car for personal use for an agreed period of time (usually between 24 to 48 months). Pay an agreed fixed monthly instalment and the predicted depreciation of the vehicle plus interest.

Finance Lease

A lease covering only the finance element of the vehicle. The customer pays back the entire capital cost of the vehicle plus charges over a period of time, or they may agree to a balloon payment to reduce the monthly instalments.

Short Term Contract Hire

Use of a vehicle for a fixed short period of time (usually from 2 to 24 months) with a predetermined mileage at a fixed monthly cost without owning the vehicle and having the hassle involved in running and maintaining the vehicle.

Personal Contract Purchase

Personal contract purchase (PCP) is similar to contract hire where an individual can lease a vehicle (subject to status) for a fixed monthly payment usually from 12-48 months with a low initial payment with a fixed mileage over an agreed period.

Commercial Contract Hire

Lease a commercial vehicle for an agreed period of time (usually between 24 to 48 months). Pay an agreed fixed monthly instalment and the predicted depreciation of the vehicle plus interest.

Chevrolet Dealer’s Secrets

Chevrolet Dealer's Secret 1: Consumer Incentives

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

Chevrolet Dealer's Secret 2: Finance & Insurance

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

Chevrolet Dealer's Secret 3: Additional Costs

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

Chevrolet Dealer's Secret 4: Trade-in Value

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Classic. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership.

Chevrolet Dealer's Secret 5: Dealer Holdback

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

Chevrolet Dealer's Secret 6: Dealer Incentives

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate.

Chevrolet Corvette. Early History

The Chevrolet Corvette is a sports car that has been manufactured by Chevrolet since 1953. It is built today at a General Motors assembly plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky, but in the past it was built in Flint, Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri. It was the first all-American sports car built by an American car manufacturer. The National Corvette Museum and annual National Corvette Homecoming are also located in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

History of Chevrolet Corvette.

While the style of a car may be just as important to some as to how well the car runs, it was not until 1927, when General Motors hired designer Harley Earl, that automotive styling and design became important to American automobile manufacturers. What Henry Ford did for automobile manufacturing principles, Harley Earl did for car design. Most of GM's flamboyant "dream car" designs of the 1950s are directly attributable to Earl, leading one journalist to comment that the designs were "the American psyche made visible." Harley Earl loved sports cars, and GIs returning after serving overseas in the years following World War II were bringing home MGs, Jaguars, Alfa Romeos, and the like. In 1951, Nash Motors began selling a two-seat sports car, the Nash-Healey, that was made in partnership with the Italian designer Pinin Farina and British auto engineer Donald Healey. Earl convinced GM that they also needed to build a two-seat sports car. Earl and his Special Projects crew began working on the new car later that year, which was code named "Opel." The result was the 1953 Corvette, unveiled to the public at that year's Motorama car show. The original concept for the Corvette emblem incorporated an American flag into the design, but was changed well before production since associating the flag with a product was frowned upon.

Taking its name from the corvette, a small, maneuverable fighting frigate (the credit for the naming goes to Myron Scott), the first Corvettes were virtually handbuilt in Flint, Michigan in Chevrolet's Customer Delivery Center, now an academic building at Kettering University. The outer body was made out of then-revolutionary fiberglass, selected in part because of steel quotas left over from the war. Underneath that radical new body were standard Chevrolet components, including the "Blue Flame" inline six-cylinder truck engine, two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, and drum brakes from Chevrolet's regular car line. Though the engine's output was increased somewhat, thanks to a triple-carburetor intake exclusive to the Corvette, performance of the car was decidedly lackluster. Compared to the British and Italian sports cars of the day, the Corvette was underpowered, required a great deal of effort as well as clear roadway to bring to a stop, and even lacked a "proper" manual transmission. Up until that time, the Chevrolet division was GM's entry-level marque, known for excellent but no-nonsense cars. Nowhere was that more evident than in the Corvette. A Paxton supercharger became available in 1954 as a dealer-installed option, greatly improving the Corvette's straight-line performance, but sales continued to decline.

GM was seriously considering shelving the project, leaving the Corvette to be little more than a footnote in automotive history, and would have done so if not for two important events. The first was the introduction in 1955 of Chevrolet's first V8 engine since 1919, and the second was the influence of a Soviet emigre in GM's engineering department, Zora Arkus-Duntov. Arkus-Duntov simply took the new V8 and backed it with a three-speed manual transmission. That modification, probably the single most important in the car's history, helped turn the Corvette from a two-seat curiosity into a genuine performer. It also earned Arkus-Duntov the rather inaccurate nickname "Father of the Corvette."

Another key factor in the Corvette's survival was Ford's introduction, in 1955, of the two-seat Thunderbird, which was billed as a "personal luxury car", not a sports car. Even so, the Ford-Chevrolet rivalry in those days demanded that GM not appear to back down from the challenge. The "T-Bird" was changed to a four-seater in 1958. And the1957 Chevrolet Corvette Bel Air is one of the most recognizable American cars of all time.
