my first car by
Cam F
I'm sixteen and looking for my first car, I've seen local ads for
a '74 and a '79 corvettes priced at $5100 and $5800. In the ad for the
74 is says it needs brakes, a rear bumper, and has splits from the

quality of corvettes by
cris
I loved corvettes for as long as I can remember. As a young boy, I had corvette models and toy cars, shirts with corvettes on them, and any time I saw one on the road I would stare in wonder. I always said, someday, I will own a corvette.
About 2 and a half years ago, my finances and my luck...

for the BMW NG) - maybe 200...

Run Flat tire question by
H and A
Found a nail in the tread portion on one of my Goodyear Run Flat tires.
Once removed, is this something that can be plugged, without harming the
tire pressure sensor? Any thing special I need to know about repairing the
tire before I remove the nail?

C6 by

Well that didn't go well, the dealer still has the C6. We were close on the
money but I wouldn't give and walked away. The salesman that was talking to
my girl friend before he found out it was ordered for me told her the C6
would blow away the C5. That just isn't so, and it is so close to my CE...

I used to own a vet, a 1979, which I sold quite a long time ago.
Summers coming and I find myself which some extra cash so I have been
looking in the paper for a late model corvette. I researched that a
new model came out in 2005 so I thought I would look around for a used

Got my second Vette - oil question by
Empty3
All,
I bought a 2000 Vette (other one is a 1990); both are coupes.
The 2000 has heads-up display. The "trip" gauge states that oil has 53% life.
My question, what is a good rule of thumb to change the oil; i.e. at what % should I change?
Also, the oil pressure appears to be broken (since it is...
