The 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
This is probably my first featured Chevrolet car in weeks that’s why I would spend sometime getting into the tasty details. Basically, I was busy doing lots of things that have something to do with my Chevrolet business while at the same time looking for a place where I can spend a few days on vacation. Moving on, the featured Chevy car for this post is the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. Basically it is a buxom and sporty ride that you wouldn’t miss if you see it on the road. This car was introduced by my good friend a couple of weeks ago in one car show and needless to say, I fell in love with it immediately.
So what’s with the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible? When it comes to the engine, it features a 6.2 liter LS3 small block V-8 while boasting a massive 430 hp. Let me put it this way, this car is not only fast it was also designed to be very powerful as well. Aside from that, this road devil is also capable of producing as much as 436 horses and 428 lb-ft torque force. Hence, it is no wonder that this super car can race up to 190 mph while accelerating from 0-60 mph in just 4.3 seconds. Needless to say, this car can get you off your seat in a jiffy. Honestly, I’ve never tried being behind its steering wheel but if given a chance, I’m more than willing to do it.
After the engine, the Chevrolet Corvette Convertible also has impressive driving dynamics that even the average driver and car owner can appreciate. It has a hydrofoamed steel rail backbone structure that provides excellent maneuverability and aerodynamic capacity. In short, if you’re in love with power and speed, this car has them both. As far as the aesthetics is concerned, this car has a power-operated soft-top that can be raised or lowered depending on the driver. Its fine contours and lines also make this car visually attractive to just about anyone.
Meanwhile, the interior of the car is anything but second-class. When I first saw this car’s interior in one car show, I knew for certain that this one was made with high-quality materials crafted by the best hands in the business. Moreover, the car has fender forms and exposed headlamps with a smooth grille creating a sophisticated look that every car owner would love for his or her car. Of course, the car manufacturers didn’t want to leave anything when it comes to creature comforts. It has a standard AM/FM radio and CD player although it can be customized to fit the car owner. Well, if that’s still not enough, the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is only pegged around 53,510 USD which I think is a fairly decent amount considering how much you’re going to get from it.
2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Daytona 500 Pace Car
I was totally blown away when I first saw the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Daytona 500 Pace Car for the first time. Although the release of this car dates back from 2006, I only had glimpse of this online and through magazines. Last week, I had the chance to see this when I attended a friend’s party. The guy who brought this beauty totally knows a lot about cars and yes, he’s also a huge fan of Chevrolet autos.
The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Daytona 500 Pace Car is the fastest auto that has ever been created by General Motors even until now, although I believe another concept car is underway that is faster. Meanwhile, it boasts a 505 hp from its 7.0 liter engine and as far as acceleration is concerned, it gets to 60 mph in only about 3.7 seconds while its top speed reaches a maximum of 198 mph. Stats wise, this one is good enough to be part of the super car category needless to say. If you have any heart ailments, being at the helm of its steering wheel may not be a very bright idea.
This car also uses very light materials while having fine contours and lines that are extremely attractive to the eyes. I asked the guy who brought this what he felt driving this one and he told me that since this is his first super car, the feeling is unexplainable. He didn’t tell me the price though even if I was asking him repeatedly. All I can say is that, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Daytona 500 Pace Car is a good choice if you want supreme power and performance from your auto.

On the Verge
This is a follow to my post earlier this week about my probable appointment in Europe and before you guys start guessing which country, it’s high time that you guys should know about it already: Russia. Yes, that’s right admittedly I have never been there but staying there for 10 months sans my family, friends and Chevrolet cars? I guess that’s quite an ordeal isn’t it? To tell you honestly I have been having a very difficult time deciding ever since my boss told me that I got the job. Don’t get me wrong because I love the opportunity to travel but when I say travel that should only last for several days and not 10 freaking months!
After a not so mild conversation with my mom and dad, I’ve finally concluded that I will not be going anywhere much to the delight of my friends and to the disappointment of my boss. I’ve weighed my options very well, I know Russia is a foreign country and that being in a different culture is something that I’ve always wanted and most people would lose a limb just to be in my position. But after asking several senior members of my company about the offer, everyone told me not to accept it. Why? Because I will be there to work as an employee of my company and not as a tourist that is something that is farthest from my mind right now. There enough said, I can’t wait to get back to my daily routine and plan a trip to Cambodia a month from now. Ciao for now.
Decisions, errrrr Decisions
I will be leaving for Europe since I will be sent there by my company for a 10-month stay. Although things are not final yet, I am looking forward to my appointment there since this will be the first time in 5 years that I will be leaving mainland USA. That’s the reason why I wasn’t able to blog (again) for several days, I have been busy fixing some paperwork and thinking whether I should accept the offer or not.
Although I will be leaving behind my dog, mother and brother and my start-up Chevrolet car business, the whole fracas is somewhat unnerving. My car business is doing extremely well and I can even project that in three months time, I can afford to resign from my day job and do what I love the most for the rest of my life: being surrounded by Chevrolet cars everyday. Meanwhile, before I get too sentimental, here’s what I found over the internet when I was browsing for auto news.
General Motors vice president for sales and marketing Jonathan Browning recently announced that Chevrolet has what it takes to rival Opel in Europe. The good thing is that Chevrolet’s growth is seen in the huge Eastern and European market where cheap and economical cars are very attractive.
Meanwhile, the Russians have now become the biggest fans of Chevrolet cars since Russia recently became its largest European market. So there, this was simply an excerpt from the whole article and I ever land a job in Europe, I will certainly ask for a Chevrolet car from my company.
I know it’s going to be a tough decision since I have no idea what’s in store for me when I get there but as my Dad always reminded me “you gotta do what you gotta do”. So there, I will keep you guys posted and even if I end up in Europe sometime next week, I will make sure that the blogs about Chevrolet will keep on coming
