AutoHunter Spotlight: 2004 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
AutoHunter Spotlight: 2004 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

2004 Chevrolet Corvette Marks the end of an era. This is the final model year for the fifth-generation model. It was also the end of pop-up headlights and the LS1 V8. But this 22K-mile 2004 Chevrolet Corvette convertible showing up on AutoHunter, the online auction platform powered by ClassicCars.com, could be the start of your unforgettable convertible adventure. It’s what’s called “turnkey”—in some ways. Look at it. Red is always a great color for Werther, especially this rich magnetic red metallic. What's not here is also attractive. There's no roof unless you want it, and the light oak soft top goes well with the body color. When the weather gets bad, it has a heated rear window through which you can clearly see everyone behind you (a common experience for Corvette drivers). Then there are features. On sunny days, you can crank up the air conditioning on the dual-zone automatic climate control system, and the light oak leather bucket seats…

NASCAR History Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Fall Auction
NASCAR History Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Fall Auction

as former owner As far as a Pace car from Dover Downs goes, I tend to like Pace cars as well as replicas for sale to the public. I know I'm not alone, because the Chevrolet Heritage Collection features a variety of admirable race cars from two popular NASCAR racing events. Twenty-one of the works will be offered at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Fall Auction at Westworld, October 10-13, 2024. While the most famous pace cars come from the Indianapolis 500, the following featured cars come from Indy's Brickyard 400, which has been part of the NASCAR series since 1994. While not officially roadworthy, the horsepower and custom livery of the featured race cars below set them apart from the mainstream models sold to the public. 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Z06The 2007 Corvette Z06 needs no introduction, but in case you need a reminder, it's a sibling C6 powered by a 505-horsepower LS7 7.0-liter small-block mated to a six-speed manual transmission.

AutoHunter Spotlight: 2004 BMW M3 Convertible

Featured Automatic Hunteran online auction platform operated by ClassicCars.com, is this 2004 BMW M3 Convertible. BMW's website calls "M" the "most powerful letter in the world." It also says: "BMW M is part of an extraordinary motorsport history and stands for a passion for high performance – a passion that can be felt every day, on the street and on the racetrack." The M division's origins date back to 1972; since then, the group has designed some of the world's most popular driving machines. One of the most brilliant achievements of BMW's performance division is the M3 compact executive sedan. In front of us today is just such a stunning car in Titan Silver, which has a color-matched hardtop, relatively low mileage and an unmodified powertrain. It is being sold by a dealer in Jensen Beach, Florida, and the auction ends on Wednesday. The E46 is the fourth generation of the BMW 3 Series, sold in North America from 1999…

Diego's AutoHunter Picks
Diego’s AutoHunter Picks

I don't think so It would be presumptuous of me to say that most enthusiasts reading this week's AutoHunter picks love speed. But what if that speed doesn't come from an engine that uses gasoline and oxygen to perform some kind of combustion? Boy, this gets political fast! But a while ago, people shared a video of a 50-year-old Japanese car being driven on a drag strip. That Datsun had gone electric, and people were excited about it. Now it looks like the end of the world has come! So, is it safe to say that you would only consider three of the four cars listed below? Or does the LS-powered Pontiac bother you, too? 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1The Mustang may be the most popular collector car, but its many fans have mixed feelings about the 1971 redesign—yes, it was bigger and heavier, but not as much as you might think. However, if you add the new 429 Cobra…

2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10 with 1,700 miles

Today's Picks A 2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10 listed on ClassicCars.com by a private seller. Over the past few decades, American performance trucks have changed significantly in two ways. The basic concept is no longer what it once was. In the 1990s and 2000s, factory-modified trucks were single-cab, short-bed, rear-wheel-drive, and had plenty of power under the hood. Think back to the Chevy 454 SS and Ford F-150 SVT Lightning, especially the supercharged second-generation models. Now, Ram and Ford are making their performance pickups fly across the dunes at breakneck speeds. The Blue Oval's current Lightning has astonishing acceleration...thanks to all-electric power. And as time goes by, super trucks are getting higher and higher in power levels. Now that the Ram 1500 TRX is gone, the 720-horsepower Ford Raptor R is the apex predator. As capable as these new pickups are, they can't match the insanity of the 2004-2006 Dodge Ram SRT-10. The same year Ford discontinued the supercharged F-150 SVT…
