[BONESTOCKC5]

Going to put the car on the market this week, thought I'd let some people know. 2003 Lamborghini Orange,
427ci. 541rwhp-533rwtq, 72k miles on car, 10k on motor.
27,900 Best offer consider selling with cam only motor(5.7) or trade for CTS-V????

This car is a great everyday driver, you can take it on road trips or out to the track! I have driven out to the Black Hills, SD for the corvette ralley several times no problems. Quarter Mile times are in full street trim as is best time 11.10@127.9mph. No one will be disappointed, I have done everything to the car myself, I'm a ASE Master Tech and have worked on cars for 15years. Car was a DRM heads and cam car, with suspension mods. Then I did the rest of the mods to the car.

Any chance you'd want to trade for an SVT Cobra? We've been eying up something different....

[OhMannClint]

That thing looks so stock, killer.
I've got a friend with no money to do his C5 that would really like this car.

Your e-85 mileage figure is inaccurate. As e-85 contains 30% less energy per unit than gasoline, it will require 30% more units to make the car go the same distance. Something is not right here... Your figure is only 10% - not possible unless you have a massive tuning problem on the gasoline side

E85 can be tuned for lean cruise, where the car is 15-16:1 at light throttle to save fuel. It doesn't hurt anything because of all the extra octane.

I'm guessing that's the case here.

Beautiful car by the way. I'm sure the new owner will be happy. I think I've seen this hanging around the dyno at Car Craft in the past?

An efficient lean cruise tune and increases in thermal efficiency can narrow the gap between the BTU content of a gallon of gasoline and E85. If the internal combustion engine was 100% efficient on either fuel, you would be correct. Here, you are not.

This car is pure sexy. I'm not even really a fan of C5's, but I'd rock the shit out of this (if I had any money).

Gorgeous car + good price = free bump!

[95.0mark]

Great tastefull looking vette. gl with the sale.

[BONESTOCKC5]

I've driven all the way to springfied, mi with E-85 with that mileage calculated., and have been on gas, Andy at Dynotune has it set. This is pure cruising MPG. Not having fun, but going own the highway. WOT is totally different, if you're road tripping, this can get awesome mileage. Vette's rock on mileage

I have seen said car in person and the pics dont do it justice, car is show room condition

[Mr Raced]

The best i ever got on my c5 was 32mpg, cant beat that !!!
